NnT is a remake in the way that the term is used in the film industry. Anyone who uses 'remake' for a graphical remastering is wrong. Thankfully, I can't think of many cases where that term has been used; mostly I've seen that sort of thing described as 'HD Update'.

Having said that, in my last post I was mostly responding to the vehemence of Lorne's claim. He wasn't clarifying a distinction or objecting to a mis-used term; he said the game was not a fucking remake, when it is. It fucking is.
