On updating a classic (Off-Topic)

I would say it is less that it wouldn’t be a hit and more that if we lived in an alternate reality where a different game did “Halo” back in 2k1 that if an updated Combat Evolved were released today it would probably suffer a great deal of criticism (it even did on release) for the same sorts of things folks criticize about modern releases. Things that we look back on fondly as fans (some folks really like the repeating play spaces; the AI is predictable but feels reactive) wouldn’t go over as well with a modern audience.
