Awesome cg trailer. No gameplay but it's still pretty damn sweet

side by side graphics comparison

360 can't hold a candle to the best PC settings, but it still looks good... except for when they show the training yard and there are significantly less troops around.

The Dark Edition's sold out. The main difference between that and regular is an art book though, and I have one already.

Gonna preorder today.

Whenever the guys at CD Project RED have a dilemma, they probably ask themselves "what would EA do?"...then they do the exact opposite.

Playing at a lower resolution might help with vram, but I'm not sure.

Glad to hear about editions selling out.  Curious to see what all ends up being added and how they add it to the story.

Well I've looked at a couple of reviews and aside for some minor techinical issues due to the graphical limitations of the 360, it's all good.  Can't wait for Tuesday:D I've been wanting this game for quite some time.

If it's less buggy than Mass Effect 3..... I'll be in heaven.

This comes out Tuesday!? I'm still playing Mass Effect 3! Then I've got Xenoblade after that! Sadly, I don't think I'll get around to playing this game until the Fall. On the bright side, it might have already priced dropped by then.

Witcher 2 is a game I really recommend you "skip the line" for. Like you I'm still playing Xenoblade and while it's fun it doesn't even come close to the Witcher 2 in my opinion.
It was the game of the year here at RPGFan and my personal favorite RPG of last year too. I'd say finish ME3 and then go for the witcher 2 and you'll be glad you did.

Though I haven't played The Witcher (gonna play 360 version), Xenoblade was a definite Game of the Year for me last year, so even if The Witcher turns out to better, I find it difficult to believe it will be SO much better as to stop playing Xenoblade for. Then again, I did take a hiatus from Xenoblade to play Zelda SS, which was definitely not GOTY material, going back to Xenoblade afterwards was one of the greatest returns I've ever had.

Can't wait to play The Witcher though.

Yeah, I don't think there is any bad choice here. Play one great game, or play another great game. Personally, I'm more anxious for Xenoblade than this so it comes first.

I like Xenoblade, but given the choice I'd much prefer to go for Witcher 2.

Just make sure the kiddies don't see it. It is VIOLENT.

I haven't even bought Xenoblade yet, but with limited funds it'd be a choice between it and this... and I'm going with this. I've been waiting since the PC version came out.
