The idea is to make a decent-looking model without overcomplicating it. A good way to do this is to only construct the broad shapes in 3D, and then cheat the detail by wrapping the geometry with 2D colour maps. It's a real workout for the artistic muscles, because it requires both modelling and Photoshop illustration skills to pull it off.

Check out Capcom's Resident Evil 4 on the GameCube for a beautiful example of how to do it right. Near-movie quality visuals, all running in real time on eighty quid's worth of hardware.
