Belsirk: Try the Witcher 2, maybe will not be bad money for you, the controls from both games are very different (because the second was imported to consoles). Is not mandatory to play them in order and the awards are minors. Just one warning: QUICK EVENTS in boss battles (I personally disliked the witcher 2).
RyaReisender: Y'know what turns me off of The Witcher 2? That the gamepad controls on the PC version are so much worse than of the console version. Seems lazy that they don't provide the console-style gameplay for the PC version (especially since these days most people use an XBox Gamepad for PC).
You can't re-map the gamepad buttons in W2? If not, I'd bet there is a mod that does.
