Firstly Heres the problem.
Mass Effect 1 to this day still has by far the best character models of any console game. Gears, Killzone or Uncharted 2 just dont touch Mass Effect for character detail.
The game just needed to find a way to improve the textures of environments, and it would probably be considered the best graphics on consoles.
Mass Effect 2 looks like it is improving the environments a great a deal. So do one of these comparisons for environments. We already knew the character models were the best in the industry. The texture work on them is insane.
