Oh my God this game is a load of crap! I was expecting a nostalgic look into '90s first person shooters and i knew this didn't get very good reviews back in the day but...... jeez it's just really baaaaad!

I had no idea you were a goat Marko.

Relieved to hear it's not a sequel to the Uwe Boll movie...

Do you have any screenies of Postal II?

Well, the film was based upon the game, so it kinda is a sequel of sorts. And so you can imagine the quality!! Screens won't do it justice, so here's a video:

I thought the game was hilarious. How can you not like being able to kick the roof and pee on stuff?

Well, it's not those kind of ideas i dislike, the problem is they aren't implimented very well. The engine is pretty slow and has numerous and often saving/loading points, breaking up the gameplay and slowing the pace.. almost until it's no fun anymore. In fact the whole game just plays too slow paced for my liking.

The shooting and melee elements are a little dull and slow too. An example is swinging the police baton - for something so lightweight and versatile i should be able to bludgeon protestors with it, whereas the game only lets me swing once every 1-2 seconds.

I will keep playing and see if it gets better...

That petition thing don't look very fun.

I also get serious Counter-Strike vibes of the design and some of the gameplay.

And the doorkick flashes me back to the glorius days of Duke Nukem 3D.

Postal 2 is one of my all time favourite games! It's hilarious, and the engine was pretty good for 2002.

Example:
Librarian: This book is overdue. That'll be forty dollars.
Postal Dude: F**K YOU!! *kills*

The v.1337 patch speeds up the loading times immensely.

Although I also thought the movie was entertaining.
