"PLAY THIS"!
Released back in 2011 but still (as of 2013) one of the best looking PC titles around. These ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ sure know how to squeeze some pretty pixels out of modern hardware.

Pros:
Awesome writing
Only 3rd person game to date that felt immersive to me
Pretty good combat

Mediocre:
Potion system is just plain weird

Cons:
Difficulty curve can be unforgiving at times
A very silly bossfight: "Use the YRDEN!"

Looking forward to The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. I wanted to give the first game in the series a playtrough, but it is just too damn ugly after seeing the sequel.
