Not to mention any censorship, about which every other one-star review is - this remake is plain bad. Try to compare UI and grahpics of the original to this one - 3D animated faces of the commandos are cartoonish and grotesque. Originally they had that unique look and feel, that made you feel like you're controlling seasoned combat veterans, and not a gang of a latest Disney show goofs. Same goes for the icons and GUI in the general. You could say that the matter is subjective, but just look at the screenshots in this store listing and the one for the original and compare them. Somehow UI made years ago was more detailes than what the new devs were able to come up with in a modern, HD era of game visuals. To sum it up in one sentence - the title promises HD remake, but what you get is a dumbed down redraw of the original. As others before me said, do yourself a favor, buy the original, install the HD mod and experience the full potential of this otherwise marvellous game.
