Caught up yet, you laggard, or still Stewie-ing in your own juices?

Re: Psychonauts Countdown and Coverage
It's true. I'd stop, but the money's soooo good.
No Bat, still not caught up. Haven't even watched the DVDs yet, just part of the Making Of. Mostly been noodling around in that freelancer's limbo where you don't really have any work to do but just can't bring yourself to actually "play," so you end up pedantically fine-tuning old projects. (You did check out the fine modelling career of Reefy & Co., didn't you?)

Re: Psychonauts Countdown and Coverage
'Double Fine Productions has quietly issued new patches for Psychonauts, updating both the demo and the retail version of their new oddball third-person action adventure game to version 1.02. An updated full demo is also available, and this release implements camera improvements, enhanced error reporting, a fallback to software vertex processing, a better shutdown sequence, and a couple of bug fixes.'

Take that, Xbox!

Re: Psychonauts Countdown and Coverage
Funny, I haven't noticed any looping sound/looping sound/looping sowowownnnd... take that, Xbox!!
How's your image quality, Mr. green-tinted ordinary TV (vs. 1600x1200 w/FSAA, AF etc.)?
P.S. camera improvements.

Re: Psychonauts Countdown and Coverage
Actually, I haven't noticed any looping issues either. Severe dialogue catch-up issues, but I'm assuming that's an artifact of me olde Xbox, since no-one else's reported it. Nor have I had any camera control problems. So, in other words, Schafer is still god! Yes!

Re: Psychonauts Countdown and Coverage
Double fine action news sez
'Wednesday, May 26, 2005
The guys who do our fine Action Comics have been so good today, getting back on that comic horse, and riding it over to the comic trough, and letting it drink up cool, refreshing, comic water (And by all that I am metaphorically saying that they all put up comics today) I promised that I would also be well behaved and update the news. But I kind of forget how to do it. What, after all, is there to talk about?
Psychonauts is done. Did you hear about that? That's kind of news, right? The PS2 version just went gold, and that's a good thing. We were the number one entertainment product in Entertainment Weekly last week. Oh wait. I mentioned that last time.
Oh, they did a documentary about the last days of the Excellent Game Psychonauts on G4TV. Yes, and that's been up for a while and you knew about that so you might think that's not really news. But did you know this: they are RE-RUNNING IT?
Yes, the RE-Running of our Icons show is news, so enjoy. They are showing it again on June 5 at 8:30pm ET, 5:30pm PT. That fact and many other facts are lying in wait for you on this G4TV ICONS SHOW FACT PAGE!!!
Hopefully you're over reading that page now and I can sneak away using these dots here...'
