I think you'd be hard-pressed to argue that Psychonauts is an adventure game. It definately more comfortably fits into the Platformer genre (with action/adventure and minor RPG elements). Even though it has an interesting story and puzzles, it isn't necessarily an adventure game.

That being said, Psychonauts is an excellent game and I very thoroughly enjoyed it. It is quite possibly one of the best platformers I've ever played (though my experience isn't extensive).
