Yahtzee didn't like The Witcher, but he also dislikes just about every game I've ever liked, so I'll give this a try if it gets good reviews (I doubt it'll get a demo, it's a WRPG)

This IS the console version, right?

Yes, it is the console version. And I can recommend The Witcher greatly (played the PC version), and say that I will most definetly get my hands on RotWW for my PS3!

8.5 from IGN for the original, very good score.

6.5 Presentation
If it wasn't for the inventory, big bugs and load time issues, the presentation would have been great.
8.5 Graphics
These are some very, very beautiful environments. Combat animations are terrific and the monster designs are good. Secondary character models aren't spectuacular and neither are the random animations.
8.5 Sound
The music is excellent, voice work is decent to good, and sound effects are great.
9.0 Gameplay
The combat and choices available make this a terrific RPG that's fun to play the entire way through.
9.0 Lasting Appeal
With 40 hours of play the first time through and three different story paths, this could be worth a second or third play through as long as you can handle the load times.
8.5
Great
OVERALL
(out of 10 / not an average)

Wow, the Presentation really let it down. Hopefully, they fix that stuff in Rise of The White Wolf.

I really liked Oblivion, is this game similar?

I can't talk about Oblivion, never played it, but I played The Witcher in version 1.1, where there were still big bugs and long load times, and despite these issues (that have been worked out in the Enhanced Edition), I still loved the game.

And I didn't really think there was anything wrong with the inventory, although the overhaul promised in RotWW is certainly welcome!



Everyone get hyped for this game !!



I updated the original post with new stuff. Please check it out!



@Rainbird,

Most all the shitty bugs were cleaned with the enhanced edition !!!



Time to Work !

Well, most reviewers seemed to give the Enhanced Edition roughly the same score or a little higher than The Witcher, but it's still a very good score.

If this is anything like Oblivion, I'm getting it.

I am a huge fan of the Witcher (i've read 5 book saga and 2 books with short stories), and Sapkowski is my favourite writer.

The Game was a big thing for me and i can say that it is absolutely amazing, story is entertaining, there is no basic distinctions beetween good and evil, Geralt is thrown into a world of politics, racial hate where there are no simple answers. The game on the PC was better in my opinion then Oblivion and as good as Fallout 3 (maybe a bit better because i really dislike Fallouts FPS's approach)

Great that console owners will be able to finally play it, its probably the best thing made in Poland in last few years.



I really hated The Witcher and I doubt it's going to change anything with a PS360 release.....

Sad.

I am very interested in this, and I will definitely buy it when it comes to PS3. I've heard nothing but good things about the original on PC (bugs aside).
