But when it comes to the cutscenes I think they were just not given the time or money, mainly because nobody took their work all that seriously. Apparently they really did want to do cutscenes though, there's even a full write up of what the cutscenes would have been in Lost Arifact that you can download and check out.

It's sad that we didn't got other Expansion, but it's thanks to the Gold team that we have access to the Level Editor. I bet the mainline team wouldn't like for us to put our hands on it.

Holy Cow! I read this beautiful review when I want to re-affirm my purpose in life!!! Thank you so much for the kind words. My team and I put a lot of heart and soul into the Golds, and this makes it worth it!

My favorite moment? Going through the steps to discover the Hidden Glen and the rampant Scotsmen!!!

Thank you for all those amazing games ! Please tell us what you think of Aspyr's work on the remasters when it comes out ! I am so curious about what the original team will think seeing their work remastered

I also want to thank and congratulate you, Phil

The masterpiece was a hidden secret for so long and now it's about to be unearthed

Ahhhh! I somehow missed this comment in my time away from the forums recently. Hearing this means the world to me. I'm still playing the expansions as a part of the Remastered trilogy and I get joy every time I do.

Thank you for the impact these games have had on me.

This is almost certain. In the Tomb of Ash livestream he clearly said that he has already created some levels for The Fountain of Youth, and other assets as well. I am sure that in TR4-6R we will see an expansion, hopefully of TR5.

I arrived at this post after a bit of googling while playing remastered. Still logging into here with a username from a past life

I totally agree that the quality of these levels is top notch. For me in the TR3 era the designers were on the top of their game.
I don't care much for story or for ultra modern graphics but I a very fond of the puzzling and level design in T3 (for which the tank controls are essential as I see it). Also I like the atmosphere in particularly the UK levels like thames warf and highland fling. If I try to compare the joy I once had playing tr3 levels to visiting world renowned attractions swarming with tourists in my holidays I am afraid most of the latter lose out.
