Excellent Game Psychonauts thread

[Subzeroace]

I made this to cont the recent awesome of the "What game are you playing now" thread! phrase me mods! I follow the rules!

For those don't know; Psychonauts is an Excellent game made by former LucasArts/LucasFilms Games employee Tim Schafer 's company Double Fine Productions. The game is about this little kid name Raz who has psychic powers and lives/works in a circus. But unlike normal 10 year olds Raz (VO: Richard Horvitz) decides to run away from the circus and goes to a psychic training camp for kids known as Whispering Rock.

Raz makes friends, with many other little psychic children and has fun earning psychic badges allowing him to use more psychic powers until DISASTER STRIKES! And EVIL Dentist is stealing the kid's brain to make psychic powered death tanks to conquer the world! Raz, the only one left in the camp must track the evil dentist down by going into the minds of mad men(/women) before the world is changed forever!~~~

It's on PS2, XBox and PC. You should find a copy now if you haven't played it already... It's the best ever =O

Anyway;

He's my favorite too <3 I loved Sasha Nein and Boyd XD And yeah, Richard owned. Sometimes it really sounded like he was just saying stuff into the microphone and Tim said "We'll use that one!", like in Velvetopia (Edgar Teglee), when you're in the underground bathroom facilities, Raz goes: "This reminds me of college... uh, which is weird, since I'm only ten." XDD

man, I so want Psychonauts merchandise Currently I'm eying the Psychonauts signed PS2 PAL version with Tim Schafer's autograph (honestly, the humor of the product description makes me want it more and more every second)

"Signed by Tim Schafer
If you purchase this product, you agree to allow us to break the cellophane wrapping, and then do to with that cellophane wrapping whatever we want, including just letting it sit on the floor for a week."

A Psychonauts thread you say? XD ... *procastinates*

The quotes says high school but same idea XD

I have the PS2 NTSC XD It's signed by the man himslef too =D
"Subz, you have the insanity of a manatee! - Tim S"
He even has it in a text bubble so Loboto is saying it ^^ And remember if you get him to sign a copy for you, he'll write whatever you want on it!

I have some more Double Fine swag as well ^^ I have the floaty pen and the rare cut scene DVD, both of which came free with my order!

I really have to add some of the shirts to my X-mas list though! Maybe the soundtracks and the cover art poster too ^^

Yay Psychonauts thread tribute! I want to replay the game now... again <3

Oh priorities, priorities... I want to buy so many Psychonauts products, but, at the same time I wanna buy a PS3 so I'm ready when Brütal Legend comes out D: what to do? I also owe my significant other like a hundred bucks XD

I think this thread needs some... SCREENSHOTS/random pics If that's okay?

We can't have a Psychonauts thread with out a mention of one of my most favorite video game characters in the history of video games, I speak of none other then


Boyd Cooper (A.K.A The Milkman)

[Subzeroace]

Oh Boyd! Your head is my fav world :3 I love the G-men too

Remember, not all milk is enriched!

[Zeitgheist]

A Am The Milkman, My Milk is Delicious

A quote used way too much IRL and on the internet by me, and resulting in many dirty comebacks XD I will NEVER stop saying it, though! Sometimes someone at the ends of the world will actually realize what it's from, and that makes it all worthwile <3

Taranchula: Now that you're here (or, well...) I just wanted to say that I've always wanted to tell you that your avatar rules. I had so much fun playing Hotel Dusk 215 Hyde was so realistic as well as all the other characters both in speech and behaviour, and the art/style was amazing

And Boyd Cooper, I mentioned in the other thread that he's my favorite next to Sasha... I just love how they scrambled his face XD Also saw a REALLY neat fanart of him on DeviantArt: http://mct421.deviantart.com/art/Boyd-Cooper-53433286

"Hey, is that milk regular kind, or the exploding dream kind?"
"It's fortified with what the world wants. What the world deserves."

No doubt about it, The Milkman Conspiracy is the greatest course

[Subzeroace]

I love how the G-Men talk ^^

I am a Canadian Fosters Home for Imaginary Friends fan, this is my cable modem.
I watch every episode when they are available for me to download.
Teletoon makes me unhappy because they move this animated program around their schedule quite often.
Frankie is a excellent character as she truly cares for others.
L.O.L, Mac and Bloo may fight but they are still best friends in the end.
Look at my fan art.
I can not draw Eduardo well but I make up for it by drawing Bloo with a million different expressions.

[Zeitgheist]

The G-Men are priceless XD They were actually what made me think of Psychonauts as NOT being a kid's game, because, at first the story comes off as sort of kiddy and the theme as well (not that there's anything wrong about that, I love both aspects)

"Look at that woman's breasts. They are large."
"Although over time, my husband will desire me less, sexually, he will always enjoy my pies."

Raz: "I work in the sewers."
G-man:" Gross! That is a terrible job! I would never let you date my daughter."

...brilliant XD

Are we forgetting about our good friends Crystal and Clems little... Erm... Problem? Surely THAT says "Don't let kids play this game" more then the G-Men
