Try The Witcher 1 & 2 for free this weekend

Another weekend and another game which Steam lets its users try for free. This time we get to try the fantasy games The Witcher and The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings, based on the Polish author Andrzej Sapkowki's series of fantasy short stories.

Normally I would try a Steam-game during the weekend and then review it in one of my "A weekend with..." posts, but this time I won't play any of the games. The reason is the large game size. The first game alone is about 16 GB which would approximately take 20 hours for me to download. And I can't just let my computer "go on" 24 hours a day, can I?

Here's the official trailer of the first game:

J.K. Rowling: Harry Potter should have married Hermione Granger?

Alright... It seems J.K. Rowling wanted Harry and Hermione to become a couple and get married at the end of the Harry Potter book series, according to the articles found on Swedish Metro and Toronto Sun.

To be honest with you, I still don't like how everything turned out in the end. Although Voldemort was finally destroyed in the final book, many characters who I loved throught the series never made it to the end.

As for the shipping... When I read Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, I thought Draco Malfoy was harbouring secret feelings for Hermione. And when it later turned out that he wasn't as bad as people thought he was, I did think of him getting married with Hermione. That was until J.K. Rowling denied that theory.

What do you think? Should Harry have married Hermione instead of Ginny? I honestly don't know. Ginny deserves Harry, but I'm not satisfied with how the stories developed in the later books. They somehow felt rushed.

Here's an interesting video with 101 reasons to why Harry and Hermione should be together. The video was made and uploaded on February 19th 2012, long before J.K. Rowling was interviewed by Emma Watson in the mentioned articles.
