Having already played it on PC I think I can contain myself till the 17th :wink: But yeah, possibly the finest RPG of the past few years for me, a good healthy mix of everything the genre does best, done very well. Cannot wait to play it again on the big screen with all the new additions.

You know, I am almost tempted to get a 360 enhanced edition copy just to get one that's been signed by the developers. It's a nice touch from a deservedly highly thought-of developer.

Not only are their games quality but their relationship with their fans is second to none. Happy to support them.

I'm waiting for a review as I hadn't heard anything about it apart from the gushings on this very forum, oh and the preview in the latest issue of course. Need the definitive comment to tip me over the edge

I shouldn't think it will be long before the reviews start to emerge with the launch so close. Of course there are reviews for the PC version but obviously they won't cover the enhancements and additional content.

Getting close now. If this somehow lets me down, I'm giving up on console gaming!

Are there any reviews? I'm dithering on whether or not to grab it on launch

And the reviews are in...thus far, being unanimously positive. Check them out:

http://www.metacritic.com/game/xbox-360/the-witcher-2-assassins-of-kings-enhanced-edition

Also, a rather in depth break down from Kotaku:

Hope it really sells well on 360, this is a series that deserves to enjoy a bit more popularity. Cannot wait for Tuesday.

Digital Foundry have done a tech analysis of the conversion here. If that doesn't drum up a bit more enthusiasm for the game, I don't know what will. I can't believe this thread is still on its first page! This is massive for the 360.
