I just finished Psychonauts just in time! I'll introduce it, it is an amazing third person adventure thingy platformer about psychics. It does many things really well, the music doesn't distract but adds to the environment and the general feel of the game. The plot is as obvious of a string that leads to a ball of tangled mess. I'm not saying it is messy, I'm saying that you don't expect some parts of the story. The maps feel large and so big you have trouble finding the collectibles. The boss battles are engaging and interesting, every single boss needs you to use a different skill that you learn in a different way. The skills are fun to use but some are very stiff. The telekinesis is hard to use quickly so bosses that you need to use it on stand still like they know you need time to kill them. The menu and the level formats are a new take. You simply don't select the mind you enter but you must enter a mind using the psycho-portal then enter the mind selection once you use their mind to travel to others you can explore. There is so much to say about it but I don't feel like taking up all your time.
It is a funny, heavy and light atmosphere, humorous, vast game where you can get hours of gameplay depending on how well you play it. 100/100 flaming milk delivery men who sparkle
