The Witcher - Review @ GameBanshee

GameBanshee continues their celebration of The Witcher release week with Day 2 and Day 3 special coverage.  There's lots of media and information on the skills but their review is the centrepiece.  The score is 9/10 and here's a snip:

And so, after over four years of waiting, The Witcher has finally stormed retail shelves. Given the fact that I just recently posted an extensive hands-on preview, I'm not going to talk a whole lot about the game's mechanics again. What I will do is give an update on my experiences with the game in the dozens of hours I've played since that article was written. The Witcher is quite long and broad in scope (even by RPG standards), so I wanted to make sure I was able to tell you exactly what type of game you should expect. Therefore, I've been spending almost all of my free time with it, having just finished the game this morning after clocking in well over 60 hours.
