Forums - PC - The Witcher Question

ShadowSoldier on 17 July 2009

Okay I've been wanting to play the Witcher for what seems to be like Years and Now the console version has been cancelled I'm forced to turn to my PC. Now Im going to wipe everything off of my PC which I bought in 05 to play the frickin Witcher. My question is can I use a 360/PS3 controller for the game since If my PC cant support it I might have to turn to my laptop and I hate that things mousepad

of course, the 360 controller is fully compatible with pc. Although if you have a wireless controller you will need the adapter which will run you 20 bucks.

Perhaps before you answear you should at least played the game he is asking for? :)

 

Witcher controls are completly tailored to mouse&keybord controls and i don't remember seeing any option for gamepad there.

 

Only games which have 100% certainity that you can play them with x360 pad are those with Games For Windows logo. Witcher is not one of them.

 

Also don't even think about using trackpad from laptop for it. You need mouse to play and finish it.

I played and finished witcher on my pc. Great game and I had no trouble using keyboard and mouse, the game has a very simple combat system. Get a separate mouse & mousepad for your laptop if you feel the laptop's mouse & mousepad sucks.

I don't think so, not unless you have windows on your mac anyway.

@zlejedi  I work at best buy and I have never seen a copy of the game at retail that didn't have the game for windows logo.  It's been on ever copy here in the states anyway :)
