Is the Xbox version confirmed to be easier or is it your speculation?

They made the game esier with the last couple patches as well as added the tutorial level. But they also added an extra dificulty level for those that wanted a more hardcore experiance. And if you really want you arse kicked there is a permadeath mode. 

Wow, I love when developers do that. It's one thing we asked they'd do for Skyrim, but they didn't, add permadeath (as part of a hardcore mode).

Boobs (This is important).  About ten minutes in, I had ass, boobs, and naked vagina filling up my TV screen.  I didn't even have to work for it.  It was just there!  I like a game that knows what I want and then just gives it to me.  Beat the heck out of Heavy Rain, that's for sure.

I lol'd.

Sex seems like such a cheap way to get sales if you ask me.

I've been waiting for it for a long time(around 2-3 months) and so far I haven't been disappointed yet. Literally first 15 minutes in, I get boobs and naked hot women thrown at me, after that decently hard and rewarding combat follows suite(If you get too cocky, you will get raped by like, the easiest mob).

So far great game and great graphics, installing definitely seems to make a difference, although my biggest gripe with the Polish developed games are bugs, in this one they are not as blatant and most major ones seem to be ironed out, although the small ones can still ruin the experience of the game.

I heard the game was really well ported though. You'd think they'd have all the bugs ironed out by release since they were porting from PC to 360.

Who do you Triss or Ves?

German voice acting is pretty good :)

Finished it. The story is pretty banging, didn't really do THAT many of the side quests as I rushed chapter 3 due to time constraints, but I think I will do a much better, longer and more attention to detail playthrough afterwards.

Spec'd into Swords skill and the Signs, I think this time will try to go down the Alchemy path and signs, rather than rely completely on swords.

I'm gonna start over from scratch and take my time with it in about an hour.  What would you rate you r experience on a scale of 1-10?

Very good so far, only just started though. Can you view the items before you "search", I find it really annoying when I'm I'm carrying too much junk.

Already rated as 9.3 on VGC, more or less around there. Obviously played better games, but the experience was pretty good nonetheless. I wonder if the ending variates much due to the decisions you picked.
