Psychonauts

To start off my page of awesome games you should be playing, or at least have played, I have to dub Psychonauts as the greatest video of all time. This is an opinion, not a statement.

Yatzee puts it the best when he does his Zero Punctuation post on Psychonauts , but I have to reiterate it's amazingness for you.

Psychonauts features a young boy named Raz who runs away from the circus to go to Whispering Rock Psychic Summer Camp. After showing an aptitude for strong psychic ability, he trains by delving into the very psyche of his teachers to help them overcome their phobia's and / or harmful childhood memories.

While Raz, you, are wandering around slipping into the messed up and deranged minds of his fellow campmates, a dastardly plan is afoot. Someone is stealing the brains of all the psychic children. As non of the camp trainers realise what is going on, it is up to Raz to save the day.

I wont give anything else away by telling you anymore plot, but know that you may come up against telekinetic floating bears that want to eat you, a giant Lung Fist, psychic death tanks, and well, need I go on?

This is a colorful, imaginative game that harbours all the twists and terrors ones mind can hold. It takes you through butcher shops and disco lands, and a city of talking fish.

So don't pass up the chance to play Psychonauts, the only thing wrong with it is the lack of a sequel.
