johnnyEloquent: "Don't bet against yourself, you risk winning."
Hope this isn't a doublepost

Comedy Returns to Video Games?
I've been searching for a funny computer game to give my father for christmas, after last years gift of
Grim Fandango went over brilliantly. Unfortunately, it seems that in games as in any media
dying is easy, comedy is hard.
With the upcoming release of their first game,
Psychonauts, Double Fine productions, hopes to resurrect the art. How do I know it's going to be hilarious? The company is headed up by headed up by
Tim Schafer of Grim Fandango, Monkey Island and Day of the Tentacle fame. Oh, and
they're all utterly insane
And lest anyone accuse me of corporate shilling, check out
the scummVM and FreeSCI projects which allow you to play classic LucasArts and Sierra comedy adventures on your linux, mac or palm computers. Don't forget to tip your waitress.
