The review wasnt great but some of the stuff at the end was funny.

Thought the review was excellent.

Bit at the end was pretty terrible.

I particularly enjoyed his description of how the game is designed to be too complex for console owners and is targeted at the pc-using master race

Dirty console playing peasants . ., heheh,

From the Witcher demo I played I have to agree wholeheartidly with him. Never have I been so bored by a game in my life. Combat was pointless and the story was as generic as most of lidls stock. The attempts at making it a 'mature' game only succeed in making it childish. I'm glad I'm a dirty console playing peasant if I never have to play **** like that again

He's been ripping the piss out of Painkiller for a while now (including doing a Let's Play on SA). This is just the next step, i like it.

Nice review too.

Momorpgah, great review, painfull Painkiller bit, see wht I did there?

His comments on the game was funny as always but the bit at the end was rather rubbish.

I would not say I disagree with his review as I don't consider his videos segement a review its just an excuse to ridicule 99% of the game he plays and they should not being taken seriously or used in a purchasing decision for a video game.

Ignoring the few bugs I have had with the Witcher in the short playing time I have with the game I think it looks really promising.

I've found his reviews to be more accurate than most other gaming media.

Review was one of the funniest in a while.
(I rate them by how many strange stares I get in the office for laughing out loud)

Painkiller bit was terrible.
