Witcher Console version canned

[Stefan9]

Bad news for the people involved and console gamers but probably means we see witcher 2 sooner.

GameBanshee claims The Witcher: Rise of the White Wolf has been canceled, according to an "inside industry source". The newsbit says CD Projekt Red started three simultaneous Witcher developments after the PC version shipped - Rise of the White Wolf, The Witcher 2 and a new game altogether:
The piece goes on to say resources have been concentrated behind The Witcher 2.
Meanwhile, Edge Online is running a similar story with the source stated as a translation at IncGamers from Polish site, Polygamia. From the IncGamers translation:
A lack of outright denial might be seen to add credence to the claims.

Well witcher would never have worked on a console.
I remember playing oblivion on console and then on pc, and the pc version was miles better!!

Another game I've been wanting to try for ages. I wouldn't have gotten it for my 360 anyway, though. Regardless, it's a pity it's been canned.
