Depends on how you consider levels, as areas with levels, or each area a level? I think Legend was about as half or three quarters as long as it should have been.

The bikes in Legend were better than the Mexico bike riding in TRU, in any case. Though I agree the Kazakhstan bike sequence was pretty sucky.

So effort doesn't mean anything in my book as long as it doesn't yield results. Only the final product delivered to the gamers means something.

Plus if it was as 'easy' as that then it's a wonder they still essentially screwed up by crapping all over TR1. Just because I said Anniversary is their best TR game doesn't mean it's an improvement over the original. It still can't hold a candle to TR1. In my opinion they only got one level right, one level in the entire game. That's St.Francis' Folly, but even that level still has some weaknesses compared to the TR1 original. Still, if every level had been remade with the same quality and care that St.Francis' Folly recieved then I'd say Anniversary would have been a successful remake.
I'm sure they "changed" TRA because they thought it would help sales. What if the game was EXACTLY the same as TR1, in very respect except graphics? Maybe less purchases? From CD's point of view, better to sell more copies and put up with the howling from the Core fanboys.
