It happen with the PlayStation 2 and now its happening with the PlayStation3. Games on Sony system have that plastic look to it and its really annoying. Instead of aiming for realism, games on the PlayStation console tend to have the plastic thing going for them. Don't believe me? Here's an example

Check out the videos of NinjaGaiden Sigma, not only does Ryu look like plastic, so does the bosses, the enemies, weapons, everything. Don't get me started on GTHD...it feels like I'm driving around in HotWheels cars intead of real ones.

agreed

 

played the sigma demo and they didnt look plastic. I thought the graphics were amazing just the lighting effects were so-so. the enemies you fight before fighting these guys...you should see how detailed they are. i couldnt believe team ninja went that depth with the designs.

I think developers need to work on mirroring real-world specular better.

It's not PS3 games, its the developers that make the games look that way. But, Ryu's wearing leather armor, so of course it's going to be shiny.

I have played NG Sigma and Motorstorm, and while those pics looka little on the shiney side for NGS, when you playing the game, the only thing you think about visually is WOW, that is sweet looking game, plastic or fake never comes to mind while playing these games.
