Pshaw. I have that already- I've finished it three times.
We can play the PC version, if you'd like. ^^

Or, if you have it... I think I actually uninstalled the PC version.

... Crap, I did.

Have you got it?

If you have, then Midsummer! BRING THE X-BOX!

Midsummer: On the subject of Psychonauts' plot...

It's about this young psychic named Razputin (Raz for short) who runs away from his home- the circus- to Whispering Rock Psychic Summer Camp to become a psychonaut, which is basically a psychic secret agent. Once there, fishy things happen, and only he and his friend Lili can save the camp!

It's bloody hilarious.

You go into people's minds for the levels, and once in socialize with embodiments of their personality and memories, and try to solve their problems.

It's cool, because later on, you do the following things in the game:

-Stand on Lungfish when you become a giant Raz in the mind of Linda the Lungfish. "HE'S HEADING FOR THE ORPHANAGE!"

-Talk to badly-disguised secret agents (people with blue skin, glowing red eyes and wearing trench coats) who believe that holding a rolling pin immediately makes them a housewife. The best part? They're all voiced by Steve Blum (and if you don't know who that is, then you're a FAILURE AS A VINCENT FANGIRL!), and talk in the same monotone as our beloved Vinnie whilst saying things like "If my husband comes home, and he is drunk, I may use this rolling pin to beat him."

-Go into a circus made of meat, and watch people fall into giant blenders (less gory than it sounds, trust me).

-Meet a talking turtle.

-And a dentist who harvests brains.

-... And Sasha Nein, by far the coolest green-skinned guy ever to appear in a game.

My parents won't let me bring my 360

Oh, and yay! ^-^
Though I've only played it once

By Pyro. 12/06/08, 10:12 am

It's such a cool game, eh?
I like the Milkman Conspiracy and the Meat Circus.

By Lavi_x. 12/06/08, 10:15 am

Ehehe
Beyond Good and Evil is also good

By Pyro. 12/06/08, 10:42 am

I've been meaning to play that for ages. >>;;

By Lavi_x. 12/06/08, 10:48 am

I've been looking for a copy of it for a while now.
Only been able to hire it

By Pyro. 12/06/08, 11:46 am

The PS2 version's available pre-owned at Riccarton EB Games, if that helps.

I was tempted to buy it... It's only like, $20.

By LintuwolfWiing. 12/06/08, 12:54 pm

Um, is there anything you want me to bring? Video games, food, etc?

Wiing

By Pyro. 12/06/08, 01:31 pm

Hm...

Food would be most useful. ^^

Unless you've got any really cool games.

Hey -- are we going straight from the cosplay meeting to your place?

By Pyro. 12/06/08, 01:40 pm

Yep!

Probably stopping at the supermarket or something on the way though, I guess. ^^;;

Food I can do.

But games...Well I have okami for PS2 which is quite good. I've got other games but you have them or they're not very good. I have some PS1 games though.

Wiing

By Pyro. 12/06/08, 01:48 pm

Ooh!
Ooh!

What PS1 games you got?

By LintuwolfWiing. 12/06/08, 01:53 pm

Um...*Goes to look*
Theme park
Spyro (the first and best one)
Metal gear solid
tony Hawk's pro skater2
and command & conquwe-red alert

I'm missing quite a few...I do have others but I don't know where they are. I'll ask my brother if he has them at his place and get back to you. But these are the ones I have right now.

Wiing

By Lavi_x. 12/06/08, 01:55 pm

Metal Gear Solid ^-^

By LintuwolfWiing. 12/06/08, 01:56 pm

Indeed. I love that game

8O

I've always wanted to play MGS.

Bring it?

Also- Lavi, any idea where we could rent a PS2 or X-box version of Psychonauts from?

By Lavi_x. 12/06/08, 02:42 pm

ummmmmmmmm

Hmmmm, I haven't seen it anywhere I don't think

Its hard enough finding it in stores

Sweet, awesome! =D

I have many PS1 games too if any of these interest you -
FFVII (lol), Grandia, Suikoden Vandal Hearts, Breath of Fire 3, and Wild Arms. =D

By Lavi_x. 12/06/08, 02:54 pm

BREATH OF FIRE AND WILD ARMS ARE AWESOME
And FFVII obviously

By Pyro. 12/06/08, 03:14 pm

Yeah, bring FFVII!
I don't own it myself (I fail as a fangirl, yes, I know)

Can someone bring a PS1 memory card, by the way?
Mine's in Wellington.
(Long story.)

**Guest** Guest

Yup sure, I'll bring one! XP

By Willuknight. 13/06/08, 04:04 am

hey Pyro, could i come?

I've been missing most of the recent cosplay meets cos of crappy work (i was at the first one though), and i want to meet some peopls again. I don't finish work till 6, but i could probably bring guitar hero 2 on xbox 360 and maybe an xbox 360 (my flatmates). Oh, i could bring a TV if you need one, and my laptop with stuff on it, and anime dvds.

I prob could only stay to 12 though, as might have stuff to do on sunday morning.

By Pyro. 13/06/08, 09:30 am

Hm...
The fact you could only stay 'till twelve could be a hassle.
