POSTAL 3[views:4251][posts:23]____________________________________ [Oct 28,2011 2:37pm - Alx_Casket ""] PC Release dates just announced: November 3, 2011 in Russia December 10, 2011 in Germany PS3 and XBOX360 release dates TBA in 2012 Plot In Postal III, The Postal Dude emigrates to Paradise's sister town of Catharsis as he previously blew up Paradise with a nuclear bomb. Due to the economic meltdown, the Dude drives into town and becomes stranded by the fact he can not even afford a tank of gas. He then must find work and do various odd jobs to escape the town. Through the course of the game the player can chose one of two paths, the "bad path" which includes joining in on the schemes of Mayor Chomo and Uncle Dave, or the "good path" which involves the Dude joining the Catharsis Police force. The game will take place in a fairly linear and cinematic way, although the players actions will affect the outcome of the story and the game. Although the "good path" will be more difficult to play, it will offer more story line and a longer campaign. Development Unlike its predecessor, Postal III will not be based on the Unreal engine but rather on the Source engine. Also, Postal III will be a third-person shooter, in contrast to the earlier entries in the series (Postal 2 being a first-person shooter and Postal being an isometric 2D game). Early gameplay footage of Postal III being played at E3 2008 reveals new weapons such as "The Badgersaw", a nail bat, a M60 machine gun and the return of the gas can and matches from Postal 2. A new weapon concept is a test lab monkey which will react to a laser being pointed by the Postal Dude. Product manager Mike Jaret revealed in an interview that there will be "special vehicles" in the game such as Segways. Postal III was developed under the working title Postal 3: Catharsis until October 18, 2006, when the finalized title was revealed to be Postal III. psyched! |

| ____________________________________ [Oct 28,2011 4:24pm - arilliusbm ""] Classic: Game that made waves when released , whether it be by story, shock value, graphics, game engine, replay value, etc. Postal 1 was a daring game when it came out. |
| ____________________________________________________ [Oct 28,2011 5:00pm - menstrual_sweatpants_disco ""] I downloaded Postal 2 a while back. Got bored a few hours into it and gave up. |
| ____________________________________ [Oct 28,2011 5:01pm - Alx_Casket ""] I see a pattern with how this and the recent gta thread are developing. Take the new news and make it old! |

| ___________________________________ [Jan 3,2012 12:24pm - Fake Ark ""] http://pc.gamespy.com/pc/postal-3/1215582p1.html "Good luck not hurting them in this AI clusterf***," said the intro text. "Hahahaha!" it adds, driving home that Running With Scissors is not only aware of how bad its game is, but thinks it's funny that we would pay for it and play it. So then, I'm forced to ask: Can a game be so hair-pullingly, gut-wrenchingly, face-palmingly bad it's good? NO A thousand times no. It looks, sounds, and performs like a bad Source engine mod, and it is without a doubt one of the most broken games I've ever played. It crashes constantly, features enemies so dumb I feel dumber having fought them, and rewards the painstaking effort of completing its obnoxious, repetitive objectives with pain roughly equivalent to a stake in the eye. Self aware or not, this is a bad game. LOL |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 3,2012 12:25pm - arilliusbm ""] Two words: First game. |
| ____________________________________ [May 22,2012 6:39pm - Alx_Casket ""] Just started chargin ma downloads, hope it doesn't suck as much as the internets say it does now that the game's been patched. |
| _____________________________________ [Jul 21,2012 10:16am - Alx_Casket ""] Played the game last night. Humor was irritatingly spoonfed to the player in a juggaloistic manner, graphics made the Source engine look weak, and I cannot underscore how shitty the controls are (even with the latest patch). Can't even complete the mission of catching HIV-infected cats, it's really breaking my heart. |

| _____________________________________ [Jul 21,2012 2:40pm - trioxin_245 ""] old news |
| ____________________________________ [Jul 21,2012 2:43pm - arilliusbm ""] Postal 1, along with GTA1 pushed the limits of violence and senseless killing in games. They still stand as some of the most important games in history from that standard. BAN THEM. THEY CAUSE TRAGIC THEATER MURDERS |
