-blam!- Was that actually blammed out? Or did I just type it? You'll never know.

There was no real climax to it, and it didn't keep up the arc well.
Think of the trilogy in three act structure, exposition (CE), conflict (2), resolution (3). When you split the whole three act structure into three installments you ultimately make it a nine act structure, because each one should be broken into three. Halo three had this, however there was no real climax to Halo 3. The action and excitement had stayed fairly flat throughout it.
As well, its resolution of events was somewhat disappointing.
The Covenant level wasn't enough of a climax?
The fact that the climax is arguable shows you that there was no definitive climax. Some believe it is Cortana, others might think Halo, and Covenant and so on.
None of them gave a climactic conflict, because all the levels, even though they attempted to be veery grand in scale, were still fairly confined experiences.
