I think Abe's Oddysee HD is a bad name since it implies it's the same 2D, screen-scrolling game with its bitmap graphics updated to HD resolution, while in fact it's a complete remake, with 3D graphics and scrolling, with slightly different levels and altered gameplay. In fact, an HD version of Abe's Oddysee (as in the same graphics with HD quality) isn't really impressive in today's standards. That name would be quite misleading the disappointing.
Personally I like Abe's Oddysee Redux suggested earlier that thread, it give the right impression and it sounds cool. The pun-ny title names sure are clever, but they don't fit the dark nature of AO. It's box-art material. :P
