Kotaku - This week, I had a chance to sit down and play through a few hours of the upcoming Xbox 360 version of the 2011 PC-exclusive game The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings. The Xbox 360 version will launch on April 17th.
I'm happy to report that the port meets expectations in every way—close your eyes and picture "The Witcher 2 on Xbox 360." Are you imagining that? Good, because that's what you're getting. As far as I'm concerned, that is a good thing.
Daily Video Game writes: "Xbox Store has just launched two new digital game sales that heavily discount various Shocktober games, games from popular publishers, as well as Xbox 360 games that are backward compatible with Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One right now!"
The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings - Enhanced Edition debuted on Xbox 360 10 years ago, laying the foundations of CDPR's console releases.
Daily Video Game writes: "Xbox Store has just kicked off its Black Friday game sale ahead of PSN, featuring tons of recently released, AAA, and indie games with huge savings for Xbox gamers right now!"
Xbox Store has just kicked off its Black Friday game sale -ahead of PSN- - Did they get kickbacks for saying this?

PlayStation's Black Friday sale starts tomorrow with hundreds more games.
It's kind of a joke to act like xbox is EVER beating Sony to a sale. Sony always has 3-4 sales going on with thousands of games. PSN having 1000+ games is just another Tuesday on PlayStation.
Thanks but my rental service is all I need on Xbox. Like the other article states if I want to buy a game to keep it is physical on PS.
There's no need for them to say ahead of PSN they have done so due to paid shilz nothing more
This game is so awesome. I don't see why they aren't releasing it on PS3 as well. Everyone should get to play this awesome game.
@coolbeans, I understand, but at this point I feel as though they would have announced a PS3 version if they were going to do it.
@OcularVision, I'm not so sure about that. PS3 has a pretty RPG-friendly audience. It's certainly big enough where it's worth releasing the game on the console.
In any case, I stand by my original point in saying that it's a bit of a shame that the PS3 audience (as of now,) will miss out on this title.
It's amazing to see such a smaller game developer-compared to the rest of the field-essentially teaching many others how to make RPGs and quality ports. CD Project Red has to be in the top 5 for this-gen success stories.
has the "counter" skill been "fixed"?
Felt pretty weird with the PC version.
Games made for PC then ported to console -> still good games.
Games made for console then ported to PC -> piece of shit.
True story.
i think the xbox 360 port kinda helped cdprojekt optimize the game for PC. the recent add-on with tutorial and arena mode looks more polished and has better lighting and color than the story mode
