POSTAL 2

Reminds me of middle school, made me laugh endlessly back then, and it still does. My advice, speed through the game, unlock enhanced mode, and then stick with it forever. Also, machete is the secret.

Maybe you need nostalgia to enjoy this but I have never played it before and found it to be poor. Main character is annoying and the humour is not for me, I doubt even 12 year old me would have enjoyed it. Performance was a bit weird, I had to use my gpu software to limit the frames as it was making the fans kick in trying to get as much fps as possible which I found uneccesary for a game like this. Conversely when I found a can of benzine and used it to set a fire the fps went down the swanny, about 20fps until the fire stopped or I was far enough away. At least it was only £0.89.

Could you sign my petition ?

Sure, the game is pretty crappy gameplay-wise. The controls often feel stiff, some of the enemies are bullet sponges with pinpoint accuracy, and the shootouts are poorly designed. But who cares when you can impale a cat on your shotgun and pee on the mutilated bodies of innocent civilians?! Postal 2 may not be the greatest FPS experience out there, but the fact that it is so edgy, stupid and over-the-top definitely makes it enjoyable. Paradise City is densely packed with things to see and places to explore, often involving heavy weaponry and money lying on the floor, annoying people to slaughter and various forms of toilet humor. Meaningless violence and political incorrectness are pretty much the selling points of the game, and, since there is no way you could take its tongue-in-cheek tone seriously, I'm totally okay with that. Shooting your way through entire districts and using a great variety of more-ore-less satisfying weapons (including a shovel, a double-barrelled shotgun, a chainsaw, Molotovs, shears, heat-seeking missiles and anthrax-filled cow heads) to complete silly objectives is great fun. Plus, the game has, dare I say, an interesting sense of satire. It takes shots at various communities, mocks the Church, the American electoral system and generally totally disregards political correctness... But it's mostly in good humor. It also underlines a fundamental principle of video games: sure, you could play it without killing anyone, but since there's weapons everywhere, why would you even bother? I was yet quite disappointed by the Apocalypse Weekend expansion, which consists in a series of missions closer to what you would expect from a classic FPS. But while the half-baked gameplay works well for the sandbox-typed campaign of the first five days, it is definitely not strong enough to sustain a full-fledged regular FPS campaign. I would not recommend this game to solid shooter fans, but if you just want a cathartic FPS, this gets the job done.
