I don't think the engine is to blame for the character styles. You could make characters look like animes in almost any engine, those things don't correlate. I believe, they just use today's processing powers to make everything look more realistic, which is bound to reduce anime-style characters - this was not yet possible at the time of MGS3, I think they would have done it earlier if they could have.
