For me personally, so long as the game isn't going 1 MPH and is maintaining a nice speed with a smooth frame rate, I couldn't care less what FPS rate it actually has, but it seems the rest or a very large amount of the community wants 60 FPS or nothing at all. Why do we want this? Does it really make a difference how fast frames are going by in a game so long as it still works and plays well and isn't moving at the speed of a turtle with an anchor tied to it?

Because playing with a lower framerate keeps you from seeing things moving faster than what the framerate can observe. for example, imaging a sniper shoots. You better see the line that the bullet makes with 60 fps, because there are more frames showing where the bullet is exactly. With 30 for example, you only see every other frame the the 60 fps framerate shows, which could make the bullet and all other quick movement look "choppy". I personally don't worry about framerate, though it should be at least 30-45 fps for the video to not look horribly laggy.
