While I do enjoy CE (Combat Evolved, not Crota's End), I do feel that the sequels are superior in regards to how the campaign flows. The second half of CE was simply retreading much of the first half, and I personally find the Warthog Run at the end to be needlessly difficult and infuriating. For example, [i]Two Betrayals[/i] is a fun level on its own, but the fact that it's literally [i]Assault on the Control Room[/i] backwards makes it sort of boring when the game is played in a marathon.
