I'm interested in this; downloading the demo now to see if I want to shell out the cash for it.

Check the witcher forums they have a link for you to atari where you need to send a mail. I had a response in 24 hours requesting a cd key cause I got an OEM version with my 8800gt.
To get a registration key for your OEM version of the witcher contact Atari using the folowing form:
http://www.atari.com/us/support/supportemail/supportemail_form.php?productName=The+Witcher
Just tell them you have a OEM version of the game
EvolveTom said:Eh, because if we didn't there's no way any store would carry it
It doesnt explain why you would need a registration key to download the updates though.
Surely if the game has been activated legally, the key is stored? I cant remember the process, but I know my Canadian Key didn't work properly...

Shit, I saw this thread the other day, but I didn't read carefully at all. Even though I won't have time to get into this game for another two months, I impulse-bought it on Steam. I couldn't help myself. I didn't realize that package was the regular retail edition. And I didn't see that deal on Impulse. Oh well, I hope I like this game. It'll the first serious RPG I ever play.

If I buy this from steam or Impulse will it detect my region and then give me the PAL version or US?
Maybe I'll just buy retail

I've already downloaded the unofficial patch but here is what Stardock (Impulse) said about bring the US version into the world of grown-ups:
I've used Impulse before, but this is the first time I've watched how they handle a new game from pre-launch. They are handling themselves very well, especially in terms of communicating with their costumers.

And couldn't you guys have at least mentioned that before release? The description of the Enhanced Edition states it comes with a manual, and nothing says that the physical contents differ by region.
The only vague hint was, "Product may not be exactly as pictured in your region." That could just have meant the packaging or art differed a bit, not that the contents would be different.
It shouldn't have been listed so prominently as something included in the box if it wasn't going to be.

I agree completely. I would have gotten the import version from GoGamer if you guys actually told us that the NA SKU was getting a gutted version.
Everything I read as well stated the game came with a manual. I mean of all the things to leave out of the box? It's the fucking MANUAL.

Is the patch for those who have the original game up yet?

One of the forum mods on Impulse claims that there's an uncensored version currently going through ESRB, and their hopes to offer an optional patch. Maybe it's true, maybe it's not.

Played the EE for 2 hours today, love this game. It was a tough call but Warhead wouldn't draw me in like this.
