H:CE, will forever be the greatest Halo out of them all. The skill gap was lightyears apart. Halo 2, still had a skill gap with the weapon glitches, which should never ever be removed. Halo 1 and Halo 2 glitches made you have to master the game to be on par with good players. Every Halo post H2 was ruined by incorporating other developers innovations. I don't care what anyone says, if you even throw Halo 3 into the category with the first two, you're ignorant.
343 need to go right back to Halo: CE, and Halo 2. Go back to the roots that made the franchise the monster it was. Stop incorporating stupid additives.
