The first time I encountered motion blur was GTA 3 for PC back in like 2003. It was awful so I've turned off motion blur on every game since. I have no idea why it was around then or still around now.
It was around so that low FPS games could make it look like they had a bit more frames, in the same way they do on TV. Swepping shots are actually really juddery when you notice.
