Why does Halo 2 look worse than Halo 1? The shadows. Or well, the lack of them (www.youtube.com)

Environment and character work was generally great in 4, but just look at that Phantom 'explodes' in the very first mission... It's remarkable how weak some of the presentation in the game was. While 4 did have some talented people working on the franchise still, it was obvious by then that 343 no longer cared and QA was absent. Also way way too much lens flare
