    So if you’ve seen Fincher’s Dune then paying for Villeneuve’s Dune is not acceptable? After all they’re technically the same movie because they’re based on the same source material.

    I get not liking a remake because it’s one to one to the original(edit: I’d even go as far as to say at that point it’s likely a remaster not a remake) , but I don’t get not liking a remake just because it’s a remake. System Shock remake is true to System Shock but it still feels different enough to be a separate game.

      I’m not saying that these, or remakes generally, are bad(I’ve even been thinking of picking up the DS remake). I just don’t think they should be contenders for GOTY.

        So hypothetically speaking, if there was a remake of some game and that remake turns out to be the best game ever made, then it shouldn’t be considered a GOTY contender simply because it’s a remake?

        What remake? To my knowledge Quake 1 and 2 got enhanced editions, which basically a remaster that also had some additional content.
