Its not shiny at all. And its not meaty, either.

Look at the character models and environments, unbelievable. Go back to your hole, hermit.

He's wearing a suit, and his body is in proportion to everything else thus rendering your complaint invalid. And I thought the problem was shinyness, not character limbs? You're really grabbing for straws now...

The Unreal Engine 3.0 doesn't look fake, it looks fantastic. Time to go to the eye doctor for you, STALKER looks good but isn't anything that will stand out in 5 months.

My PC may not be able run any "good" games, such as STALKER (8.5/10) but I'll enjoy my superb Gears (9.6/10 ; 10/10 graphically) :D

As to prevent massive quotage: Graphcis are the overall presentation of a game including the lighting affects, character models, textures, etc. If something looks abhorrently unnatural its only natural that one would think it looks fake. (WOO HOO WORD GAMES). If oversized, unrealistic meat heads that look like they've taken a trip to the Blue Oyster bar and were dipped in a vat of vasoline and glitter are your thing, then go for it.

The character models look like ass...   Just like the rest of the game.

^^^ You realize, degrees, that we're talking opinions, and opinions CAN NOT be proven wrong right? Stabbing in the dark really. To me, the characters look abhorrently disproportional, even IF its some suit. Not to mention the overall presentation looks like something out of Boogey Nights. ONE OTHER MAJOR THING. Gamespot reviews games based on same genre same platform. Standards are vastly different on the PC , and directly compariing scores is WRONGITY WROGN WRONG.Vandalvideo

I understand what you're saying about STALKER, trust me (I was hyping this game in 2004 alongside Halo 2...), and I know that all the extra development time allowed them to create so many different graphical enhancements.
BUT, in this day of age, the Unreal Engine 3.0 is just so damn efficient to create gorgeous games, and when you take a developer like Bioware...well you get a damn good looking game.

As for the standards thing, yes, yes you are right. But currently, games on 360 are getting rated fairly similiar to PC games because it is still early in its console's life. Why do you think so many developer are releasing PC-oriented games simutaneously on the 360/PS3? Because both consoles can handle them and so developers would have to be idiots not to (examples: Quake Wars, Unreal Tournament 3, Oblivion, etc.). So where am I going with this? Well, currently (and I emphasize on the word currently), the PC and Xbox 360/PS3 are fairly close in hardware and graphical power (I understand that a fully rigged PC still can out-perform a 360), so they are reviewed on fairly similiar standards (in terms of graphics).
