I think you don't quite understand what remaking and remastering actually mean. When you remaster something, you take the original work and use different technical techniques and changes to update said work for the modern standards. It's what they do with old movies when they bring them into BluRay. The work can be more or less prominent, but it is remastering nevertheless. You can just bump up the resolution to 1080/4K, or you can go full George Lucas and add and cut whathever you want. Remaking something is, by definition, reworking from scratch a movie, a song, a videogame... |
Spyro and Crash are remakes, the marketing team wrote it for"remaster" for people (like, in this case, you) who can't tell the difference between a remake and a remaster and think "oh that's a remaster, then it must be the same game with new graphics" despite the fact that the games were made from the scratch and 0 code frome the original PS1 versions were used.
And the cinema is indeed a good example. To remaster a film to make a blu-ray version, you take the existant film and polish it with higher resolution, clean up tje brightness/contrast/colors and that's it. That's what a remaster is.
For a remake, you have to do it from scratch. New textures, new engine, new menus, new systems.
But yeah, kudos for you to try to reopen the case but it's still closed.
