I was surprised the numbers seemed low on sales - Legend of Grimrock 20,000 in two months, The Witcher 2 40,000 in six months. They seemed to view those as good sales.

I wonder if these numbers include pre-orders.

Looks interesting....I just hope they don't handle the gun / shooting mechanics the way other RPG makers handle it (cough....Bethesda....cough).
I doubt they'd bother licensing an engine that isn't even supported, anymore. Bethesda should let it go ASAP. FO3 and FNV are great games, but Gamebryo really did hold them back in some ways.

*phew* Made it just in time for them to reveal details on the new RPG.

It's a mature cyberpunk RPG based on the well-established pen & paper games from Mike Pondsmith. I'm not familiar with him myself, but he seems like a great guy.
I didn't know he did Mekton Zeta or Castle Frankenstein until going to Wikipedia, just CP2020. They're all awesome games. That the guy behind CP2020 is working with the guys that managed to make TW1 and TW2? Especially given that he's kept on doing gaming work? An excited nerd, I am! "Here, CDPR, take my money!"

Thanks. I wonder if it will 'steal' ideas from deus ex. Anyways it sounds interesting and so far CDProjeck has delivered.
If they steal from Deus Ex, but Deus Ex stole from one of their people first, is it really stealing? :p
