There is black color on ODST and I'm pretty sure there is in Reach.

its too dark. easy to stand still in a corner and not be seen.

I've only played ODST a couple of times, but in the reach beta there was no black. i think brown was the darkest color

"It is not a goal, but a process. The process of creating the perfect world."

Black was too dark, even the weird "black" color in Halo 1 was too dark, it made blending in too easy. Wasn't a problem in ODST because the AI will notice you regardless of color, and there's no competitive game-play.

Not sure about reach, my guess is that you can choose it as a forced color like halo 3, but nothing else.

riot is to halo as batman is to gotham city

Black is a color in Halo Reach. Also, you can choose to give leader traits in custom games the darker steel armour color, which looks black.

It is for me =) Not telling you how though.

It's because black would be difficult to see in dark areas in MM.

reply to racism, it doesnt stop it... just taking out black...

Short answer? Because EVERYONE would use it. You know how often people use Steel in Halo 3? Yeah, crank that up to 11.
