Today is the day!!!!!!!!!!!!
Quote:
Psychonauts is a 3D action adventure game from the mind of Tim Schafer, designer of highly acclaimed adventure games such as Grim Fandango and Full Throttle.
I've been waiting a long time for Tim Schafer to make another game, and this one looks really good! Can we say underground classic? Smile Mainstream heads will want to stear clear of this one for sure...
And it is strange, I don't see many people talking about this one... WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!!!!!! Tim Schafer is a creative genius and this game is going to be GREAT! :Smile

Screen Shots

I can't wait any longer!!! I'm going to the store to buy this game and then I'm gonna come on here and tell you all how awesome it is! Smile

Yes this game looks to be very unique, especially the style of art!
I just played the demo and it's pretty fun although it was really just a simple tutorial. But the game did have me laughing pretty good, there is definately some good comedy in this one!
The best thing about this game is that it dares to be DIFFERENT! Yes, it's a platformer, but I think you will find it to be different than anything you have played. However, it does retain that abstract visual essence that Tim is known for (Grim Fandago etc)
It's good to see some smaller companies with the balls to try something innovative! I'm really getting sick of the repetitive nature and lack of creativity in the gaming industry these days...

OMG I know I shouldn't have said that word! Now all the clones are gonna come and flame me! God forbid developers start innovating...


Theres alot of people like that on this board. They only play the BIG titles of the year, and even they get repetitive and boring. I suppose innovation comes with the territory to. Most gamers here from what I know of 'em, love innovation in the survival horror, and fps genres. This game looks different and I'm willing to try it. It looks a bit like A Nightmare Before Christmas and something like the BeetleJuice cartoons. Laughing Fuck, I gotta try this.

I played the demo and found it great !
It reminds me of Rayman III for the graphics and Alice for the characters and the crazy levels.

Gamespot rated it 8.8, which is pretty nice.
I'll grab whichever version is out first - Xbox or Pc...

Gamespot says xbox version is better than PC version (probably because of controls, I dunno), so lets have some comparisons here!

Because GameSpot is XBox biast. I found some games that they said were better on XBox, better on PC. I played this on the XBox already and I have to say the controls are lacking for me. I'll wait for the PC version. They said the same thing for SC:CT for XBox just because it had splitscreen mode. Cant wait to try this for PC, and I'll tell everyone who hasnt tried this game yet, it is good. Its also pretty lengthy. For those looking for a challenge, its not that hard either. Its pretty straight forward. But no, its not a kiddie game.

And to answer the guys question above, yea Securom 7 is hard to crack. I'm sure one of the groups will tackle it.

This game is friggin' INSANE! You guys really need to play this, it's really good IMO!!! What the heck are they waiting for? Crack this mutha' quick!! Smile And forget gamespot, the PC version is WAY better! If only for the simple reason that you can turn the graphics higher than an XBox could ever imagine! Oh yeah and looking around the creatively-psychedelic landscapes is much more enjoyable with a mouse!

No I'm not kidding, you must be a fool to think games are better on such an inferior machine as an XBox. I have an 81 Inch projection TV that I hook my computer up to and I am playing my games on a HUGE WALL... Also, my video-card can run games at 1600x1200 resolution with Fullscreen Anti-Aliasing and Anistropic Filtering... Can your beloved XBox do that? NO.
So, considering I own both systems (PC and XBox) I, of course, choose the PC! The game was created on a PC, so why not play it on the type of system is was designed on? I also own a digital and analog controller for my PC, but yes I still play with a mouse on almost every game and it's WAY better. I guess maybe you aren't so good with a mouse, 'how poor is that'?
Now go back to your inferior system you pathetic little troll

From that statement I'm quite confident that you haven't played either version, so your opinion is obviously uninformed, biased, and just plain insignificant.

Well from your broken english, I could say you type like a 5-6 year old, but then I would be jumping to conclusions wouldn't I? Yes the game is a bit cartoonish and I'm sure it definately appeals to a younger crowd, but don't judge a book by it's cover. This game is definately not child's-play...

Anybody else want to slander me or the game with their uninformed opinions?

This game is great. I've been playing the xbox release. Nice sense of humour like all TIM SCHAFER games.

Try the demo you skeptical bastards.

I am playing Lego starwars Im 23 and I am Having a Blast!

so no you can't say a game is for kids just because it has what some calls kiddie graf. the only important thing about a game is, if you have fun when you are playing it, that's so simple as it is.
