Doublefine

DoubleFine is working on a new game. They haven't said what it is about yet but I for one cannot wait. Anyone else excited?

Psychonauts.

Speaking of, I hope this new game keeps Psychonaut's style of art. That was really cool.

I still haven't managed to play Psychonauts, what with my Xbox being on the other side of the planet both from me and any country where the game has been released. Rumour has it that it will be out in Australia next year so hopefully I'll be in luck.

But yeah, I'm very curious about what they're working on but I don't think they'll be telling us any time soon. I just hope it's something completely new and not just a sequel. Which is probable, seeing as Psychonauts didn't sell too well.

Yeah. It is definitely not a sequel. It will most likely feature more adult characters seeing as the youth of the Psychonauts characters is what Tim Schafer thinks made it sell poorly.

I would play Psyconauts, but it never seemed to come anywhere around here. Like, never.

The style seemed a little too sickly Tim Burton, but that can be overlooked.

The art style doesn't strike me as Burtonesque at all. Plus the art changes depending on whose mind your in. If you can find it YOU MUST PLAY IT. It is by far one of the best games ever made.

While you're waiting (if you haven't already done so) visit http://www.doublefine.com/news.htm and read all the news pages from day 1. It's damn funny.

I think... although this is going by my memory which isn't very good... I read somewhere that it's set for a March European release.

The Most Excellent Game PsychoNauts (The full, unofficial title) is a very respectable game. Tim is hilarious (As evident by his news page). Whatever he does next, I wish him luck and fortune...although I would hope that a sequal could eventually be crafted.

Or my personal favourite: Euphonious Salami Psychonauts.

Are people confused yet?

Clearly you're not really a real Doublefine fan.

I thought you guys might be interested to know that I have Doublefine's phone number. I bought some stuff off of their website and their number showed up on my statement.
