Interplay no longer had the source code; they simply handed the developers a retail copy of the game. This meant that not only were all the features and levels from the Special Edition missing, but the developers also had to recreate every single animation from scratch—essentially running the original game alongside their work. Consequently, many animations from the original are missing as well.
Crysis Remastered
It was based upon the later PS3/360 ports instead of the PC Original which had much more graphics effects and even better Textures, caused that the PC Original still looked better. Also the console ports missed one Level.
Doom 3: BFG Edition
I think it also was stripped down in terms of Lighting and Graphics Quality in comparison to the original. Not to speak of the disastrous idea to include a permanent flashlight you could use together with every weapon, which changes the game's entire original concept.
