The Weekspot podcast: Psychonauts 2 was worth the waitBrain power

Brain power

Double Fine did it: they made a sequel toPsychonautsthat’s great. And different, too. It’s a follow-up with modern day sensibilities that plays much better than the original. Given that it was one of our most anticipated games of the year, it’s fair to say we’re quite pleased.

Another enjoyable thing is that news happened over the last week. Great for anyone that does a podcast that revolves around current events in video games. While Volition haven’t officially announced it yet, Geoff Keighley appears to be gearing up to reveal aSaints Rowreboot at Gamescom, so we go into what we imagine that might look like. And Sledgehammer Games is going to World War II withCall Of Duty: Vanguard, but it sounds like they haven’t totally concerned themselves with historical accuracy.

Psychonauts 2chat takes up most of the runtime on this week’s show, though. It’s not like we didn’t have issues with the game, but those quibbles pale in comparison to how much we enjoyed it. It’s a cracker that you should most definitely play. Another game we talk about that you could probably skip isTwelve Minutes. A cool idea, but not marvellous in execution.
