LOL, I love how they compare the intro cinematic, which is rendered by the game engine in the pc version and instead pre-rendered in a badly compressed video file on the x360... of course they look so different...
Back on topic: I downloaded just to see how it looked on the 360, and I, too, am impressed. The game looks basically the same as my pc could run it (some settings on medium, some on high), but much smoother. Best looking game I've seen on the 360 to date.

Yes , but every time I die..I delete those older ones , it's annoying but it's better that way.
Also I think it depends on your time & date settings , every time I finish playing I pull it out of the power socket..so my time always resets to default one. Some games look for that info when loading up your previous saves ( like Witcher ) , some games use their progression time..

Its a great game, remember, chapter 2 changes completely depending on your choices.
Dont know any other game that changes a big chunk of itself depending on player choice.

If you play in hard mode then prepare to Dodge a lot.
It also makes me think if the would have released on consolesast year it would have taken away goty from skyrim, the game has decision making which influences the game which I felt was not upto the mark in skyrim.
@deelix
Depending upon whether you helped roache or elf just before the fight with kingslayer determines the rest of game I.e the entire chapter 2 and chapter 3 will change which brings more gameplay value in second playthrough

How is the exploration on this game?
Is it open? Do you have side-quests to do?

There are sidequests, and you're free to explore the area you're in. However, not all the game world is open at once: there are 3 main chapters (4 actually, since there are 2 different second chapters). Each one is in a different area of the world, and you can only explore that area during that particular chapter.
If you're thinking about skyrim, then yes: you have much less "freedom to do whatever the fuck you want" in TW2. However, in my opinion, it's a matter of quality over quantity: skyrim is huge and deep, but a lot of it is repetitive (dungeons similar to each other, areas full of nothing but empty forset/snowfields/etc, busy-work side quests). TW2 is more "condensed". THe world is less big, but each area has a level of detail and "hand-crafted" feel that imho skyrim lacks. There are less side-quests, but they usually are more interesting/deep/connected to the main story than the a lot of skyrim sidequests.
To sum it up: TW2 is not focused on free-roaming or long hours of side-questing/grinding/exploration. However, it more than compensates the absence of a lot of "extra" contents (when compared to other rpgs obviously, it's still a pretty long/big game, with several side quests and things to do) with the very high quality of the content that IS present.

Thanks for the information.
If you do all side-quests and main quest, how long you take to beat the game?
