Post by: The Fake Shemp on June 22, 2009, 06:45:16 PM: I didn't pay attention to any coverage - did anyone here get to play it?

Post by: chronovore on June 24, 2009, 01:13:08 AM: I've seen it played, but haven't put my hands on it. It's gorgeous, especially the skies. The main part of controlling the character looks like pretty standard 3rd person stuff, but it's a bit more than that. I'll be buying the extra-choice special edition whatever set to get the artbook.

I loved the hell out of Psychonauts, and any Schafer-haters can go ahead and sac-gargle me.

I have yet to play a game of his I actually liked (I have not played Day of the Tentacle) There's a lot of hype for his stuff on the internet but that doesn't always translate to actual quality. I paid $15 for Psychonauts (Xbox version) and felt ripped off, for example.

I'm not going to get fooled a third time.
