15 Reasons Why Psychonauts Is The Greatest Game Ever Made

9. The Environments Are Beautiful

Considering the fact that Psychonauts is over 10 years old, it still looks and plays fantastically. This is due, in part, to the art style of the game which employs exaggeratedly cartoonish designs that lend themselves perfectly to timelessness. By avoiding any semblance of realism, Psychonauts has managed to age splendidly, looking as beautiful today as it ever did; unlike other games from the early 2000s, like Fahrenheit/Indigo Prophecy which have been rendered psychically impossible to look at directly. To this day, Psychonauts is pretty breathtakingly beautiful; the environments are colourful and vibrant, and the unique look of the game means that it€™ll look just as good in 10 years€™ time, or even 50.
