Support NeoGAF

[RockmanWhore]

I won't buy it since I still possess the XBox version, but everybody who haven't played it yet should buy it. The gameplay is so-so but the writing and design makes it well worth it.

 

[DemiMatt]

hopefully its still on sale by the time I get home from work.

 

[ChoklitReign]

indigo prophecy rules!

Enjoy your Simon Says detective story that turns into a 2012-Matrix clusterfuck.

 

[ShinyBallBoy]

Already have it for PS2, but i'll probably bite again; Milkman Conspiracy alone is worth $2 imo.

 

[Gully State]

Are there any benefits over the gog.com version of the game. I was going to get it there as well, but for $8 less...

No DRM whatsoever and guaranteed to work with current PC/Windows OS which isn't the case with Steam.

Indeed

 

[szaromir]

It used to be free on Gametap, believe it or not.

Thanks, might be worth the $8 dollars.

No DRM whatsoever and guaranteed to work with current PC/Windows OS which isn't the case with Steam.

plus extra materials like artworks and manuals are available once you get the gog version.

 

[Chiaroscuro]

I have Psychonauts for the original Xbox. Is there anything significant that makes worth double dip in the PC version?

 

[Luigiv]

Great writing, terrible platforming.
Regardless, you could probably do worse for $2

Quoted for truth. Got the game for Xbox, can't even complete the bloody last level, it's so poorly designed.

 

[Deleted member 30609]

already own, but thanks!

 

[TheSeks]

I get what you're saying, but Psychonauts is actually a good, fun game.

No. It was another "me, too" platformer whose only saving grace was being a Schafer game with some interesting characters.

 

[Glandy]

hopefully its still on sale by the time I get home from work.

You have till Thursday

 

[Johningame]

$2 is an insane deal. A few months ago at K-Mart I found the Xbox version for $1.99. I bought two: one to play, one to keep sealed, waiting for Tim Schafer's autograph.

 

[Why would you do that?]

I love Psychonauts, but after playing it twice, I could never get enough "some collectable" to get the cobweb remover thing I need in the Milkman place.

Also, I would get this on the PC, but I really would enjoy it so much better on a console (3d platformers I love on consoles.)

I will likely buy it anyway, since I do love the game. I don't understand what people are talking about with terrible platforming?

 

[timetokill]

Finally, after many years, this game has finally come into my price range!

Seriously though, I'd missed out on this one and always wanted to try it. For $2 it's going on my hard drive whether I play it right now or not :lol

 

[szaromir]

Why the hate on the last level? I don't remember having any troubles with it. Of course, nothing beats Milksman Conspiracy.

I don't understand what people are talking about with terrible platforming?

Me neither.

 

[Acosta]

Not worth $2 imo

Yes, it´s worth much more.

I have an original PC version with box and everything that I bought day one. Unforgettable game, say what you want about the platforming (it´s decent) but the visual design it´s unmatched. It´s a great trip.

 

[Tain]

I have no clue what the complaints of the last level are about.

The game itself is pretty okay, I guess. I'm never going back to it.

 

[V_Ben]

i'm playing it with a 360 controller. apart from the triggers, everything works perfectly. and even then u can use some program to get those things working. plays beautifully on a 360 controller

 

[BlazeHedgehog]

This is so tempting!

But I really must save every penny for a new video card. Besides, I already beat Psychonauts when it was free on Gametap.

 

[Lijik]

I have no clue what the complaints of the last level are about.

Beyond the horribly frustrating escort mission it opens with, I don't either. I loved Meat Circus sans Lil Oly.

 

[Lime]

I've been keeping my eye on this for the last few months. I'm extremely happy it got reduced.

Bought.

 

[Edgeward]

I almost want to buy it been though I already played it and the fucking game won't play on my crap pc when I tried the demo. Maybe I'l try the demo again and see if I can run it now that I have my drivers updated.

 

[Aaron Strife]

well i was gonna buy a muffin today

decisions

 

[Misterproof]

Wow that's another great deal that I simply cannot pass.

That game is really nice. I'll have to find my old usb sidewinder controller. It's probably somewhere in the basement.

 

[cakefoo]

Would this translate well to a dualshock 3 using JoyToKey? Or is there a lot of mouse point-and-click adventure stuff?

edit: or third-person camera control?

 

[MoFuzz]

I will buy to support the dream of a PC version of Brutal Legend that will never materialize.

For those who have played it, how long does it take to to completete the game?

 

[Macho Madness]

Uhh No. Already wasted my money on this crap on Xbox Originals.

 

[The Omega Man]

Ok ok I bought it! who am I to say no to a 2$ game?
I'll play it after I finish AC2 and ME2, is it true this game is superior to Brutal Legend?

 

[LocoMrPollock]

Pretty sure it's got built in controller support that works fine.

Ok ok I bought it! who am I to say no to a 2$ game?

Fuck no it isn't. Not in any way. Don't even know why even the biggest fanboy on the planet would say some ridiculous shit like that.

 

[Snuggles]

Bought. I downloaded it for my 360 like 2 years ago but it took up a shitload of space and I didn't get very far. At $2 there's no reason to pass on this, unless you already own it.

 

[Torhthelm Tídwald]

Wonderful game. The PC version works fine with a controller, the only disadvantage is no rumble.

 

[Baha]

Bought it.

 

[evil solrac v3.0]

can't. have a backlog of 13 games i have to get thru.

 

[Benson]

Bought just so I have a copy easily on hand, can't really complain at £1. Does it run ok on vista/win7?

 

[Vorador]

Bought. Now it will have to swim among my vast backlog until i pick it up.

 

[Jangaroo]

So bought.

 

[Garjon]

Even though my nearly broken laptop probably won't even be able to play this, £1 is just way too good to resist

 

[nemesun]

done, thanks for the heads up.

 

[Oli]

Ugh, the demo was hard to play with mouse and keyboard. I'm tempted, but I'd need to buy a controller for it. :\

 

[DJ_Lae]

Bought. I already own the retail copy for PC, but it's one of those annoying four disc affairs that's a pain in the ass to reinstall and I'd pay $2 to avoid that.

 

[DrPirate]

For 2 dollars it's awesome. I was happy when I bought it at 15.

But I take issue with this game being "amazing".

Seriously...It had clever art design, and the lungfish level and the milkman level make the game. I personally found everything else just ok. As a game, I felt there were better platformers out there.

Still though, for 2 dollars you owe it to yourself to experience the game at least once.

 

[I NEED SCISSORS]

Bought.

Pity it's 3.7gb, otherwise i'd be all over this right now.

 

[farnham]

bought... the deal is just too tempting

 

[MoFuzz]

Have a backlog of 13 games i have to get thru.

That's like me.





Before the Steam Holiday sale that is. I don't even bother counting anymore.

Buy now, play later. That is the great gaming credo of... someone.

 

[The Omega Man]

Not in any way. Don't even know why even the biggest fanboy on the planet would say some ridiculous shit like that.

Easy there buddy, I am just asking since I have always heard good thing about Psychonauts when with BL it's always more of a "like it/hate it" thing.

 

[rjfs]

I'll have to pick this up. I had it on ps2 way back when but never finished it due t oa bug that deleted me save.

 

[DrPirate]

Easy there buddy, I am just asking since I have always heard good thing about Psychonauts when with BL it's always more of a "like it/hate it" thing.

Don't worry yourself. It's way better than Brutal Legend

(Which I bought on PS3 to support Shaeffer, Heavy Metal, and new ideas, to get a shoehorned RTS with amazing music and nothing original in terms of open world scavenger hunting).
