The nuances Bungie's put into multiplayer mean that an Xbox can't handle 16 Spartans jumping around screaming "NUBCAKES!" all the time.
Also, Bungie has already stated that the beta's graphics engine is essentially a modified Halo 2 engine, and we can expect it to look next-gen on full release. Remember, the beta isn't for looks, it's for collecting important feedback.
Storm Rider:
No, it's to build hype. Let's be honest.
Dimmukane:
Well, I finally got my key and downloaded it. Started playing it, and it's been a blast. I found a secret tunnel in High Ground and stuff. Took people out with a turret. Threw grenades in the snow.

And I was like "holy shit, I can't even tell a difference."
I'm not saying you need amazing, eye fucking graphics to justify a sequel, but Halo 3 was supposed to be one of those games that would DEFINE next generation graphics. And from what I've seen, admittedly of a multiplayer beta, it's not that big of a step up from Halo 2.

We do realize we're talking about BETA here right?

i don't know why everyone is badmouthing the graphics. i think it's noticably prettier and cleaner than halo 2 already and it's only the beta. granted; it's not a huge difference but it is noticable.
also, the physics on dead bodies is much more complex and they impressed me when i first saw them in action.
my two cents. there they are.
note: i havent actually played yet so i cant reallly say anything about anything besides how it looks. i just happened to swing by my friends house after work and he was playing so i saw the game in action but havent had a chance to play yet.
