I LOVE Postal 2 ... I think it is brilliant.

I can't wait for Postal 3 -- although it has swapped from FPS to third person.

I had all the dizzy games. My fave was probably Treasure Island Dizzy. Happy days

I did buy 7th guest and Return to Zork for the PC. Does that count as an embarassing mistake?

There is no reason to feel guilty for liking Postal2.

sorry thats my bad, i didnt mean for it to seem i thought postal was bad, far from it, i had just come across something in my magazine saying postal 3 is released soon and got a little bit excited, altho im thinking surely sony are goin to 'tone' it down due to all the rubbish surrounding games like gta and manhunt, fingers crossed its as good if not more twisted than the previous

In Postal2 you can napalm a marching band, hunt elephants with a bazooka, and hit people with a stun gun until they wet themselves. Difficult to see how Postal3 could be more tasteless, but I hope it is. But 3rd person sounds bad to me.

what about the anthrax cow head will it all be played in 3rd person, i havent seen any info, just a release date, but 3rd person brings bad memories , prime example is duke nukem, i swear they ccut down on the adult content and went 3rd person when they brought it over to consoles

If you get Apocalypse Weekend and Seven Days in Paradise you get lots more weapons that do all kinds of destruction.

Chopping off the head and kicking it across the screen was a nice touch.
