I grew up almost in a eastern european country (barely) had limited access to video games, most of which were borrowed or traded, played the original mafia when I was but 9, my english, as you can probably imagine was lacking but I managed to finish it. When the announced the remake, my god, nostalgia took over and I even shed a tear, same happened with KOTOR, not to mention all the great franchises that I just never had a chance to play (Metal Gear, FF, Metroid), so yeah, remakes are brilliant, they cater to both old and new players and as long as they are carefully crafted they deserve to be praised.
