Thanks and I will check out reviews etc for the games you suggested.

I've replied like 5 times and it always results in a website error.

The forums is can be buggy sometimes.

It's just now, during the holidays. The forum usually runs much smoother. And don't forget to buy Sacrifice.

A third person adventure game of sorts. You take pictures of animals to make money while trying to solve a giant conspiracy. It sounds weird but it's really really awesome! A must play imo!

That does sound weird. :P The screenshots look really nice for a ten-year old game and you have me intrigued. Hmm.

An action adventure that blends different types of gameplay. You run, jump and fight (boss battles includes), but there are also boat races, stealth missions, minigames and the photography aspect as mentioned by Giltonnam. It's not the main gameplay but a cool diversion and an original way to make money in the game that you can spend on equipment and upgrading your gear (kind of like collectables, but fitting the heroine's background and useful within the game).

The story is okay but a bit simple, and a few characters are kind of clichéd, but the heroine is sympathethic and the graphics are beautiful, IMO, and the soundtrack isn't too bad either. It's not as original as Psychonauts but still lots of fun because of the varied gameplay.

There are so many good games here, and just to name a few: Trine, Giana Sisters, Machinarium, the Deponia games, the Blackwell games, Gemini Rue, Resonance, Tales Of Monkey Island, the The Witcher games... and many more gems, and most of them on sale right now ^_^

So you'd recommend picking up Psychonauts over Beyond Good and Evil, or both?

I've mainly played RPGs with the odd dabble into something else, so I'm looking to broaden my horizons and discover other things I might enjoy. :)

Well, I can't decide that in your stead, I don't know you and can't judge whether you'd enjoy these games and if so which one you'd enjoy more. :)

I think Psychonauts is the more original and outstanding, but it's not without flaws. Even though I had a great time playing through it, there were at least three or four situations that were really frustrating (partly because of the controls) and where it took me forever to get through them, and I still haven't beat the final level. But I loved the game so much despite it, that I kept on trying until I succeeded, and I was always rewarded for the perseverance.

I haven't fully played through Beyond Good and Evil, but it might be a bit easier to handle. Not saying that Psychonauts is hard - it's actually rather easy most of the time - but the difficulty curve is a bit weird.

That being said, I can recommend both, but I can't guarantee that everyone will like them as much as I do, especially if you've never played any other games like it - you might end up loving them but you might just as well find out that this genre is not your cup of tea. If you need to choose between the two, I'd say Psychonauts is more of a must-play than BG&E because it's so hilarious, while BG&E might have a more consistent difficulty curve and won't surprise you as much as Psychonauts (in both good and bad ways). Both are cool and orignal in their own way though.
