I have a lot to say about Postal II here - I don't know whether must I say Postal 2 (and its expansion pack, Apocalypse Weekend) rocks or not - it is something that I have to split my opinions into two!

I can't really see any "very good" points inside the game - because everything in the game is intended to be parodized, from the passerbys, to the protest groups, and anything else. Still, it's a game laced with dark humour. Some of them liked it very much, and some of them hated them very much. However, I'm in the middle ground here.

Besides that, the whole game is amusing because not only of the 'dark humour', but its poor scripting and bug-ridden engine inside the game. Some of the bugs caused me to laugh uncontrolably. Besides that, there are many inconsistencies in the game, mainly because of the "citizen script" template that is all over every each people. For example, you can see the anti-video game protestors playing arcade games in the shopping mall. (not sure whether the programmers actually INTENDed that) Or the policemen and policewomen doing the same thing there.

I'm not pretty sure whether I must explain the part which in the "Terrorist Camp" in Apocalypse Weekend - I guess the guys in RWS has seriously confused the regions in Asia when I found a barbeque table in the camp (that's irony - a terrorist camp with recreation inside!) with a radio blaring music similar to that of Ravi Shankar.

Worst of all, the underground facility has a BAR (what else do they dispense there!) inside, with posters of Postal babes and there IS a snooker table there!!

For the script problems, it doesn't hinder the game too much but it is surely amusing to see them sometimes.

THat game is in 3rd person perspective, and released somewhere in 2009 with using the Source Engine for HL2.

I wish I could have seen it being released this year. Too bad they have toned down the "meaty bits" thing as seen in the Apocalypse Weekend.

I tried a little bit of Postal 1 - looks senseless. But people who loves dark humour certainly enjoy this one.

Too bad Postal 3 will only be released in 2009. What a long wait...
