The main intent of the new keyword in C# in this context is to let programmers and reviews know that this method is not an override and 'shadows' the base class method. This is specially targeted towards C++ programmers who migrated to C#. Remember, C++ does not have the override keyword.

Thew new keyword also enables you to 'shadow' or 'redefine' a virtual method in a derived class. IMO, this was not possible in C++. Correct me if I'm wrong.
