Gamestop computer for 4/25 shows the ship date of 4/25 and not shipped.
The papers show it did not ship and is not expected.. looks like it may be another day

The 10 people who planned on buying the game probably already have it for Xbox.

Another day of torture for PC gamers.

Damn, beat me to it.

 

[Speevy]

Damn, beat me to it.

Awww... Poor guy. Nearly a 90% rating, universal praise from critics and gamers alike.

 

[Suikoguy]

I'd rather wait and play it in HiDef 1080i on my LCD Projector
*hugs ATI card*

Damn, beat me to it.

Feel free to troll the stickied Psychonauts thread. I've already started it for you.

I never said it wasn't a good game. I'm just stating it isn't going to sell. Quirky niche games have a chance if they're Japanese, but Psychonauts is headed straight to the bargain bin despite it's obvious quality.

 

[Teknopathetic]

Platforming's a niche? What?

That wasn't directed at you. The other guy's made some previous comments about the game.

Ok, maybe niche isn't the best descriptor for a platform game, but western made platformers might as well be. Aside from Jak/Ratchet - can you think of any that have been popular over here?

 

[Teknopathetic]

Don't forget Sly Cooper. And quite honestly, other than these 4 + Voodoo Vince, how many have actually been *made*? Not quite a fair question.

Edit: Oh, and don't forget oddworld/Rayman.

 

[AntoneM]

the Crash series...

--edit--
so that's, Jak, Crash, Spyro, Rayman, and PoP all made by western devs and all very popular games.

I know Psychonauts is going to sell like shit but people around GAF shouldn't ignore it. This is a GOTY calibur game. Infact this is probably one of the best games of this generation. No joke.

Psychonauts is the best thing Tim Schafer has ever done.

 

[Speevy]

It really is that amazing. I have absolutely no reason to praise it otherwise. Never played an adventure game, never heard of Tim Schafer before 2002.

I wouldn't doubt it. I'm looking forward to playing it eventually. Grim Fandango is one of my favorite games, so if Psychonauts is better than that - I'll be quite pleased.
