PC Game of the Year 2008. Ultimate Game of the Year. These are two awards won by The Witcher from The Golden Joystick Awards. Sounds promising to finally have a Role-Playing Game of that caliber announced for the PlayStation 3, doesn't it? According to designers, the game will feature an entirely new engine, new combat, new dynamic lighting and new aggressive AI from the enemy characters.

We've included a fully detailed video below where one of the game's designers gives a detailed explanation about everything they've made fresh for the console version.

No release date has yet to be given.

     scince when?? all these awards and i never heard of it.......oh well. PC gamers would be quite miffed i would imagine,with all the changes happening to the game. but at least the PC got it first :). regardless it looks awsome as it is (that was the PC version playing right?)

    if they fix the the control system to be better then the pc, it will be a fantastic game.. one thing htat worries me is they mention use of the sixaxis... that thing needs to be ditched

    so everything will be "more dynamic".  That's the adjective behind every description! Nonetheless, looks like an interesting game, though ive never heard of it...

    Great game on the PC. I've already beat it and it's well worth playing, especially for a foreign game.
