Here's how I see it, it takes "different" skill but not more. Those who say it does should do some gameplay and actually research it. Halo 3 I think it's 30-40% skill and the rest PURE luck with spawning and timing. Also your weapon over theirs.
COD I think is just camping and one shotting. COD is not really skill, but advantage. A 5 star general has way more perks than a recruit or a colonel so if it came down to it a general" with more exp" would easily win just from a couple little perks, not really skill.
However if a recruit did beat a general then I would put that into the skill category of COD.

COD takes no skill at all, It's just a sprint and one shot type of a game[/quote] But it does take skill to actually stay alive since you die so easily[/quote] The same argument could be used for saying that Call of Duty takes no skill. If getting kills is so easy, then it doesn't take as much (if any) skill to stay alive. In my opinion, weapon spawns and shields in Halo is what mainly makes it take more skill to play decently than Call of Duty. You could say that it's easier to stay alive in Halo than Call of Duty since it's harder to kill someone, but the weapon spawns compensate for that. [Edited on 09.11.2012 7:59 AM PDT]
