I've owned both and completely get where you are coming from, however opening up a NIB of any of the three CGC remakes brings back such great memories and the forgotten joy of seeing those titles come out of box again! Yeah, they play different but damn they are beautiful and the upgrades were very welcomed in my house by everyone. If I had a HUO of the originals it would probably be a different argument for me but since I didnt it wasn't horrible getting a fresh new upgraded version of some of my favorite games. Would rather deal with the differences than the painful process of finding a really nice original or having to restore a beater. My two cents deposited and this is just my opinion, I get and respect what everyone else has expressed. That being said I really hope the next one is CC and not the LAST remake as some think is the case
