Among the best games ever
This was easily the most creative and fun game I've ever played. I don't care for the platformer category, but this one was worth it.

Psychonauts
Description
Delve into people's minds as Raz, a powerful young cadet at a psychic summer camp. While working on his merit badge in levitation, Raz discovers that someone is kidnapping psychic children and stealing their brains. To foil this evil plot and earn the title of Psychonaut, Raz must project himself into the mind of one bizarre character after another to battle their nightmares and inner demons. He does all this while continuing to earn psychic merit badges in subjects such as telekinesis, clairvoyance and fire-starting.
This amazing 3D platformer adventure, full of brilliant humor, trippy setting, and surreal action, became famous for its originality and excellence of design. If you're looking for a unique gaming experience, this is a fine pick. More than just fine, as a matter of fact--double fine!

- A brilliant story that will not let go of you until you finish the game
- An absolutely unique atmosphere with a psychedelical level design by Tim Schafer's famous Double Fine team
- One of the greatest titles of the platformer genre

8.7/10
The first half of this game is easily one of the most enjoyable I've had in the past year. But as is the case with many humorous games, the laughs begin to fade in the home stretch and in the end Psychonauts started to wear on me.

8.9/10
Inspired, delightful and at times bordering on the insane. Psychonauts is mind-blowing, however it's tricky at times and definitely not for kids.

8/10
What's unavoidable is the fact that almost all of the problems that weigh Psychonauts down are borne out of the legacy that the platform genre itself has, and Double Fine - like so many other developers - has largely been unable to avoid falling into the same pitfalls of inconsistent level design and unwise difficulty spikes. Dammit.

Still an amazing game
I remember playing this - on the original first xbox. Two generations later, this game hasn't aged - the graphics and art are top notch, the game play is hands down more varied and interesting than newer titles. And the voice acting and story telling are absolutely unparalled. Get a usb console controller for the PC, it helps enjoying the game as it was meant to be played.

Even Better on PC
Just from a graphics standpoint, this game is light years better on PC than on the original console releases. No more muddy textures (save for the videos), smoother framerate, decent controls. Play it, or play it again.
