The Witcher was released in 2007 so it wouldn't count.
This is true, except I wasn't suggesting The Witcher, but The Witcher Enhanced Edition released September 2008. Given the enormity of additions, changes, bug fixes, and so forth it could be considered a 2008 release. According to MetaCritic many outlets considered it a big enough re-release to review.
