Psychonauts Coming to PlayStation Network Next Week

Just a quickie in case you hadn’t heard: Psychonauts is coming to PlayStation Network as a PS2 Classic!

Released back in 2005, Psychonauts was Double Fine’s debut game. And what a debut it was, taking players on a psychic adventure into the minds of Whispering Rock Psychic Summer Camp’s inhabitants. For laughs and pure imagination, not many games come close.

And now you can download it on your PS3! Well, not now exactly, you’ll have to wait until August 28th. Stop being pedantic.

This game was on the last humble indie bundle so if you had a PC that could run it (pretty easy feat) there is absolutely no reason you shouldnt have gotten it then.

I'm a little disappointed. The Steam-version has achievements, so it wouldn't be a big deal to add trophies and release it as a PSN-game even without HD :(

One of the best games of last gen. This game made me fall in love with Double Fine.

Part of me wants to buy this, but the other part is like its $10! Just go buy a PS2, especially considering they're just releasing it as a PS2 Classic with no bells n' whistles.

Man, this game was amazing and vastly under-appreciated by many gamers. Bummed it doesn't have the trophies that Steam does, though. $10 is a steal for this game though. A few hours of quality entertainment, a good plot, and good gameplay.

Great game, but I already own it on the PS2 and Xbox.

Doesn't anyone else feel like the PS2 Classics is a bit of a slap in the face after they removed our PS2 compatibility? I know I'll probably get negatives for saying that, but it's how I feel.

I used to enjoy these discs in the 80GB PS3 through pure emulation. Then a few months ago my system YLOD'th on me and it was replaced with a Slim model with the PS2 compatibility yanked away.

Since it didn't contain the Emotion Engine chip of the 60GB I really can't see why they removed this other then to only allow us to play these via PSN (IE: buying them). :(

I also wouldn't mind buying them a second, or in this case, a third time, if they would give it an HD facelift and add trophies.

Why not just give us an HD upgrade? Considering I already own a hard copy of the game and my PS2 is still in perfect working order after all these years I have 0 reason to buy this.

Psychonauts is a great game. I recommend it to everyone who likes platformers and/or humor in their games. I also recommend it to everyone who whines about how gaming is just first person shooter after first person shooter (which is wrong, BTW). Here's one of those original games you keep begging for, so fucking buy it and fucking play it and stop fucking whining about CoD and Battlefield.

@12: People like you are the reason why other gamers hate trophy collectors. They see utterly shit comments like yours saying that you refuse to buy a great game just because it doesn't have precious trophies in it and they think we're all as awful as you are.

I'll stick to my Steam version. Barring the cut scenes, it'll look better on my PC than this.
