MODERATORS
Why does this game need a remake? It came out pretty recently. They could probably just release a graphics and content patch for the base game. Or a sequel. Why rerelease a game like this?
To me it's kinda the perfect game to remake (hopefully it IS remade and not just rereleased) because it had a lot of potential that it just did not live up to. A graphics and content pack would not improve the game much at all, because the let down was the gameplay and mechanics. If they can re-tool that, they may have a solid game here.
Shouldn't they just make a sequel in that case?
They probably are, but they decided to make it over in a new engine. Since they have to port the gameplay mechanics over anyways, why not release a remastered version of the original to help fund development of the next one.
