it comes down to your opinion of the art style which in this case doesn't reflect what the vast majority are saying

beyond that as cgi said most hd games do not try to achieve photo realism, games out this year like halo 4, borderlands 2, dishonored etc and even upcoming games like for example, bioshock infinite,  god of war ascension, gears judgement etc all have a unique artstyle

 

so i can't agree with the point the op is trying to push because he seems to wrongly believe in general hd games strive to achieve realism

Well, for one he didn't say HD games, he said games that employ photorealism, and listed Uncharted, CoD, Battlefield.

His idea runs off the hypothesis that, though they have unique styles, they contain humanoids and that would inevitably lead to the uncanny valley dilemma. Not that I agree with him, as you can see from my posts I have a different PoV, but I think you're looking at it wrong.
