It is skillful, but the actual physical reflex and hand-eye skill needed to get kills in Halo is more demanding. I find COD a much easier game to play and get kills in anyway.
It might be just me, but hopping around like a frog on meth, spraying rockets until one of two combatants has to go get additional ammo, isn't my definition of 'skillfull'.
That being said, I find Cod4/6 (hardcore, mind) to be the most demanding game I have played so far (though admittedly I never tried out halo).
Sure, Activision sucks ass, so does the IW-net, but even though cod4 was a great multiplayer experience, many people tend to overlook the vast improvements cod 6 brought (among them, on the risk of blowing your mind, more balanced killstreaks). It's nowhere near a perfect game, but among the best online-fps experiences I had so far.
