Halo 2 was the least skill intensive Halo. CE was a much better game.

CE's campaign was terrible.We're talking about competitive shooters in this context so no, skill cap is an extremely important factor and campaign has nothing to do with it.

There's a consensus among my pro scene contacts that H2 is probably third out of all of them, CE>5>2>3=ZBNS (room for argument)>4>Vanilla Reach.

If you're going to talk about which games belong in a hall of fame--which is this thread's purpose--you have to focus on all aspects of the game, not just the competitive ones. Hence my response.If LC wasn't trying to say that Halo: CE belongs in the HoF based on its skill cap, then that's my bad.
