RUMORTOID: The Witcher coming to 360/PS3
SteamyV | 2:56 PM on 02.21.2008 10 comments




Sarcastic Gamer is reporting on some very loose talk regarding the confirmation of an eventual Xbox 360/PSTriple port of The Witcher.

The "proof" from the article:

Yesterday, one of the leading Polish gaming-related websites, Gram.pl, reported that Tomasz Jonarski, a CD Projekt RED employee, accidentally spilled the goods on a social web portal. In his “duty” profile field, he stated “Working on creating the technologies for The Witcher game on the next generation consoles: Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.”

No link to the profile in question is provided, though I could care less since the alleged information has probably been removed already. That, and I assume it would be in Polish, which is useless (to me).

As Sarcastic Gamer mentions, releasing a PC-only game that isn't WoW or something from a similarly A-List franchise isn't the best path to profitability, so a port is almost inevitable.

Personally, I never paid much attention to The Witcher from the outset since I lack a decent gaming PC. A console port would certainly spurn some interest in myself. What does Dtoid think?

I'd probably rather give it a try on my 360 then on my PC... I don't want to spend so much time on my PC :-)

Not a hope in hell. Witcher has about as much chance of a full-featured port as Crysis.

Yah the interface could be a bit better but the game itself is good fun.

I heard this game was decent, at least in terms of how your decisions effect the world and the story. I was interested in it for a while 'til I remembered my PC couldn't run it. I'd surely give it a shot on my 360, though.

Well, I can honestly say that the 360 is lacking a good "play as an albino and get collectible cards for having sex with women" game. That genre is sorely lacking. I mean, we already have, what, three Need for Speeds on the system and yet no PACCHSWRPG yet? For shame.
