Witcher 2 for $45, yes thanks!

Now it's going to taunt me for 6 months, just sitting there in Steam.

Also if you're interested in the Wticher 2, go have a look at GoG.com (the makers of The Wticher own Good Old Games as well). They are offering it for $45 plus a rebate to spend on gog games if the price changes, plus a free game (from a list) from GoG. Best of all its DRM free.

I would love the all out CE retail version but I have no idea how we could order it here in Australia. I'm pretty sure Video Games are one of the few things you can't get shipped from Amazon to Australia icon_sad.gif

You also face the possibility of it being RC'd here in Aus. The Classification Board frown upon sexuality in games (but it's fine to blow someone's head off). I figure if I buy it now hopefully it wont get taken away from me if it get's banned. I've still got Risen off steam.......

What happened with Risen? I imported a copy from PlayAsia for about $15 last week and wasn't aware it had any classification problems.

It was RC'd here in Australia (some crap about drug use I think), I think only since the last Steam sale (last week I think) it has been available for Aussies to buy over Steam. So hopefully it doesn't get removed again, because I'm not sure what will happen to those who have already purchased it.

Not likely though the first witcher game got through uncensored despite the US having a censored version at the time.

So we got both the boob cards + the sex part intact.

I thought they gave the rating to the normal one (the US one), but the boob cards were in the "enhanced edition" which came out as a patch afterwards?
