    "I can't say anything obviously for gazillions of reasons but it is a Witcher game, and I can say that console gamers might be interested in it," he explained.

     

    "No, I'm not going to lie to you, we haven't started work on The Witcher 3," he said. "But it's possible we might do it in the future."

    It's not "new" if it was going to be The Witcher 2 port. I was hoping for a new IP entirely.

    Yeah i wouldn't be surprised if they announce a console port of the Witcher 2.  It's getting good praise from the gaming community and it would be a wise investment to tap the console market as well since it's definitely bigger than the PC gaming market.

    It's obviously Witcher 2 for consoles, how can it not be?

    you all wrong. they won't introduce console version of TW 2 in E3. they will announce totally new IP. of course, they have a plan to make console version. 
    but don't expect too much. they could abandon it just like what they did for the witcher 1. so don't be too excited.

    @Edwardryu: The game is being received very well. Better than DA2, and that's getting a sequel. The Witcher didn't do so hot, even over a long period of time, so I doubt it would have been worth it for them to go and port it. This game also works very well with gamepads, so it would take a lot less modification to mechanics, letting them focus on just getting it looking perty and runnin' smooth. Between it's success on PC, and the very weak offerings for games of this type on consoles that are actually really good, I'd guess this will be on consoles, and do well for them.
