It's debatable, but the 'some reason' is probably that the backgrounds were pre-rendered.
This.
AO and AE's backgrounds were mattes built from scratch with 3D modeling and plenty of image manipulation. It would have taken alot of time, money, and memory - three things OWI didn't have at the time - to recreate that look in a navigable, three-dimensional environment. They certainly did better in that regard with SW though.

I love pre-rendered graphics, they're totally nostalgic.

yeah but even if you look at the 3d cutscenes in AE and AO, the graphics are still better than MO graphics.

Not... really. MO's cutscenes were crisper and smoother, it just lacked the atmosphere of the first two and was too steeped in cartoony slapstick for anyone to notice.

yeah i know what you mean, but the CUTSCENE graphics in AE/O were definatly better than the GAMEPLAY graphics in MO.

I am ignorant in this; my thought is that MO's graphic isn't good also beacuse it's one of xbox's first games (it came out in 2001, like xbox).
