    amazon.co.uk i got it for 21.73 euro. Haven't played it much though cos the controls are rough,

    was thinking of getting a new xbox360 controller and trying that for it

    Re map the keys a little. The default controls are badly laid out.

    I usually put left and right swing attacks on the q and e buttons. Makes the sword fighting playable.

    Actually, that xbox 360 controller is a godsend. Definately the best controller you can get for the pc. For the price anyway.
    But I troll.....

    Might try that cos I like the general gist of the game but its very awkward to fight tough or multiple enemies at the mo for me

    Gothic 2s fighting is tricky to get to grips with until you reach the epiphany where you get your head round the idea that you cant run madly about the place swinging your weapon. Youve got to stand in place and block/strike in a certain pattern. Skeleton warriors are the worst to fight - if you time the blows right, its fine, if you swing even a milisecond early theyll whup you.

    Either way fighting multiple enemies is a pain - esp goblins because they scamper all over the shop. Its a challenge though.
