CD Projekt unveiled the Xbox 360's Enhanced Edition of The Witcher 2 last month with a standout trailer and barrage of new features. That first clip took the unusual but engaging tactic of focusing on the game's antagonist, Letho. But now that you've got your head around all the console adaptation's enhancements, it's time to be (re)introduced to The Witcher 2's hero, Geralt of Rivia, caught in the middle of a gruffness-contest against the chrome-domed villain.

Above: The trailer is full of witching

As you'll have noted if you stayed right to the end, the Xbox 360 edition of The Witcher 2 will come in two sizes: the standard-issue Enhanced Edition and the further-enhanced Dark Edition. The latter includes an art book, making-of DVD and a medallion for you to wear whenever you wish to strike fear into the hearts of neighborhood black magicians. Here's hoping US-Polish relations are cordial enough for the President to get a free copy.
