If you read it over slowly, it makes sense. Anyway, any sci fi game must have Technobabble by that definition, or it will have no explanation for it's science. That is why I like Star Wars so much. They don't dwell on how a piece of technology works, unless it's in the published technical manuals. Halo's technobabble exists for similar reasons, for the people who actually care about knowing how it works. There's only a few sci-fi franchises that use advanced tech without making it cheesy: Star Wars, Halo, and Mass Effect(and even ME is pushing it a little).
