And I thought CD P was their own publisher?
Depends on the country, I guess.

If it's performance optimizations, required to get this gorgeous game to run better on the Xbox360, then I'll be very happy, as my current rig struggles to run this well on Med to High settings. I've actually put the game down (after investing 6 or 7 hours) because I'm not pleased with the performance in combat. Granted, I could just go out and upgrade my aging CPU, graphics card, mo-board, memory, etc…… but I can't seem to justify when my machine plays all other current games on High settings.
But why are such large scale changes needed post-release? There should be a mechanism for testing games prior to release that enables devs to carry out improvements pre-release, especially if they're ones that can be made in weeks or months.
It's a bit like the add-in/add-on argument mentioned in another thread - people have played the game now - improvements will improve the experience, but it's a lot of effort for minimal gain if it's only noticeable on a repeat play through. If the effort is on expanding the game in a way you can enjoy after a play through then even better IMHO.

Is it just me or is it really odd that everyone is excited/happy/supportive of this considering we have almost no information. Anytime I see something like this I always hear "Dungeon Lords Collector's Edition" repeating over and over again in my head in a spooky voice…
It could also be a way to get around a publisher who were withholding payment due to legal issues. New version, new distributor, no more money going to N-B.A new 2.0 version means they'll be able to replace the old retail SKU while keeping the price high or even raising it slightly. This increases the sales window until the game hits budget price.
Read my review. The release game was good, but could have been better.What makes you think these changes were "needed"?

That sounds like it could take a few months. Should I delay my first playthrough?
But you know how the first playthrough is usually the most memorable, after having recently replayed the original I wish I would have waited for the Enhanced Edition just for the loading in the Prologue.Definitely not imo. You have to play it twice to see the whole game anyways.

Hmm. Not going to complain about free stuff, but it's not really the kind of thing I was hoping for. I was mostly hoping for expansion type content in the form of new quests or areas. Probably a bit naive, but there it is.
