    Ponies the worst fanbase ever...
    people are really this mental to rate a game 0 just because its from MS ...
    the game on ps and its run good...
    at least they didn't cancel the version...
    if its sony...there will be no Xbox Version...

    the game is great and fantastic dont believe the ponies and their mental problems..

    El mejor juego de plataformas que he jugado este año, divertido y con muy buena historia, escenarios muy creativos y mecánicas que hacen que no se sienta repetitivo.

    This game terrible old technology looks like a Xbox 360 game. Very boring and cringe. Don’t not buy unless you have gamepass.

    Enjoyable, but not original at all. I love the game, but it doesn't adds many things to the mechanics of the first game.

    This is an excellent adventure platformer with a fantastic story. The art style is inventive and lush, and it runs at a constant 4k and 60fps. The animations are very detailed and smooth, and the game oozes with polish. The voice acting and writing is fantastic. The pacing is very good. The level design deserves a ton of the credit, as the developers did an amazing job mashing 2 disparateThis is an excellent adventure platformer with a fantastic story.

Even if you don't like platformers, I'd wager that you would find a lot to enjoy in Psychonauts 2 just because it's a game that is extremely high quality in what it's doing. Highly recommended. If you love video games, you will love this.… Expand

    Me parece un juegazo de 10, un estilo artistico bastante bueno, graficos no de ultima generación, pero son bastante bueno y va en conjunto al estilo artistico. Para se un AA es para mi un GOTY.

    This game isn't a 10 or not sure yet because I haven't finish it yet but so far it's not a 0 at all it sucks to see the game getting 0s because there is no Russian language!? And a 0 just because? A 0 is an unplayable game, with so many bugs you can't even advance, not a game you don't like just because xbox makes it

    Gran juego con un arte y estilo peculiar, Tim Schafer vuelve a lo grande con esta gran aventura llena de retos, humor negro y diversión a raudales. Estamos ante uno de los grandes tapados del año y que no hace más que darle la razón a Microsoft con el acierto de comprar Double Fine.

    Se esse game fosse lançado a 15 anos atrás até que seria algo bom mas fazer uma coisa desse em consoles atuais ta de brincadeira né! Depois de jogar por 2 horas seguidas larguei esse lixo, não vou me submeter a horas de um jogo com mecânicas de jogo obsoleta e uma histórinha meia boca, mas pra quem gosta de loxo boa jogatina.

    Best 3D platformer since Mario Galaxy 2. Standouts: incredible art direction, improved gameplay mechanics compared to the first title.

    Sad to see the review bombing from Playstation fanboys that are just upset the game doesn't have a native PS5 version.

    Psychonauts 2 is 100% a GOTY contender, I've played 8 hours so far and every level is very creative, unique, introduces new mechanics and is just a lot of fun. The characters are endearing and funny, its well written and smart.

    Giving a whole game a 0 because they don't speak Russian is literally the same as hating the entire planet because everyone doesn't speak Russian yet. Excuse me for being a hypocritical English speaker, but you know the planet isn't obliged to serve you specifically, right? Like... just because you heard of something doesn't mean it must automatically be catered to you.

Complaining about lack of dubs is some serious weeb ish.

    This game was made in the U.S.
    It only has one language; The dominant language in the U.S. (and the world)
    Plenty of MAJOR games don't have alternate languages, yet an independent studio must be held to higher standards?

    To phrase it as RUSSIAN being the only language requirement to raise the rating means you don't even care about other languages;
    What about Mandarin, Hindi, Spanish, French, Arabic, and Bengali? These languages are all more popular than Russian. Why are specifically Russians bombing this review?

    Also, nobody cares about your console war. Please mature past middle school.    … Expand

    Шикарный платформер с отличным визуалом и взрослым сюжетом. Пример того, как даже спустя 16 лет сиквелы актуальны и имеют право на внимание.

    Psychonauts 2 is a superb sequel that appeals to both long-time fans and newcomers. With a engaging story full of twists and turns, excellent witty dialogue, and a gorgeous visual palette, exploring people's minds has never been so fun and thrilling.

    Psychonauts 2 managed to restore my faith in the genre of 3D platformers. This is a creative volcano spewing ideas left and right - it can make you laugh, it can make you cry, it can make you think. And it will definitely make you have fun.

    Psychonauts 1 is the perfect example of the term cult classic, and Psychonauts 2 has created another masterpiece that I am only assuming won’t receive the attention it deserves. They have perfected and expanded on their original idea in every way and created a world full of heart and fun. It’s been well documented that the last few years it took to bake were used to expand the boss battles, and finely polish the areas that were complete. It’s clear that the added funds from being a Microsoft studio were put to good use and the team at Double Fine should be very proud of what they have created. I cannot wait to see what they create next.
