Developed by CDProjekt Red, the game revolves around Geralt, our hero. Through complex decision making you forge your hero's own destiny. And although it uses only an enhanced engine of older games it far surpasses any other RPG's gamers expectations. It sure did for me anyway. Top notch graphics, a superb and solid storyline, top notch voiceovers, user friendly interface, blended with probably some of the best sound and music ever heard for a game, and pack jammed with some of the best fighting scenes and moves ever to grace your screen. A must have for the RPG/action/storylovers community for 2007. The game is non-linear meaning you can do just about anything without being stuck because you 're not moving forward with the main storyline. However, all your decisions will have a profound impact on your hero's outcome whether it be glorious or ultimate demise. On metacritic's page, I gave it a 10 on a scale of 10. Frankly, it should be 11. Kudos CDProjekt. Check it out. You'll love me for it.

NOTE: For those who awaits and longs for Assassin's Creed on PC can rejoice and play The Witcher meanwhile because it is very similar to the pace of Assassin's Creed despite the timeline setting and place. I, too, will enjoy AC soon among you all.

That sounds pretty wicked

I found the game worth the purchase, but I'm also a misogynistic geek with no life :P.

Yahtzee's criticisms are valid and the review hilarous:

Definitely a good game... there's another good review here if anyone's interested:

Also note that the problems mentioned, ie slow loading times, have apparently been solved by the newer version of the game
