Me too, I think the first one sold a lot more after release from word of mouth, hopefully this will get big sales on release, shower them with money for more RPGs
(unless EA buy'em out 
)

theyev advertised witcher 2 a lot better than the first! friend of mine even told me on some pirate websites in the comments box some people were urging other pirates to buy the game and not downlaod it illegaly!
i really hope they do well becuase this company with such a low budget has come out and blasted EA out of the water!!!

The problem with the original was that the load times were epic and it was bugged to hell. Once they fixed these problems it sold much better - hopefully they have learned from these mistakes this time around.

That is pretty sweet.

thats a solid number for a pc exclusive rpg with no multiplayer. i hope they make enough profit so that they dont need to port the witcher 2 or future games to consoles.

hear hear! PC fans are dreading for it to go to consoles and console fans are begging for it to come!

This is one game I am happy to pay £30 for. I really respect the developers and the way they go about thier business.

even though i want them to make as much money as possible becuase they deserve it, i still hope they keep it PC only. dunno why tbh.
I just had a nice surprise for a Friday afternoon.. Checked my emails and had a dispatch notification for The Witcher!
Completely forgot I'd preordered it as I did it about a year ago and didn't even know if was out any time soon!
