hmmm, is that alot for digital sales? honestly I was expecting much bigger numbers, maybe around 400 - 500k.

I have no idea.. if you would ask shio he would say there low numbers cause he always says steam sells millions (legendary Shio's CoD4 sold 10 million thread)
but seeing that last time they talked about the Witcher 2 sales late august..

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2011-08-30-witcher-2-sales-are-nearly-1-million

The number recorded by developer CD Projekt was 940,000 sales for the first half of 2011.
Of those sales, 200,000 were digitally distributed copies of The Witcher 2.

so thats like 21% digital vs 79% against retail... I actually would have thought that the sales would be reversed in PC land... like 60~ 70% digital

The Witcher 2 is a bit of an anomaly, in terms of the retail digital split. The fact that the retail copies all have a bunch of extras probably has a lot to do with it even the standard price SKU comes with a map, collectable coin, paper craft et,c and the fact the game is ~15GB to download is probably also a factor.
