I thought the whole point of HD is realism.

HD gives you a higher resolution for a sharper image. Geometry Wars is in HD. The Simpsons game is in HD. Neither are realistic. They just look nicer compared to if they were in SD. More graphical power allows developers to create games that look more realistic, but that's separate to high definition.
