I downloaded this game when it first came out on a popular bittorrent site. I did this not because I couldn't afford the game, but because I hadn't had any experience with the franchise, and didn't want to pay for a game that wasn't any good. Fast-forward two months, and I just purchased it. I will continue to pre-order all games that come out in the franchise, since I've found the game to be fantastic. Everything about it is worth playing. I even went back and bought the first title in the series and played through it--another great game. My hat's off to CD Projekt Red for understanding that software piracy can be a marketing opportunity for those who make it so--it certainly was in this case. People will pay for games they love--if only to gain the ability to play future titles. Well done. On all counts.
