Title: Postal on sale at GOG.com, Postal 2 coming soon
Post by: W7RE on Friday, April 17, 2009, 12:21:51 PM
Postal for $5.99 this weekend (http://www.gog.com/en/gamecard/postal_classic_and_uncut)

Postal 2 coming soon for $9.99 (http://www.gog.com/en/gamecard/postal_2_complete). Includes Postal 2, Share the Pain multiplayer expansion, and Apocalypse Weekend Expansion.



I might get Postal 2. The game overall felt unpolished and buggy, but damn it was fun!

Good to know for the future -- especially if GOG does one of their weekend sales and you save a few bucks.

Postal 2 was one of the most idiotic and even downright stupid games I ever played, but I have to say... it was fun.  I actually finished it.  Not exactly what you'd call a great game, but it did have its moments and people were overly down on it just because it was the politically correct thing to do.  The moment you spontaneously play kickball with a random pedestrian using somebody else's head you just can't help but smile.

Pointless fun, basically?

It was a wacky game. A relic from the old school of sadistic and violent humour. I don't get why some people got so flustered over it, I've seen worse and more offensive films that were accepted by the public eye.

I still think Postal 1 was the better game overall but Postal 2 had a lot of fun moments. Running around the town urinating on people then watching them freak out and puke always got a laugh out of me, especially when one pukes on another NPC and causes them to share the moment of sickness and puke too! Yeah, it really was retarded. Sometimes I'd just kick a dude and provoke him, get him all pissed off enough to pull out a gun, then I'd let him chase me to a cop and watch him get pummeled by the authorities. Ah, insane fun.

D, I am sure that you've asked Que the same question about Postal 2 on at least two other occasions. :P Or maybe I am wrong. :P

Postal 2 didn't get enough credit, people just didn't understand the game. Yes, you could go around killing people for no reason, but the game was really about exploring. There were so many little details and secret areas that you really can't find them all.

One of my favorite things to do was put a donut on the ground, piss on it and watch a cop come eat it and start puking.
