Well, the boss battle was pretty much traveling through the Gravemind in the "Cortana" level. I'm just wondering how the entire mass that is the Gravemind is somehow 'floating' above that big gap underneath the Citadel? That or his tentacles are VERY long and can reach from the crashed High Charity all the way down to there....There's so much about the cutscene that just screams boss battle.
I think they were in the process of reinventing that particular scene but they ran out of time so they deleted most of Gravemind's model.
Or they ran into some legal issues that prevented them from fully depicting Gravemind (like Blofeld in his last official appearance in the James Bond films). :P
I agree with you. That would have been quite epic!

The Gravemind could've had access to the Ark's transportation grid just as it did Delta Halo's in Halo 2.
I was disappointed we didn't get a boss fight; that segment had a lot of potential.
Even if it did teleport, there's nothing underneath it but a chasm that probably drops into space on the other end. What someone said about it clinging to the walls of the chasm makes more sense. It's that or that thing has very, very long tentacles.
