*totally as not used a gampad in game yet.. rushes to see*

oh looking at it its because.. they have no other way to get to he extra UI listings

Agreed on these points, especially the save game management.
Also, keyboard controls from 'esc' menu. At least so I can read which keys do what [yes I know I have a manual, just would have been nice].
Larger or more prevalent icons on lootable items would be the most helpful.

I've come across what I believe to be quest bugs, but that's hardly unusual for a grande scale rpg.
I have had a fluke where I couldn't reload a save game after death from the Act 1: Kayran. Screen just froze. Had to ctrl-alt-del to 'end process'. Hasn't happend since and there have been no random CTD to speak of.

On the whole, it's been good fun and very challenging. Very in depth journal descriptions and minimal baby sitting through quests. Mind you, it took me a dog's age to find all the cocoons in the forest. Likely due to sheer amount of undergrowth....couldn't see the forest through the trees!

That drove me batty until I started using my medallion more. :p

Really is a extra for hardcore PC gamers from CD Project - I love these guys - You know, tweakin, modding and all Those wonderfull things of PC gaming .You can enjoy all this even before starting the game, tweaking the ini files .

It reverted if you change the language of the game, for example to register the game or other thing . Or if you change other keys with the configurator. It is the pleasure to enjoy PC gaming,

Cd project !! Thanks for giving us a true gaming PC EXPERIENCE! Even by moving this bonus to console gamers, because they can not reverse the axes.

With these small detaills of ambientation , you can feel immersed in the dark world of the game, as a dwarf or an elf, a left-hander or a special, a mouse inverter or owner of a 4:3 monitor ... a socially exclude person , while the silent majority play the game. . The perfect atmosfere to play The Witcher 2 with the classic reminiscences of the magical universe of Sapkowski

i think it started because When people thought Microsoft they thought PC's.. i dunno

but before the Xbox 360 at-least Developers were smart enough to make the games use different UI's and functions enough that both versions had a different feel and worked best for both systems.

Finished this perhaps half-an-hour ago, and I have to say I've added it to my internal list of favorite cRPGs alongside games such as Arcanum, Fallout, Baldurs Gate and Vampire:tMB. It is a very beautiful game, with an intricate and morally grey plot that actually made me agonize over essentially all major plot decisions.

I'll be starting my second playthrough, this time on Hard, later today to see the second storyline.

I'm also very glad to see the changes made between this game and the original, and some of the more stylistically questionable elements removed (Gotta Catch 'Em All Nudity Cards being the foremost offender), and more focus put on the major characters (this is especially true for the character arc of Triss and the relationship between her and Geralt).
The supporting cast was also extremely interesting, with Iorveth, Roche, Saskia, Letho and many more very memorable characters. I also found Geralt himself to be a much more fully developed character this time through, and a thoroughly fantastic one at that.
Not to mention that the game looked fantastic, especially for a game within this genre.

I loved this game, and have only minor nitpicks which I won't bother with here, and would be thrilled to see more content for such a wonderful and dark game as this, especially something like an old school Expansion Pack (*wink wink, nudge nudge*).

Simply not true. CDP is the kind of developer that listens what fans say. They really strive to deliver the best gaming experience they can. The EE of TW is the ultimate proof. And I'm sure they will improve TW2 a lot. There are many valid points here, not just nitpicking.

Yes, I know, yet Ironic that I started PC gaming a little bit (Maybe a year) before the Xbox so after then I started playing catch-up! (Due to starting on consoles in 90's then moving to PC in early 2K's!)

i was playing before, not much i was too young for most games, but even the games i did play had quality. and i still do play old games that i can get my hands on and they are just awesome with their ui's

Finished it maybe an hour ago, after three days. Amazing game, truly spectacular. UI issues were annoying and it was silly not being able to drink potions anywhere (I expected to at least be allowed to drink potions outside every combat), but overall it was alive and believable, and the best action RPG to come out in a long time.

I agree, yet I still play my old 16 bit-32 bit game in emulation, and plan to get the PS2/3 after a while as I'm a collector of Video games PC and Consoles alike, though my only beef with the changing gaming climate is that it's becoming too corporate, (EA, is a perfect example a scourge on gaming in general) which is a great concern for me, due to the fact that I'm going to school for graphic design. My plan is to someday work for Bethesda, though I'll take a QA position even!

careful about them, even they are not immune to greed

True, I have been researching differing Gaming companies through glassdoor.com where you can get feedback from anonymous employees who have worked and still work for those companies, and I've yet to see a listing for Zenimax, Bethesda, or even Bethsoft for that matter, however, I do respect that they are the only Gaming company that still is in charge of their own game development/schedule, that and the fact that for a PC game development company that they've STILL have been around since the beginning! But I'm still cautious of their motivation and worse case scenario, I can still use my bachelors degree in plenty of other fields.

they also published brink, i know they did not make it but using their publishing power they should have seen a few red flags and made the devs fix it. but then again they may have been a hands off publisher.
