Because it is still the same game. Then they expect us to pay for it again? That is so frustrating

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 about quake? That got remade and we didn't have to pay for that

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