Best Game Overall:
1. Halo 1
2. Reach
3. ODST
4. Halo 3
5. Halo 4
6. Halo 2
While CE is lacking in extra features and options (a consequence of its age; we can't fault it for having features that weren't invented yet), it's such a great total package that tops the list in just about every other category. The Campaign is still the most fun to play, and while the MP was limited to LAN-only (unless you had the PC version, which I never did), it had great maps and it was a blast playing with friends. Reach's gameplay and Campaign aren't quite as good, but it has the best MP of any Halo game that's actually playable in XBL and it is the most feature-rich title in the series; it's biggest flaw is its story, which is riddled with retcons. At the other end of the scale, Halo 2 had a great story and some excellent MP map designs, but it suffered from many bad gameplay elements, including overly linear missions in Campaign as well as many game-breaking glitches in MP.
Best Gameplay:
1. Halo 1

4. Halo 4
5. Halo 3
6. Halo 2
Best Story:
1. Halo 1 & Halo 2 (tie)
3. ODST
4. Halo 3
5. Halo 4 & Reach (tie)
I've never been able to decide whether I liked the story in Halo 1 or 2 best. Halo 4 and Reach rank last for different reasons. Reach gets bad marks mainly because of the retcons, whereas Halo 4 is just plain sloppy.

1. Halo 1
