The Witcher 1 remake as parting gift for XBOX 360

If CD Projekt Red releases Witcher 1 on consoles, it'll be on gen 8 ones.

Ugh.  I don't think it will happen.  It is far to old and dated.  The Witcher 1 is right where CD Projekt Red wants it.  On PC.

You could always try asking on their Twitter.  See if you can get something started

Thanks Doc for the tip for Twitter.I think 1 guy asking for it is not gonna bring anything but if there would be a lot of us maybe,CD Projekt Red is known for listening to their fans i think,they even dont do preorder bonus items in game or paid dlc.Like you said Doc in my previous thread people nowadays want a new game in series out every year,no one much cares about good old games.I wouldnt mind if it comes on XBOX ONE either,would like to see good old games on the marketplace much rather then 90% of the new arcade and indie games.

I agree with Doc... I can't see it happening. There's more a chance of seeing the entire trilogy on current generations than seeing ye olde Witcher on the last generation. When there was a demand for it, it would have been totally viable though. But even then, well here's some old news [Kotaku link, boo, sorry] that highlights what happened there.

I'm thinking if The Witcher hadn't used BioWare's Aurora Engine the port would have been simpler. I can't think of a single Aurora PC game that found a home, in its PC form, on console. They had to be adapted dramatically in terms of gameplay and whatnot to find a home on a console.

I doubt it happening as well, especially on the 360.

Guys do you remember Crysis 1 and how late it came on XBOX 360 and how good the port was?I heard that most PC users had trouble playing it.

Yeah but CryENGINE isn't the Aurora Engine. The reason I can't think of a single Aurora game on console is because there wasn't a single one. BioWare's next engine after Aurora... the Odyssey Engine was the first to be optimised for console development.

Sometimes I think that people think porting games across platforms is like burning stuff onto a disc, and is as cheap, but anyhooooo... as has been mentioned by Kanaye... if there was gonna be a port it'd be on generation 8. The X1 is basically a PC in a box with a Windows Kernel buried somewhere in its soul. The 360 is a different beast entirely... doe. Heh.

I said a remake,it doesnt have to be the same engine.

A port would be cheaper than a remake, and I don't think a port would reap back development costs at retail. For a ground up remake I think you'd have to petition a publisher rather than CD Projekt Red for that one, they'd be fronting the spondooley. So maybe if Atari or Microsoft could be convinced to do a revamped The Witcher HD for Xbox Arcade or something...

... if you do petition anyone for anything, let me know and I'll sign it. {=)

Thank you guys for the replies,yeah i now also think it would be better if the remake comes out on XBOX ONE.It could have awesome graphics,new quests and all that!
