"If there's one thing at E3 that's made me feel like we may have crossed a technological threshold this year – that soon, we're going to be able to play games that weren't possible on the current generation of hardware, games that are really different rather than just prettier – it's The Witcher 3."

"On this evidence, nothing comes close in fantasy RPGs right now. The Witcher 3 incorporates the best aspects of games like Skyrim, Dragon's Dogma and even a touch of Dark Souls, as well as all the strengths of its predecessors. It's huge, stunning to look at, truly open-world and open-ended, and phenomenally detailed, with the same sharp, characterful writing that elevated the first two Witcher games above all their contemporaries. This, for me, is what next generation really means. I cannot wait to see more of it."

I finally started playing Witcher 2 over the weekend, and now my PC's age is showing (running a Q6600 and GTX460), so this game might be the one that's going to make me upgrade finally.

[Meteor_of_War]

Yeah even one GTX 670 did not cut it in this game for me with max settings, especially at 1440p.

SLI scales great though. I can finally turn everything up including ubersampling. It is well worth it too, significant visual improvement.

[Seek & Destroy]

I wasn't even happy with Witcher 2 performance on a Titan. It runs pretty well with two though.

[Meteor_of_War]

Yeah, you need SLI for sure at 1440p.

● Unlock new blocking moves, attacks and evasions,

● Discover ways to stun foes, ignite them and control their minds with enhanced witcher Signs,● Poison their blades, set traps and blow their enemies to bits with bombs.

● When combined, these attacks kill more efficiently, challenging players to experiment, think creatively and devise new tactics.

● The number of attacks, parries and other combat moves has been greatly increased and rendered fluid with 96 new action sequences, compared to 20 in The Witcher 2.

● Three different sets of movement animations let Geralt adjust his stance to match the dangers he faces.

● Players enjoy complete control of Geralt in combat as there are no QTEs or scripted timing attacks.

● A new camera system, superior even to that utilized in the Xbox 360 version of The Witcher 2, shows fights in all their glory while keeping the focus on what the player needs to see.

● Geralt's character development visibly affects his behavior in combat: obtaining a Swordsman skill might increase attack animation speed, while a Mage ability could turn the Igni Sign into a torrent of blue flame.

● Each of the 80 monsters Geralt can encounter has its own habitat, strengths and weaknesses.

● Improved crowd AI means enemies communicate with each other in combat, coordinating their efforts to surround Geralt or deploy combo attacks.

● Monsters and other foes do not scale with the player: beasts that crush players with a single swipe at the outset become sword fodder by the game's end.

● Enemy morale shapes with their actions: opponents flee or fight more cautiously when scared, attack recklessly when desperate, and beg for mercy on their knees when defeat is inevitable.

● The environment is a factor in combat, and Geralt can use it to his advantage: he might destroy a hive to unleash an angry swarm of hornets on a foe, or cast the Aard Sign to bury a group of thugs beneath a toppled stack of barrels.

This is coming out in 2014 and i hope to high heaven that this game is not released within two months of Dark Souls 2 and vise-versa. I need time to complete and appreciate each of them accordingly
