Right, consoles. Fallout 3 now that i think of it looks very much like a "console" game, especially that shit vomit green filter (which turned into piss yellow in New Vegas).
It's also curious that you decided to pick up a game that looked like a cartoon on purpose (Borderlands) and a simulator running on an old engine (Arma 2), while ignoring the elephant in the room (Metro 2033, also released in 2010). Arma 2, for the record, actually looks better than New Vegas, with it's natural lighting and realistic looking assets. It's not the best game graphically but the way everything comes toghether is not at all displeasing to the eye:
Hell, even the original Operation Flashpoint, despite the terribad graphics, had a certain elegance in how the picture came toghether:
(interestinly, the original Operation Flashpoint had the "best" faces out of all the Arma games, up to and including Arma 3, which shows graphics are only a part of it)
Now look at Fallout 3:
Like, fucking hell. I'm having a gag reaction just looking at that shit. And New Vegas, even in "ultra HD", still retains a lot of the same problems:

A game eight years older looking ten times better. Can anybody explain to me how that's even possible? Half Life 2 looks like a work of art by comparison:
