how many hours did it take to complete?

I would estimate 20-30 hours. It was a bit shorter than the first one. I did a lot of the side shit as it was very cool and interesting. You could blow through it in probably 12-15 if you want to. Game was hard at first then got easier. I leveled up The Witcher so he was a bad ass swordsman. This is the easiest path to take. You can go the magic route or the alchemy route. By the end I was given the ability to perform finishing move s based on a fury bar. Build it up and you can kick some ass.

one thing to note is that they are many 3 ways to play the game and many decision trees available.

The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings for Xbox 360 is coming this April, Warner Bros. announced.

The game hits store shelves on April 17, 2012 in North America. The port of last year's PC version includes 3+ hours of new content, and new gameplay and story elements.

I know what you mean.......if I wasn't still adjusting to keyboard/mouse I would have left BF3 on 360 in the dust.

Witcher 2 thankfully was better with the xbox controller.....i would have struggled big time if was K&M only.

I have wanted to play this game since it was released, but my 5 year old computer can't run it. Please please PLEASE don't be a buggy mess (I'm looking at you, Risen -- even though I still loved you).

i still havnt gotton past the intro of the game. as soon as my star wars subscription runs out i will be all over this game

Really? Not even HALF as good? C'mon.

Now I know that screenshots don't completely tell the tale, but I wasn't blown away by the ones you posted. They look great, sure, but the characters still don't look lifelike. And what the fuck is that hole in that bitches head in the pic where she's riding the main character? Worst hair part ever?

Also, LOL at "Enhanced Edition". That's the best they could come up with?

I'm definitely interested in this game although I won't get it day one. I'll definitely pick it up though. It seems to be a game I would love. I wonder if they are going to tweak the combat? One of the biggest complaints I've heard is that the combat is overly difficult, especially in the early stages, which could really turn someone like me off that doesn't have a lot of patience.

you have to see it on a pc to know the difference. It has really ruined me for xbox gaming

take arkham city for example. on the pc the game makes the xbox version look like xbox 1

 

[jms493]

The game wasn't hard at all.....people are bitches these days

 

[Twigg4075]

$10 it gets cancelled.....

$10 please.

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

LOL.

his comments are spot on from what i been reading. early on the game is tough, but as u go it gets easier. its the difference between posting a comment 3 hours in vs 30 hours in. impressions change over that time

its sad that you would try and call him out for that :smh:

It's "Enhanced" because they added new things to the game (as they did with the first Witcher). Would you prefer "Upgraded Edition?"

 

[jms493]

Twigg is just busting my balls. The first battle scene is tough because u don't know what the fuck your doing and about 2 other parts were hard....the rest was just paying attention and learning the fighting techniques....instead of bashing x on most other games.

But seriously it was an awesome game to play through. I would give it a 9/10 as an action oriented RPG.

And there is some precedence with the name because when they updated/upgraded the original with some better translated dialogue, etc...they called that the Enhanced Edition too.

A fun fact that you would never see in console gaming? When they released the Enhanced Edition, which in many ways was a different game than the original, you could get it for free if you already had the original.

I know it is actually enhanced, I just think they could've been a little more creative with the subtitle.
