Psychonauts 2?

I was reading the new Game Informer when I came across one of my all time favorite video game characters, Razputin "Raz" Aquato, of an amazing game from 2005. Psychonauts, despite being an awesome platformer and one of the funniest games I have ever played, did not do so well on the market. The problem was likely advertising as everyone who ever played it would tell you Psychonauts was the most unbelievable game they have ever played. While this game kicked so much patootie that it would make the Fable trilogy cry and run home to Lionhead, it also however ended up hurting Majesco and Double Fine, almost bankrupting Majesco.
But noticing the character in the magazine I thought it might be a hint as to something more. I thought perhaps they might actually make a new Psychonauts episode. So I Googled Psychonauts and decided to add a 2 on the end just for kicks. Astonished I found a blog posted something only four days ago regarding Psychonauts' Tim Schafer on the topic Psychonauts.(You can find the link here)  That can only mean that Psychonauts 2 may in fact be an upcoming title! Tim Schafer said he was ready to make Psychonauts 2. Straight from the big guy himself, it must be coming soon. I'll be first in line!
