I love you guys too :P The majority of PC games annoy me with over-complexity, that's my opinion, but it doesn't make me a kiddie. Seriously, I wouldn't mind if some of you PC elites would get your heads out of your asses. I can run just about any game on my rig on high settings( very high on Crysis), but there is more to games than mind-numbing boredom( there are obviously exceptions), and a simple system that works is way harder to implement effectively than an endless amount of complexity. This is an old debate, but still an annoying one...

LMFAO.

I still need to complete the first game too! ...and million other games. Funny thing is that I have all these new games and most of my time goes to Heretic and Persona 4 (both games played with emulator). So no need to use the dirty consoles! PC FTW! ;)

Anyway.. I am quite interested to see the second game. I mean the first one was like the best RPG made in the recent years.

AFAIK the console versions of the first Witcher were scrapped. I wouldn't expect anything to change for the sequel. I don't think the combat would translate well to a pad anyhow, as much as I would love to see the game get into more gamers' hands.

cool hopefully we will get the console version, at the same time or soon after.
Polish developer and publisher CD Projekt plans to release The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings for PC in Q1 2011. Console versions are planned but the details are yet to be revealed.

"Yes, it's true. We're trying to make the game for this time," CD Projekt's Alek Pakulski told Eurogamer. "The engine is multiplatform, but any announcements will come in the future."

On whether the console versions will be released after the PC game, Pakulski added: "I can't say right now, but please stay tuned for information coming in the near future." Various engine details are being announced soon, he said.

Witcher 2 is looking great. Amazing how much better it looks than the first game.

2011 is shaping up pretty good, with this and Diablo3 (hopefully :P).

Wahoo!!
CD Projekt has revealed during its spring conference today, that The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings will be heading to consoles as well as PC.


This means that for the first time, PS3 and Xbox 360 owners will be able to play as Geralt on their consoles – which confirms what senior producer Tomasz Gop told GRY-OnLine back in September of last year.

New Interview:

http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2010/06/10/tomasz-...
RPS: So are you being influenced by, say, Mass Effect 2 and Alpha Protocol?

Gop: Sorry… Yes. I was saying that we played Mass Effect and we have been inspired by some of that stuff, making our own dialogue technologies, but we have not taken it literally. I mean they have choices which are red for evil and blue for good, things do not fit The Witcher in this way…
RPS: But stuff like the combat system… is that the same?

Gop: Hmm. I’m not going to say we have precisely the same combat system, but we’re also not ready to give a dedicated presentation, maybe in a few months. We need to explain to people exactly how the presentation works, and right now I have to get people to take my word for it that the combat is not hack ‘n’ slash action. It’s not action gamer way of doing it, but we want to give people the feel of how the Witcher really moves.
We wanted to get rid of the static elements – the sequences of strikes in The Witcher 1 were good, but you would have to carry that out to the very end to get the most out of it, but now we can combine any kinds of strike and they still build up to the same thing. There are no fixed stances and so on. We have done a lot of mo cap to show all this, because we want to show Geralt moving really incredibly fast.
That is the goal for changing the combat – it looks faster, and it more dynamic. It’s smoother, and I think hands-on demonstrations will show that.
RPS: So how big is the game going to be?

Gop: Well there are things we don’t yet know, things we need to test and find out about. But we do know that there will be three main acts, three chapters, and there will be the prologue and the epilogue. As I mentioned the areas you are in will be way bigger, but we are trying to get rid of the quests that are purely about time – the FedEx quests, “fetch me something” and so on. So on the one hand it will take time to see everything and explore everything, especially as areas will be so open for you, but the quests will be more packed. So it will probably take less hours to finish The Witcher 2, but exactly how many gameplay hours is not clear right now.
Kinda disappointed it will be smaller than first game, it easily took 60+ hours to finish it. First game has Prologue - 5 acts - epilogue.

Can't wait. Got my save ready!
