Psychonauts Grabbed by Steam

Has Steam gone amok?

Steam is on a game grabbing frenzy. After yesterday's announcement that RoboBlitz will be made available through the Steam platform, we see today that another game will make its way into gamers' houses through the Steam system.

Best screenplay BAFTA winner, Phychonauts will be available through Steam starting with October. Majesco,
the games' publisher, signed a distribution contract with Steam and gamers will be able to download Psychonauts through the Steam platform for US$ 19.95.

Pshyconauts joins his teammates Advent Rising, Blood Rayne and Blood Rayne 2, who are also available on Steam. Will all the game published by Majestico be available through Steam? It's becoming a habit. Seems like a move made to rescue Pshyconauts because the game already started disappearing from game store shelves.

Psychonauts was originally released in 2005 on PC, Xbox, PlayStation 2 and a release for Xbox 360 which never came was promised. The game has a huge fanbase worldwide as well as critical praises.

Psychonauts players are embodied by a young circus performer, and they have to save a bunch of nerds from a summer camp for psychics from a lunatic that wants to steal their brains in order to absorb their psychic powers.
