I will be the first to admit I am no Halo historian. However when I complained to some Halo-loving friends of mine about the terrible level design, they informed me that the reason for this was because the developers were rushed at the end. I was told that they needed Halo to be ready when the X-Box was released, because that was their feature game to sell the system for. I have no idea if this is true or not. It made sense to me and explains why an otherwise all-around decent game had the most bland levels I had seen for a long time. If this isn't the case... then I can't fathom why on earth they ended up with such crappy levels.
