I said the same thing about the original. The remake definitely wasn't needed to improve the game because it's still good looking and plays just like a modern game. But I did enjoy the remake regardless, moreso as an excuse to replay the original than as a new or improved experience.

Also gotta remember there is a whole generation of teenagers and adults now that were too young to play or appreciate these games when they first came out and most people aren't interested in retro games. A remake may be the only way they'd ever experience it.
