If one truly hates CoM so much (s)he didn't even finish it, chances are that person won't finish Re: CoM either. Most people who didn't like the game seem to complain about the gameplay, not the graphics, (although I don't understand how anyone could dislike the gameplay in CoM. D=) and the gameplay feels exactly the same it did in the original. Sure there are some new sleights and cards as well as the Card Duel feature for Riku, (which really ruined R/R for me :x) but despite these small extras, playing through Re: CoM felt exactly like playing the GBA version except the game was slowed down by annoying loading times when creating new rooms. Anyone who felt Chain of Memories had tedious gameplay will find Re: CoM just as bad, if not worse.
