I think its fairly obvious that Bungie intentionally 'dumbed down' the graphics for the beta. Probably for two reasons:

1. Needed to be a reasonably sized download, and a full set of textures would have made download too big.
2. To keep some 'wow' factor for the game's release.

 

too many people seem to think of "beta" as an "advertisement" rather than what a beta actually is, a near-finished test product released to a group of people so they can iron out any bugs/balance features that exist. It is NOT a demo, it is a beta, which is a completely different animal. The reason that they didn't use the graphics of Halo 3 were quite simple, they were completely irrelevant to the task of a beta.

People bashing the Halo 3 beta graphics have absolutely no idea what they are talking about.
