The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings

[A Tasty Burgerr]

I love European designed RPG's, very mature and adult oriented. They don't go all "PC" like North American games and aren't stupid spiky hair emo faggots like Japanese ones.

I'll probably leech it in the next little bit cause I'm too poor to buy it.

Just out of curiosity, what are some examples of European RPGs?

No More Teasers: The Witcher 2 Confirmed for Xbox 360
Added by Patrick Klepek on June 2, 2011

After floating the idea of a console version of The Witcher 2, CD Projekt has dropped the pretenses and confirmed what we suspected: The Witcher 2 arrives on Xbox 360 later this year.

Yep, later this year!

The news broke out of a pre-E3 event the company's been streaming live this afternoon.

CD Project is calling the Xbox 360 version an "adaptation not a port" but wants to bring the "same experience as delivered to the PC players" for Xbox 360 owners, including all of the improvements the studio is incorporating into the PC version.

The Xbox 360 version will be at E3, too. I'm gonna have to track that one down.

From the little I have played on the PC it is a sweet ass game but very unforgiving. It is a pretty hardcore RPG.

Wasn't the first one confirmed for 360 too and then axed? I can't remember for certain. I definitely remember it being discussed, but I seem to remember it being confirmed as well.

As of right now, no mention of PS3.

4 discs is better than none.

I know I am probably the only person playing this game here but i will update. With my new cpu built I turned up the specs to ultra only turning off a few settings and the game runs at a nice 45-60+ FPS. The graphics are amazing. Just looking at the outfits of the characters are nothing like I have ever seen. Comparing to Dragon Age the graphics blow that game away.

I finally sunk about 2 hours into the game last night and go through the prologue. I am fully engaged now. Playing as The Witcher (Geralt) is very cool....he is a likable character. He gets set up and pinned with a crime and it pissed me off...so now I am emotional engaged in the story now which will keep me playing. A very important element to video games like this.

I will update when I get further.

I think if they're smart, they wait until next Spring to release. Nothing will beat Skyrim.

Those screenshots are just amazing. No wonder there were so many things wrong with this game, but reviewers still gave it high scores. Not saying I agree with reviewing things that way, but I definitely see it.
