Your logic is skewed. By what you are continually stating you are assuming that if Halo CE was added to xbox live (and I would even give it all the extra features that H3 has such as forge) that everyone would return to it and it would be the #1 Halo game on live. They just wouldn't. I can't say for you personally, and there certainly would be a small following, but I would bet my house that the majority of players would stay on H3.Of course it would, because you can't just pick up and play Halo 1, you have to get good at it, something Halo 3 really doesn't require.
H3 is better. HCE had great points, the simplicity and innovation of the FPS made it rise to the top, but the games have gotten progressively better. Graphics, gameplay, features, weapon variety, vehicles, etc. the game has gotten better and the number of players prove it.It has gotten popular, but not necessarily better. Popularity=/=Quality. Graphics have gotten better, you're right, but I don't play games for graphics. Maybe that's just me, as I'm an old-school gamer.
It's really up to opinion on whether gameplay has gotten better. In my opinion, it hasn't. Dual-wielding has made weapons that were once good, bad. It also made countless clones of the Assault Rifle. As for weapon variety, I guess Halo 3 wins, because it has the largest # of weapons, but they all function very similarly. I consider weapon variety by function, not number, and Halo 3 doesn't pass in this department.
