1. It will actually work on modern PCs.
2. It will have a decent resolution for modern screens.
3. Dunno, hopefully will be faithful to the original with a better AI?

You can run NS in widescreen by simply editing the cfg file, everything will be small, but obviously still better than the level of 3d graphics that projects like these usually boast.

So I was listening to the video... and then I heard "... and will be rendered in Unity.".
Ugh.

This is - in many cases - a very sure sign of "I don't know how to make games, but I can use the Unity editor".
Let's see then....
Nathan J. Hunt who has been doing small mod projects in the game modding community for a number of years. Along with managing Storm Isle Productions, he entered the "Make Something Unreal" contest with an RTS mod for UT2k4 Uskaarj - which converted the UT FPS game into a full RTS inside UT and UT2k4. This mod received an honorable mention in the contest and was published in a number of gaming magazines.
Well, at least he does know his way around different toolsets.
