On Monday, CD Projekt Red, apologized for not showing the game running on base models of last-generation consoles before it was released, removing the opportunity for gamers to make informed decisions about purchasing. 'We should have paid more attention to making it play better on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One,' the company said.
