I love Poser and the DAZ figures, but they are not realistic.

Again that is opinion. All depends on you rendering skills, and if ultra realism is your goal. In terms of physical structure, Genesis 2 and 3 can easily pass as realistic if rendered by somebody who can achieve it. The again, most are aiming for semi realism, and it's good enough for them. To achieve ultra realism, you need to understand mathematically how all materials work in relation to lighting, having all settings tweaked to perfection, and only use shapes aimed for realism. Hell, some movie studios still can't even get realism right. Here is a render of Darius 6 for G2M. Geometry wise, Genesis is very capable of emulating a realistic structure. All small details such as bending and rigging contribute to the end result.
