Want an epic plot? What about incredible, well-developed characters? Maybe a mature, unforgettable storyline that rivals many of the best novels? Yeah, you won't find it here. What you will find is a non-linear FPS with lots of cussing, blood, and abuse (domestic or otherwise). Many, many easter eggs are hidden throughout the map, and the game encourages mucking around and exploring the world as much as it does continuing through the storyline. The humor is juvenile at best, but contributes much to the overall 'crapsack world' feel of the game. NPC AI is fairly buggy, but it makes the game all that much more humorous (unless if you're getting chased down by cops for standing in the wrong place). Postal 2 is also violent. Very violent. It's almost cartoonishly violent by today's standards. Realism is thrown out the window with the arsenal you're given, letting the inner maniac inside of you come out to play. That is, if you choose to. The game can be played and completed without killing anyone, but it is exceptionally hard. Postal 2 is what it is. It doesn't promise to be anything more, but what's there is pretty dang fun.
