Action RPG of the year
The Witcher 2 was originally released last year for PC and was regarded as the best action RPG to come out in a long time. With unrivalled graphics and an adult low fantasy plot based on the Polish novel by Andrzej Sapkowski. The Witcher tells the tale of Geralt of Rivia and his investigation into the murder of kings by a man only known as the Kingslayer. The game boasts over 50 hours of gameplay. Combining the sword skills of Assassins Creed with the truely engrossing storytelling of Mass effect, The Witcher 2 can take some getting used to. Luckily the developers have extended the game to include over 4 hours of extra gameplay which includes an excellent tutorial opening level not seen in the original release. Plus some additional levels to flesh out Act 3 in the game, One of the only gripes PC Players had was that act 3 was too short. I cannot recommend this game highly enough. On Xbox the game runs really well and you will be hard pressed to find many games that look and control as good as this.
