It would be really helpful if you would let us all know after you have
purchased your retail copy of "the Witcher2" the following critical
information:-
1. Is any copy protection present?
If so, what type (Securerom, Tages....) and the specifics of the
protection scheme chosen ( on-line authentication, disk-only
protection....etc. ).
2. The Publisher of your retail copy.
3. The ORIGINAL source of your retail copy (EU, UK , US ......). I am
assuming here that your copy will be "English-language"
I assure you that all the above information is necessary when picking
one's way through the retail copy-protection minefield.
Thanks in advance.
