Psychonauts 2 Review -- Mind Over Matter | GameSpot

Psychonauts 2 does more than just fill the shoes of its beloved quirky predecessor, it sets itself apart as a classic in its own right.

Nice

[roadkillers]

Yeah, once I beat Hades (Long game, might not finish it this year) I will move on to replay 1 then this. Good value Gamepass, $180 for 3 years and no console.

[dbcoops]

$180? That seems awfully steep, everyone keeps saying they're getting multiple years for a dollar, how did you pay so much?

[BETA104]

@dbcoops I think he is referring to the cost of adding 3 years to his XBOX Live Gold subscription. At $60. per year for a max of 3 years, you will spend $180. then the cost is $1. to convert to Gamepass Ultimate.

[roadkillers]

Yeah, that's what I did. I figured it hasn't even costed me an Xbox Series S yet. Get another 3 years for that price and it would cost me an xbox series S and a game. Not bad for a whole generation.

I was blown away when I played Psychonauts on Ps2. It's great to see franchise flourishing.

One thing about review is he said "Bosses are same-ish and bit cliched". I don't understand this bit. In any game bosses are always same. you get powers you kill with new powers etc

am I missing anything?

Reviewer just said that they are all very similar in both look and execution. Big circular/side to side arena large towering from the waist up design with smaller minions to distract. Not all platformers are setup this way and in my opinion it be a miss to just gloss over this for a higher score. They gave it a 9 its hardly a big dig at the overall game

[Obscure_Observer]

Awesome!

Just completed ratchet and clank and cant wait to dive into this now. This generation has had an excellent start!

[RaidenBlack]

Gamespot being a contrarian and awarding a 9, says something.

[Bruh]

Platformers are getting a lot of Love I'm super glad Sony let Insomniac continue to invest in R&C and Microsoft let Double Fine go Wild With Psycho

[SockeyBoy]

oh awesome. I'm so keen!!

[alb1899]

I'm excited about this one. Getting a lots of good reviews.

[-Hermit-]

Been looking forward to this game for years. I didn't play the first one until a long time after it released and I loved it. I am hopeful that the 2nd one will be just as good, maybe better.

Yet another game I have downloaded and ready to go on Gamepass - which is really starting to be an unbelievably good deal lately.

[alb1899]

Gamespot doesn't give a 9 easy.

[iplay1up2]

Can't wait to play this!

[Donjune]

Good that it's on PC and PS4.

[Orchard]

Yep - the more people who get to experience PN the better - and more sales/subs is great for DF and MS.

We might even get a PN3 and a Brutal Legend sequel if we’re lucky.
