Psychonauts

[firstfrost]

Whee! I just finished Psychonauts. It was adorable and clever and very full of shtick and lots of fun. (Lungfishopolis!) I know World of Warcraft is the crack of choice, but if anyone else still plays single player PC games, and are (like me) several years behind in current games, you should play this (and lo! I have a copy for you!). It's by the designer of Grim Fandango and Monkey Island, except a platform game instead of an adventure.

Hee! I guess I'm even further behind the curve than you, since I'm still "working on" the last two games you handed me down.

... those credits and that description are high praise indeed.

i may need to go ahead and... oh, is someone starting an instance run? oops, back in a bit.

Oh oh, I like sinple playre games! Can I get on queue for a turn?

Well, you seem to be the first unambiguous "yes", so it's yours, and I'll try to get it to you in a timely fashion. If you want to give it to Andrew (or crs, if he's actually a yes) when you're done, you can do that. :)

It is rumored that giving things to me is a good way to get them to her.

That sounds like (the beginnings of) a Plan, since poker nights seem to have derailed on the lack of free days in common. :)

Meg is my drop site :).

Keen! I'll be at Word Game's at Meg's tomorrow night (Wed), if that makes pickup easier.

I have handed off Psychonauts to Meg.

I was busy saying "ooh!" until I got to the part where it wasn't an
adventure game. It does still sound fun, but I wish for a new
*adventure* game by the designer of Grim Fandango and Monkey Island. =P

(though speaking of which, the new Sam and Max "episodes" are fun,
perhaps as funny as the original though not as good overall as far as gameplay.)

Andrew might like a turn.
