Not all games. Take a game like Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway, or even slightly older titles like Call of Duty 3, or Resistance: Fall of Man. They're not shiny, but the textures are of a high enough resolution to show dirt, fabric knit, etc. etc. A lot of games are shiny, yes. The makers of BiA: HH were quoted as saying, "We hate shiny."

Halo is all about sci-fi and fictional technology, and has none of the grit and grime of more realistic and believable shooter games. Shiny is what the game is about.
