I can confirm that Psychonauts plays pretty terribly on a keyboard. It's a 3D platformer, and using arrow keys over a control stick means you don't have fine control over your movements, which means jumping around is difficult and awkward, and you have to do a lot of that. It also makes it difficult to aim your mental blasts while moving, although I don't remember exactly why. I think it's because you have fine control over the camera, but not over your character.
I tried playing the PC version and barely managed to struggle through the fight with the giant Censor on the surface of the cube in Sasha's mind, which was easy for me when I played it on Xbox, but an absolute nightmare when I had to walk across corners with four directional keys while the gravity kept changing.
And then I lost my save file and had to do the fight over, which is when I quit.
Anyway, get a USB controller.
