Its two different perspectives. One is controlling a character as if they are controlling a camera from the rear. The other is the more common, where you're using the joystick to move the point that you're looking at.
Which way should the text on your screen move when you spin the mouse wheel? :P
You spin the mouse wheel to control the scroll bar, so of course spinning the wheel towards you (down, if you align the mouse with the screen), should make the scroll bar go down.
This was, for a long time, uncontroversial. However, after touch screens became widely used, people started incorrectly assuming that the mouse wheel "moves the screen" (absolutely ludicrous), and decided that down was up and up was down, and that the sane way to scroll with a mouse wheel or touch pad was "inverted" and not "sane"/"normal".
Mhm, it's all about perspective. Moving the viewport or the content. The viewport or the viewer, for first person. Ideally you should always have the option to choose.
