Thanks so much, I am really looking forward to this. I have not bought a game in more than two years or more could not buy Witcher 2. Whicher really made me unhappy, but I still have the first one. I do thank you both for the information. It has been quite awhile since I have been on here, but I am back now and will pester you all again. Thanks Maggie

Karsten I have always played with a mouse, I just only play point and click and was and still am miserable that it was not 100% point and click. I have one bad wrist which I have had for years, I am now getting shots in it, but they do not last long, The Witcher is my all time favorite game, I still have it on and play it. Have you played Witcher 2 ? Maggie  P.S. I have looked at all of the trailers, even the ones in Russian, I do not understand a word, but different shots which are great, so thanks again, will be happy when I get it.

So sad to hear about your bad wrist As for me playing Witcher 2: No,sadly, I haven't played Witcer 2, my 9 year old computer with 512 MB 3650 Radeon graphics card isn't quite up to the task I fear. I also still have tons of other game to complete.... As for Witcher 2 have you considered a gamepad? I've heard of - and even seen people - with conditions like yours - be able to play Witcher 2 with a gamepad. I'm not degrading your bad wrist...I'm making a suggestion here that might help you...

Hello again I have heard about a game pad but do not know how a game pad works at all, in fact I am so far behind that I could not even tell you what it looks like. I am getting better at my computer though, but not that. Our son had someone like a steering wheel, at least to me it looked like one (??) and I could not work it at all. Yes I have had the problem with the wrist since I broke it some years ago, the Doctor told me I would have some, but I did not think it would be this bad. I have had my tech update my computer quite a bit. He has but the newest bios on it, which are not really new, they do not put them out very often. Also I have 1 Terabyte of Hard Drive, he laughs at me and says I will never use that. If you can tell me how the game pad works or works or shoot me a link to one I will look, I am so use to using my mouse gusess I am a chicken. Thanks so much Maggie

Maggie, several members use This Gamepad. Controllers that look like the ones for consoles are also called Gamepads and can be used on PC, so if you decide to go with one, be sure you see a picture before you order.

Hi Looney4Labs I just saw the picture and well I need some information from you. Since I use my mouse for everything, can I just use this for walking in "The Witcher " or do I use the whole pad? How different is it? Except for the walking keys, is it about the same? Thanks Maggie

It works great with Witcher 2 and I believe you can do almost everything with the mouse and just use one finger to move on the keyboard. In Witcher 2, your mouse is your action key for combat talking to people and opening doors etc. So you can do everything you need to do on the keyboard with one finger. PS it's also available at Walmart and you can order online from Walmart and pick it up at a store near you.

Maggie, I have that Cyber Snypa and you can use it right along with your existing keyboard. I have my mouse to the right of my keyboard and the Cyber Snypa to the left of the keyboard. The Cyber Snypa is essentially another keyboard, just much more convenient with nice big comfortable keys. Plus, since it's separate from your keyboard, you can adjust the angle to be the most comfortable for you. Like oldman says, you use the mouse for action and the "W" key for moving around or opening you inventory or whatever. I couldn't game without my Cyber Snypa!
