I am one sick b*******! (Postal 2)

Post by RyaNtheSlayA »

"As for the SRV itself, perhaps it would be best to give a typical example of what Postal Dude can do if the whim strikes him. Let's say some poor soul has the misfortune to cross Postal Dudes path when hes not in a particularly good mood (which, it must be admitted, is often). Postal Dude starts by tazering the unfortunate, causing him to shake violently. While still in the throes of electric shock, Postal Dude pulls out a pistol and shoots the fellow in the leg, which naturally causes him to fall down. Whimpering and crying, the victim tries to crawl away from the scene. Always ready to demonstrate his considerable cooking skills, Postal Dude then proceeds to pour gasoline on the prone citizen. He lights a match, lets the guy take a good look at it, then tosses it, with predictable flammatory results. Deciding that the blaze may attract too much attention, he unzips and proceeds to urinate on Mr. Toasty. While this eventually puts out the fire, our friend is now covered in burns, and can do little other than curl up into a fetal position. Deciding hes had enough, Postal Dude brings out a shovel and decapitates the crispy mess, then proceeds to kick the head down the nearest alley. At this point, another citizen strolls up, notices Postal Dudes handiwork, and starts vomiting, which may have the unfortunate result of piquing Postal Dudes interest in a little violence once again."

I couldnt stop laughing reading this and I went out and bought the game and am having a complete blast laughing my way killing innocent bystanders and in some cases, sneaking up and pissing on them for shits and giggles. Ive always liked mindless games that just let me blow stuff up (gta2, Mercs2, gta:sa) but this takes it to a whole new level! There is something seriously wrong w/ anybody liking this game like I do...

Postal 2 is fucking hilarious, some of my favourite moments;

Burning Osama Bin Laden
Blowing up Gary Coleman
Pissing on a priest through a confesional booth before setting him on fire

In fact, I think I spent most of the game pissing on people and setting them on fire :lol: Also, it's awesome that you can collect neighbourhood cats and use them as silencers for your shotgun :lol:

Anyways, i'm really looking forward to Postal III, which should be out this year and is coming to consoles for the first time. It's changed from 1st to 3rd person, but hopefully it'll still remain as fun (and as sick).

The original Postal was a 3rd person isometric game. So going back to 3rd person is a return to form. It'll be better to be able to watch your character interact with the world anyway.

As the reviewer said, the catnip is edible, and the results are priceless. :lol:

The Fudge Pack DVD gets you;

Postal
Postal 2
Postal 2 - Apocalypse Weekend (expansion)
Eternal Damnation (Fan made total-conversion, turns Postal into a Zombie game)
Week in Paradise (Fan made mod that adds the Apocalypse Weekend weapons into the main game)

Alternatively, you can buy the games as digital downloads from the Postal site;

Fun for a short time, but multiplayer is poor. Sniping with a shotgun is silly.
