Yeah but remaking an even older game means all new models, all new textures, reworking audio etc. Thats basically a whole new game at that point its tons of work.
Remake a 10 year old game? You can upscale some textures, rework a few models, rework the lighting and add some tweaks and it refreshes it to the point where its more palletable to current gen gamers without needing insane dev time.
I honestly don't mind it myself, I like that the games get a little extended shelf life. If the price is low enough then I'm down for it.
