Man there are so many different memorable moments from postal 2, and even the original postal wich took me some time to find the uncut version, for 30 bucks from canada.... but getting back to the point, postal was one of the games i felt that im apart of, there are no rules , no limits to what you can do or cant, and just not giving fuck what other think about it. Many people bashed the game for its content and dark humor, but they missed on one of the most important factors .... that its a game made for a specific purpose, to make people laugh and have a good time going, as they say "postal". As a person that knows violence, sex, racism, stereotyping etc. its just part of human life, and games have the right to express them also in their own way. And thats what i loved in postal, that all the things we see in life, can happen in a game, where an normal even, can surprisingly change in an instant, where you can explore the depth of the in games environment in a totally different ways. the game had a character totally different then any other game out there by the time, instead of some super hero trying to save the planet, you get to play as a drunk, pot smoking, white trash guy, named postal dude, where normal day to day, experiences can turn upside down. in those moments I just loved how you could of do so many different things to change the outcome, such as the bank robbery, will you go kill the robbers, or kill the cops and help them rob the bank? or you might just flee the scene like a little pussy, or you will just stay down and see what happens next. Will you stay in line for Gary's autograph or you will cut people , who are trying to give you the bird. and of course you can just take your fucking shotgun, do some catnip, and blow every bodies brains out, while all the chunks and sound goes to slow motion. Weapons , yes the weapons are one of their kind, who before seen a shovel that could be used to cut peoples heads off? who could get a normal tank of gasoline and pour in down on bystanders and lit them on fire? not many other games had the balls to do that.
This is why postal is an excellent game of all time, it took one more step then others , and achieved the impossible.
don't want it to become some 5 page essay heh, so thats what i think of the game, i played the multiplayer for years and that part kept the community and the fan base going, and im looking forward to the next installment of postal 3, and the expension of the multiplayer in the future, good luck RWS.
