I'm really hopping that this come out on consoles, I need this in my PS3.

[N4GAddict]

Me too

[Pandamobile]

Have fun waiting til 2012 at the earliest.

[DEADEND]

Come on man we should be able to play it too.

[Pandamobile]

Then don't wait for the dumbed down console version and buy the PC version when it comes out in May.

Problem solved.

[Baka-akaB]

Seriously you wait and hope , or get the game where it's actually sure to be released .

i remember guys bragging about getting the first one on console . Not only would it have been way later , and they looked stupid anyway with a cancelled version .

[Kon]

Why do you want to play a downgraded version?

[DEADEND]

The reason why I want it on consoles is because I don't have the money for nice PC. If I had the money I would by one in a heart beat just for this game and Crysis 2 but I just can't.

[Ultra Gamer]

save up money. I just built my first Pc about a month ago for about $550. not exactly cheap but not as much as buying one pre assembled.

[stuntman_mike]

I'm with ultra gamer I built my first ever pc a few months back as well, it wasn't that cheap but it was the best thing I've ever done. and it will last for the next few years but is also upgradable if needs be. I say to anyone thinking of buying a pre-made pc just build your own you can get all the parts you want to your spec and get a beast of a PC. Its a bit daunting but worth it.

[DEADEND]

What part about I don't have money for a rig don't you guys get lol. I'm spending almost $2500 this year on games alone, $4000 on a 3D setup up grade for my living room and I have to find money for a honeymoon for my wife and I. So you guy are saying I need to buy a gaming rig when I can simply just get it for my PS3 which as gamer I deserve to play on. Everyone should get a chance to play it just like Crysis 2, Portal 2 and Bioshock Infinite.

[Baka-akaB]

Seriously stop now , this is getting ridiculous .

It's not a democracy and you dont "deserve" anything here .
Cd projekt is a small dev , wich just happened , on it's own , after much sweat , love and pain to make an excellent game from an outdated and somewhat buggy Aurora Engine .

it ended up being a big success sure , but in great part because of the work and commitment they've shown to their pc fanbase by upgrading and enhancing tireless a game already great on its own .

Of course they are going to focus on making the best sequel they can on PC ... and of course console will be an after thought there , if a thought at all .
They even tried letting another studio porting the first game on consoles , wich ended badly .

Finally from what you are saying about your expenses , you've got more than enough to build a cheap pc and reap the immediate benefits from it , but choose not to , as you've got other priorities , that's all .

[DEADEND]

@ bak a-akab

You need to calm down man I just want to play the damn game on my console that's all. Plus even if it did come out on consoles your not losing anything you still get it on PC.

[Baka-akaB]

I'm not angry at you lol .

I just dont follow and agree with your logic at all . And find ludicrous to feel entitled some right to the game regardless of the platform . If you dont want a pc and the game , it's just your loss .

If it was coming on consoles i'd maybe get it too , but it's not even announced ... wich delays it at least 1-2 years later (at best) .

[N4GAddict]

Looks better than the first

[Vesemir]

I love this game. My PC will definitively get a new video card in May just for this one.
I can't wait to get my hands on this masterpiece.

[Kon]

This and Dragon age 2. Must buy

[Vesemir]

I couldn't care less for Dragon Age 2.

Xfanboy: Why buy it from Steam ??

Get The Witcher 2 from Gog.com, the only version DRM free. Also Gog.com is the sister company from CDProjekt, the developers from The Witcher, give your support to them, in thanks for this great game !

Also, as soon as you set the pre order from gog.com you gain access to a 100mb file "TW2 pre order bonus pack", entirely for free, with 4 The Witcher 2 official sound tracks, wallpapers, avatars and pics of CD Projekt headquarters !

[Biggest]

Thanks for the heads-up on Gog.

[pr0digyZA]

@ Vesemir

you also get to choose 5 other games (Gothic 2 Gold, Realms of Arkania 1 + 2 (as one bundle), Realms of Arkania 3, Divine Divinity, or Beyond Divinity) to have for free as well.

Only problem I see with GOG is that you don't get this awesome special edition http://buy.thewitcher.com/c...

[Xfanboy]

I just pre-ordered on steam $44 is a steal for me for an unreleased AAA game!!

[Ultra Gamer]

This game or elder scrolls: skyrim for RPG of the year? I'm getting both either way.
I forgot to mention ME3

[PandaJenkins]

This years RPG line up is way too good. DA2, then this, ME3, and Skyrim. Can't freaking wait. This game has me far to eager to play it atm, even if my comp is a bit weak for it :/

[stuntman_mike]

this game is looking awesome, loved the first one. so many Brilliant RPG's coming out this year im never gonna finish anything.

[DigitalRaptor]

I'm primarily not a PC gamer, but I will be picking this up Day 1.

I would appeal to those who are console only gamers to play this too. Don't wait for the console release, because it might never happen.

The Witcher 2 looks too good not to miss.

[Orochi]

Agree @ Vesemir ! Get the game from Gog.com, receive extra content right now and more those extra contents when the game is released:

"You'll receive one of five classic RPGs to choose from: Gothic 2 Gold, Realms of Arkania 1 + 2, Realms of Arkania 3, Divine Divinity, and Beyond Divinity, the manual (unsurprisingly), a 200 pages digital artbook, the full in-game soundtrack, papercraft figures, guide, maps, letters, trailers, developer diaries, gameplay footage, interviews and "making of" exclusive video."
