I'd say Halo 1 had a better subtle plot line in that it ever explicitly stated the plot until after the player figured it out. THe later games were a bit blunter- I agree that it would be nice if they went back to that subtle style of storytelling.
ODST wasn't bad, true. I just tend to think of it as pre-H3 rather than post, so my opinion on the writing isn't as strong.

Also since when was Halo brown/gray/etc? Maybe it's just because I've only seen the shit-quality versions floating about but one of my favourite things about Halo is that Bungie's never really been afraid of using colours liberally unlike so many other studios?
