Default Is the WII version longer?

I've been playing the game on wii again and it really is taking longer than normal to complete it than the pc version. Does anyone have actual completion times for these.

A friend of mine whom I just asked has the game on the Wii and Playstation 3 and she thinks the Wii version is longer because the level maps are slightly different. She can't confirm that though.

Thank you for the reply! It really does seem longer and like a much different game.

I did want to give the Wii version a go, especially considering the graphics are half-way decent.

Well i got mine half price and that was def worth it! Go for it! I think it might be better than the PC/Xbox/PS3 version!

I've played both the Wii and Xbox 360 version, and I don't think the Wii one is longer.

Having owned and played both of them, I don't think so. The main version seems to be the longest, to me at least

I thought the Wii version was slightly shorter because it was missing one of the levels? I haven't played it and don't know anyone else who has, but I can't see how it could be longer. It's still really the same game isn't it?

I think I understand how on a wii though it could be a bit more difficult xD

It has the same story, cutscenes, and general locations. However the levels were essentially made from scratch based off of the game's concept arts (as opposed to being a port of the 360/PC/PS3 version's actual level layouts). As a result the levels have some extra areas not in the other versions of the game (like some extra biking across the ice), but also have a few areas that are missing (like the Thailand area where you get the mirrors) or simply completely different (like the room in Mexico where you get the hammer). There are also far fewer enemies in the Wii version so a lot less combat.
