Games should be reviewed based on their story, graphics, gameplay, etc.  Not based on the differences between other versions of the game.  Reviews have always been used to access the quality of a game.

Then what's the point of reviewing remasters? Just use the original review then and add a note with what changed in the remasters.

Ok, the graphics of Shovel Knight, Fez and Bastion suck compared to other PS4 (or PS3 even) games.

Games get reviewed on originality as well, remasters are the opposite of that. Something that was fresh and unique ten years ago likely won't be now anymore.

Unless remasters fix fundamental issues with the game they should ALWAYS get lower scores.

Gaming standards don't stay the same, the goal post constantly shifts.  I could keep going but its obvious this isn't going anywhere so I'll agree to disagree.

Which is why they should receive lower scores. As technology improves, so should our standards.
