[IMG]http://img831.imageshack.us/img831/3690/postald.jpg[/IMG] Postal is a game series created by a team called [I]Running With Scissors[/I]. [U][I][B]In The Beginning... [IMG]http://www.ilmac.net/immagini/recensioni/giochi/postal/1.jpg[/IMG] [/B][/I][/U]The first postal game was released in 1997 for Macintosh and Windows. [I]Ahem[/I] [B][I]You've just gone off the deep end, and in your deeply demented mind, you've decided that this little peaceful town no longer needs peace and quiet. You gather your arsenal as you plan your next move... "Postal" is best described as a three-quarter view isometric shooter with a disturbing theme. Instead of shooting at demons, monsters, bad guys and terrorists, your targets are typical citizens like a high school marching band, ordinary pedestrians, and even Santa Claus! You are provided with an arsenal of diverse weapons to choose from, ranging from good old fashioned guns to flame throwers.[/I][/B] Doesn't that soung just lovely? In reality, the game was just mediorce a top down shooter. The postal theme helped it get attention from angry mothers.

[U][I][B]But Then Came THIS.... [/B][/I][/U][IMG]http://i1-news.softpedia-static.com/images/extra/large/postal2pc_001-large.jpg[/IMG] [I]Oh now we are talkin'! [/I]Postal 2 differs from it's older brother in many ways. The main is that you now see the game in first person view, through the eyes of your character, the biggest badass jackass to ever walk the town of Paradise. [I]The Postal Dude. [IMG]http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/733/postaliiiwgr11.jpg[/IMG] [/I]Look at him in awe and lust, simple peasents! He'll walk into your house and piss on you because he [I]Fucking Can![/I] Another big difference is that you [I]Don't[/I] have to kill anyone. That's right, you can go through the entire game without harming a soul (Besides your father's) And what tasks do you undertake in this mighty game? Save the princess? Defeat the dragon? Find the lost temple? NO! You buy mother fuckin' milk! That's right baby! The game gives you very simple tasks. These taks don't require any blood shed. Though doing such a task is hard on any thing above the [I]"Easy"[/I] difficulty setting. Oh, and the town of paradise has people living it it (duh you n00b) These people walk about, have houses and friends. With whom they beat with a shovel. Yeah, everyone hates everyone in this town. Oh look at men rambling! I haven't even touched the subject of weapons! You have shovels, tasers, guns, shotguns, machineguns, snipers, cats, cow heads, RPGs, your foot and your own piss. Yes that's right, your own body fluids! And what better way than to use these fine weapons, than on your friends? That's right folks, this game has multiplayer. Though not many people play it.

[/B][/I][/U][IMG]http://winstation.ru/uploads/posts/2009-05/1242237964_pic_id286194.jpeg[/IMG] Apocolypse weekend is an expansion/sequel for Postal 2. The game deviates from the workings of the last game, and pretty much forces you to use your weapon. It was pretty ok, and champ was in it. But still, not too good.

This image should fill you in on the quality of the game. It's actually pretty fun. Who'da' thunk' it? Unlike the rest of postal games, this one is free! Want to know where to get it?

I can't be arsed writing anything for them, so I'll provide links for the two big ones. Please note there is most likely more. Just check the Postal game website.

[/B][/I][/U]Postal III, or 3. It's going to be done when it's done. The dev's say. This game is coming to xbox and PS3 besides the PC (The last three releases were PC only). It has recently been [URL="http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2010/08/18/new-footage-little-controversy/"]seen again[/URL], with some new footage. There is no pinned release date from what I know. The game is also being made on the valve engine. That is all I know for this time. Also Badger as chainsaw. Videos.

[/B]Why the [URL="http://store03.prostores.com/servlet/runningwithscissors/StoreFront"]Store [/URL]ofcourse! You could maybe find this on Ebay or Amazon, but don't get your hopes up. I own the "Postal Fudge Pack" which has all the games, plus two mods for it! Though I don't think they make it anymore. And now I leave you with a thought to ponder. Would the Postal dude do it? Mother fucking yes he would!
I bet Postal 3 will be shit and it doesn't look fun at all.

Ha, "Postal 3 will be released in '09." They are a bit late, aren't they?
