The FAQ says that the game will only have 480p support...which is ok, I guess...but I have an HDTV whose native resolution is 720p. The game would look SO nice with the higher resolution! Why the heck can't the highest-profile game coming to the Xbox have support for what the system can do? Isn't there any way we could convince Bungie to put it in there?

Dude, no it doesn't. 480p is the same resoultion as regular TV, just without the opposing scanlines. Same resolution, but sent as one whole image.

It's still HD, and it's still better than analog.

It is better, but imagine how good the game would look in high-res. Halo 1 had really really nice textures that would've been great for high res, but the feature was never there. With Halo2 they have a chance to correct this and show off their awesome texture work, but they're choosing not to. I mean, how much extra work could it be just to support a high res signal?
