    Thumbs up Buy PSYCHONAUTS Now!!!

    Or don't. But it's getting pretty good reviews, if not a bit mixed IMO.

    Psychonauts GameSpot 8.8/10
    Psychonauts TeamXBOX 9.4/10
    Psychonauts 1UP 9/10
    Psychonauts GamePro 4/5
    Psychonauts Game Informer 8.75/10

    *Ratings taken from www.gamerankings.com.*

    Finally, a platformer that introduces an entirely fresh intellectual property and has managed to live up to much of the hype it's generated amongst the hardcore misfits who've followed it as long as some of us have. Looks like I'll have to pick up an Xbox sooner than I thought.

    If you know nothing about the game, go to www.doublefine.com/products for a little taste, and then check out some of the various reviews popping up around the net.

    Yeah, I played the demo and it was good. But I won't have time for it for awhile. Definately getting it this summer.

    Played the demo, pretty cool game design, graphics, and the gameplay is fun to boot. Maybe one day when I finnaly have some extra $$ I'll pick it up.

    No, no impressions. I'd buy a copy, but I doubt my DVD player or any of my other consoles will play it. Or, to beat less around the bush, I ain't got no Xbox, brotha-man!

    Just trying to get the word out is all. Was shopping around for a couple Cube games yesterday, and didn't see a single copy at the two Gamestops I went to. I'd say that that says a little something about the game (either a tiny first release, or rabid consumption of the product on release).

    I will be picking this up in a couple weeks, when I get back on top w/ my bills and such. I'm kinda hoping that a good Xbox bundle will be announced and/or available soon. Say, a Jade Empire bundle for $200 or there abouts.

    Dude, you can buy the Xbox and Jade empire seprately for $200. I hope you get a better bundle then that

    EB always has deals. I think they rotate them every 3 weeks for the 3 consoles (one system and or its games on sale per week). Talk to a store manager near you (don't trust just any clerk, unless they have been there a while).

    I just can't believe it's that bad! Why? Why can't they do it right? It was done before.

    I plan on buying this game. Played the demo and loved even that little bit. Absolutely hilarious, and a great platforming experience, this is sure to be a classic if people take the time to recognize it.

    No, I am pretty sure you are thinking of Malice.

    Pyschonauts was delayed, but not 4 years.

    EDIT: This game was first announced at E3 2002...so it is kind of old, lol.

    Buying this probably this weekend. Now don't get me wrong, I love my FPS/stealth/etc. games, but it's been awhile since we've seen a great, creative, original game on the xbox and they'll surely get my $50.

    I hope this teaches lucasarts a freaking lesson.

    I believe it has been at least 3 years for Pyschonauts right?

    Oh well, I'm going to try and get it today.
