The game hasn't changed. How hard is it to up the resolution of a game? That's the equivlent of running Tomb Raider on a 8800GT and then upgrading your GPU to a GTX780TI and calling Tomb Raider "remastered" because you can run it on a higher resolution at a faster frame rate. That's not a remastered game. It's a port.

You also cannot apply the definition of remastering a movie to remastering a video game. Even with movies, movies would need to be several years old to be considered "remasters". Otherwise, they're called re-releases. Even so, video games and movies are different.

A remastered game is when the assets in the game have been retooled to support a modern technology or audience. Also, games would need to be several years old to be considered "remastered". 

1) Super Mario All Stars would be considered a remastered game. They used all new assets for that game.

2) Metal Gear Solid Trilogy HD _IS_ a remaster. They used all new assets for that game.

3) Zone of Enders HD is NOT a remaster. It is an HD port

4) Soul Caliber II HD is NOT a remaster. It's an HD port.

4) Wind Waker HD _IS_ a remaster. They used all new assets for this game.

You get it?

The definition of a Remaster has been established. Just because one chooses to ignore it doesn't make it false.

The Last Of Us is being Remastered.

Apparently it hasn't.  Just because _you_ choose to ignore it, doesn't make it true.

The Last of Us is a simple cross generation port.
