Obama cares: The President's praise of The Witcher shows growing importance of games to international trade

Poland is so proud of its gaming industry that its prime minister gave the President of the United States a copy of one of its biggest games when he visited in 2011.

Obama is back in Poland today, and while he hasn’t had time to play it, he pointed to The Witcher franchise as evidence of how the country is establishing strong and diverse talents. At a press conference in Warsaw, he noted the title is representative of the nation’s growing economy.
