Project Snowblind + Psychonauts demos!

Psychonuts is ok, but the controls are pretty damn tough
 
Tried the Psychonauts one and to be honest it looks nice, but the control system seems a little 'iffy'. The mouse felt way too responsive when I first loaded it up and even after pissing around with the settings it still felt like the mouse was tripping or something. Also the camera is a pain in the ass sometimes too.
 
Get a joypad to play Psychonauts properly. The right analog stick support seems to be weird, I move it up + down and it turns the camera left + right. I move it left + right and it zooms the camera in + out, very annoying/confusing.

It also crashed half-way through. It comes across as one of those games that's going to be lame for the PC since it's was made for consoles.
 
I really enjoyed the Psychonauts demo. Been waiting for this for a while, and it pretty much lives up to my expectations....but nothing more. I'm sure the full game will offer more (duh!). I was surprised at the slowdown at certain parts of the game, and I totally agree with the controls....they aren't quite right. Still, I shall purchase this game upon release.
 
Im buying Snowblind soon. Downloaded the demo to keep me busy for a few mins. Psychonauts looks retarded.
 
downloaded the Snowblind demo but I dont know how good/bad it was, cuz I woke up at the foot of desk with the game still running ...something about all those crazy effects and million things happening on the screen at once might have caused me to have a seizure :o ;)

It was made by the guy that designed Monkey Island :monkee: :monkee:, Day of the Tentacle, Full Throttle and Grim Fandango.

Snowblind is teh smell. And I don't use "teh" lightly.
 
Yeah but can nayone tell me why I can't run it, the first time i ran it it was fine and everything looked fine, I played it on the highest settings, realkly smooth fun game. But then it crashes and now every time I try to start the game, it freezes my PC, I have to reboot it.

Looks like it was made for 5 year olds.
You're right, Monkey Island 4 was crap, but I don't think Tim Schafer had anything to do with the MI series after the 2nd one. Read some reviews instead of looking at screenshots.

I seriously can't believe you've never heard of Monkey Island before. It's one of the reasons so many people are obsessed with monkeys. That monkey smiley wouldn't be there if it wasn't for this game!

That also means you've never heard of Murray the demonic skull!!! "Could you pick me up so I could bite you?", ahahahahhaa.

One of the best and funniest game series ever created. I suggest getting "The Curse of Monkey Island" (MIsland 3) to break you in, since I doubt you could handle the awesome graphics of the first 2.
 
I never played any of the Moneky islands, i just know its a fave of many ;)
 
Man, how do you go through becoming a gamer without hearing about at least Monkey Island or Grim Fandango?
 
For a while I was undecided between Grim Fandango or Half-Life being my favourite game. Damn, things were good back then......
 
Monkey Island rules :D i wish they were to make another 1
 
I liked Grim Fandango, but god damn it was hard! I was always lost.
