Does it even count as a remaster?
It is using the same assets and the same resolution etc right?

They just forced multiplayer into it so they could get more people connected to Xbox live.

The original game had multiplayer already. And I guess it counts as a remaster since its being upped to 720p as far as I know, and I think the sound was also updated. I mean it's just a basic, poor job of a remaster, but a remaster still.

They did it with no source code. Poor job and basic is not a fair adjective for the effort they put in to make this happen.
