You don't really think about how much Double Fine cult classic platformer Psychonauts has in common with this year's summer blockbuster film Inception -- or at least, I hadn't -- until someone on YouTube goes ahead and blends the two together. Enter Inceptionauts.

This mash-up of the music, dialogue, and sound from one of Inception's expertly-crafted trailers with the visuals from Psychonauts is incredible and highlights some surprising similarities between the two that you may not have considered. Check out the trailer below from YouTube user FineLeatherJackets.

It's almost scary how alike the two are when you think about.

Was Inception copying Psychonauts...

Or was Pyschonauts...

PREDICTING THE FUTURE!?!?

Psychonauts one of the few games that deserve a sequel.

Heard about this from a Tim Schaffer tweet earlier today. Wondered when someone was going to do this because its a perfect match. I really want to replay it now...

This video almost made my eyes melt from my sockets from such awesomeness, like when I first put on HD sunglasses. Still haven't recovered from those. It was worth it.

That was even better than the Toy Story 3 mash-up, and the lamp scene at the end was great. Makes me really wanna play Psychonauts, too.
