I expect a remake like it says in the damn title, not a reboot.

...that's still a damn remake. A reboot would involve entirely changing the plot and characters, as well as launching a series of continued games. Barrett isn't turning into a woman, a la Starbuck.

To be fair, when you're selling a game almost entirely on nostalgia, and the only reason you're making it is because fans of the original game have basically spent the last 20 years saying they wish you'd remake it with better graphics, changing literally every single significant thing about it is probably the most phenomenally stupid thing you can do.

Not really, though. The nostalgia isn't purely mechanical, it's based on the characters and story as well --- and usually more so. And there's little reason to release essentially the same game *when* the same game is already available on the platform.
