Hey guys,

Just wanted to point you guys out to this link taken from PS3 Fanboy : http://www.ps3fanboy.com/photos/the-witcher-rise-of-the-white-wolf/1198839/

Not sure if they are touched up or not, but whatever it may be, I'm looking forward already to the console version releases of the great PC exclusive (as of now), The Witcher, being released on both 360 and PS3 platforms.

Going by CD Projekt's rapid fanbase growth and general critical acclaim following the Witcher's release in 2007, they are turning out to become one of my favourite, if not, my favourite new videogame developer studio this generation.

Here are some screenshots :






---------------------------------

I have already enjoyed The Witcher on PC, and the Enhanced Edition patch has definitely added some significant changes to allow replays (heck, even the original 1.0 release has replay value). I'm looking forward to purchasing it again on the PS3, as I think this game will do rather well on a console platform, considering the action-based gameplay approach.

Whether you've enjoyed it on PC, or have yet to fully experience it on a 360 or PS3, you'd do well to keep an eye out for this title : definitely one of my most highly anticipated games of 2009.

Your thoughts?

I didn't know this game was coming to the consoles?

I hope this game and the devs won't get any hate from the hermits now.

EDIT: Looks really good for the consoles and I will easily support this great new dev again IF this version isn't broken or anything.

i dont think this game is fastpaced enough for consoles. I mean i;ve been playing the PCgame for like 6hours and it was boring as hell, am sure the game will get better but 6 first hours and nothing but boringness will fail on consoles (if there was nothing else to play i would have give the witcher another go but am too busy with Fallout3 and other games).

What strikes me as odd are the visuals represented in these screenshots. I can't confirm if these are truly in-game or simply just art pieces to set the mood and theme of the game for the consoles (which shouldn't differ much from the PC version, aside from consolized gameplay and revamped inventory system, and a few modications to general flow of the game), but they look too good to be true. Way too good in fact...

I'm thinking if they update the combat in a way that does not suck balls I might enjoy this version more. Also if it's not a crappy dumbed down port.

I'm getting that too. Not sure if I like this smeariness. PC version didn't look like this did it? Can't remember.

I always wanted to get this on PC :D. I'm so glad its coming to consoles, and its just not a shoddy port. But I'm not yet sure what system to get it on.

This will be a difficult game to port. Hopefully CD Projekt puts everything they've got into it.

Yeah :?...I noticed that too. Kinda looks like Fable in a way. Different that the grittier PC version. I'm not sure if I'm sold on the visuals yet, I have to see more.

I never like it when console screenshots completely lack jaggies, usually they are bullshots when that happens.

That and they look paint like.

Some of them look like concept art, the 1st one and the two last ones especially, but I remember thinking that about the PC version too so I'm not gonna say anything this time. The PC version looked sharper and a bit more gritty imo, this one looks blurred up and more cartoony. But considering it's apparently a whole another engine they're surprisingly similar.

If this game has additional content and even a little bit more about the whole storyline(The Witcher's storyline concludes the Salamander arc but doesnt say why did Geralt come back, im guessing thats The Witcher2 though)i will buy it , no doubt enjoyed the Pc version and will enjoy this one(if it has the before mentioned extra content).

Looks about on par with the PC Version. A bit blurrier, but whatever. As long as you guys still get the fantastic roleplaying elements, its all good for you.

:question: Are we looking at the same screens? Those screens look like the PC version...just miles better in every way. MUCH higher res textures, character models,lighting,vegetation...the only picture with too much bloom is the first. The rest look great.

The vegetation in the first pic seems to be improved and there seems to be much more varied TOD settings. Other than that, it looks almost the same as the PC version, unless I'm missing something.

The saturation of the colours is different. I don't think this will be what we will end up with.

The game is awsome, I played it 3 days straight in a row. However the controls for it are very PC oriented, the game uses a lot of buttons, especially the combat, and if the console versions will require pausing, I am afraid it won't be very popular. However it is good news, CD project deserves it.

The combat doesnt take many buttons =S, they already said the controls would be more action oriented , but if they had to transport exactly how it is on PC it would be easy-- Square to attack , triangle to use signs, horizontal D-pad to change signs , vertical D-pad to change styles, X to interact , and start to open the menu, triggers could be the shortcut buttons.

Yeah, looks about the same, no horribly obvious difference, and as a PC gamer, I think its good their releasing this to a larger audiance, it really was a great game, with one of the better multiple path systems, especially since its not good vs evil, there is some actual morals behind it all.

Finally! A decent WRPG for my console!

Bethesda's monopoly is now broken.

And soon enough, Bioware will make something for PS3 as well. Let the good times roll.

And again - I will win, because I will be playing original Polish version with Polish voices plus subtitles ;) Oh, and one funny thing, the fellow who did voice of Azar Javed in Polish PC version, did also the voice of the main hero from localised versions of Gothic 1 and 2. It was surprising to hear him, but damn, I love his voice.

But I really don't want The Witcher to be more cartoonised, really. What I enjoyed about The Witcher is that the world was very immersive, and very, very sinister. The game was so immersive and addictive that it was hard to stop playing it. I also loved the fact of reacting on weather, like NPCs would go or run to find shelter, and it was done in pretty good way.
