A nasty, crude adventure that cause the ignorant to squirm. The main concept isn't the combat or graphics. If you dive into the game without expecting anything, you will truly be rewarded with laughs and entertainment.

Sure this game isn't for everybody. Some people take gaming a little too seriously. This game is made to have fun with. You can do your errands ... or not. You can wait in line to buy your milk ... or kill all the people in line and the cashier and walk away with your $5. Its up to you. If you are looking for a deep, meaningful experience, move on. If you are looking for an entertaining few days worth of play, and endless replayability, go get it. I gave it a 9 as multiplayer would make this game a perfect game in my eyes. It cries out for a multiplayer. RWS has said a patch will be released, when is anybody's guess at this point.… Expand

Not as good as Duke Nukem, its more like the son of Sir Duke. One of the funniest games of all time.

Honestly, the first time you sit down to play Postal 2, you should take things with a grain of salt. Its gameplay is completely average -- but its sense of humor and irreverence is something unequaled. You get to fight Gary Coleman. You get to use cats as a machine gun silencer. You can urinate on people. Come on.

By now, Postal 2 is probably available in the bargain bin for $10. It9;s worth a shot.… Expand

It is a funny!! Yes it is "low brow", but it is still funny and off the wall. The main character's voice comments are great! Try it, and you will like it. (Load times are the only thing that keeps this from getting a 10..well that and no mulit-player action, but hell, they give you a map bulider..so I guess you can...play with yourself?)

It is a crazy game that has all elements that guys look for.

Running with Scissors has done the impossible, they have taken the Unreal engine and created a game that is visually dull and at times ugly. Voice acting is bad, dialogue is repetitive and uninteresting and the gameplay is sluggish. This game is cheesy and amateurish. Once the novelty of the well publisized and controversial content wares off you are left with a game that is for the most part forgetable.… Expand

When i played this for the first time, i was suspicious about it. I downloaded the patches from RWS-site and started playing. After i stopped playing, i watched the clock: jeez, i had played it over 8 hours! This game is so underestimated. It truly deserves 10/10 or 5/5.

Fun game! That's all what i need.

Awesome game.

Underrated, unadultered masterpiece! Running With Scissors title Postal 2 provides choice. You can play through without using any violence or be as violent as you want.

Definitely RWS's best game! Grab a copy off Steam, RWS said they will be offering updates for steam users. Well worth buying to support the Dev's of this classic.

If you're expecting a new Half-Life like FPS, you WILL be disappointed... if you know what this game is about, and are the kind of sick f*ck who wants to play it, you will absolutely LOVE it... (i did) it could've been more inovative tho, and did have the occasional problems... all in all, i give it a very strong 7/10.

It rocks . Fark CGW and GMR .

While not as interactive as I would have liked, Postal 2 is still a hell of a lot of fun. Guns, Crude humour, Cat Silencers and the like make for a very funny game. Yes, IGN lied their assholes off - The load times are NOT 2-3 minutes. What a tosser that Ivan Anushead is. Good : Physics, Pissing :), Humour Bad : Gore NOWHERE near as violent as I had inticipated. No leg and arm dismemberments with a shotgun??! Cmon, SOF 1 even had full body dismemberments - Lazy punks! Only so much you can do with the weapons, and after awhile the NPC's feel waaaay to fake. Wow, ANOTHER 'KICK ME' guy.. joy... Also had some NPC bumping problems, lol, they would get stuck running into eachother. … Expand

It's a great game. It (gameplay) will however wear off. I think though most will go back from time to time to "go postal" after a hard day's work. That's what this game is about. A release if you want. You don't have to kill anyone and why sometimes you just can't help yourself. I love the idea. Do simple chores and if you want "go postal". The game is just everday life with your wicked twist. The dialog will leave you speechless. Which by the way is a good thing. After you lay a couple of people to rest you may have a smart ass remark. It's a pull from Duke Nukem but done better. The "dude" is such a hardass that it reminds me of "Ash" on Army of Darkness. One tacky and unrelated "feature" to the game is the ablity to pee. Yep, you can pee on people. It's funny but get's old quick. The people react the same. Scream if your "thingie" is to close to them, or laugh if your afar. The technology in the game is okay. It's NOT a programming master peice on the tech side. It is however on the "senario/gameplay" side. There are a few bugs here and there but nothing annoying. You get stuck everyonce in a while but they programmed a way out. The game will actually see that your stuck and move you out. Cool feature. Graphics are not that great and for some reason they need a great system. It's more like the overhead of the Unreal 2 engine than the actual graphics used in the game. Which is a shame. I think the game could have been done in Quake3 engine with better results. However I am sure due to price the Unreal engine was the best choice *They are constantly in court with The US Postal Service for trademark infriengments. I think this game deserves a spot in history. The spot would be displayed in the United States Congress chamber. It would be taunting them and laughing while saying "You ban me, and I will go Postal on your ass" ----Dave … Expand

Postal 2 isn't so much a "game" as a series of potentially amusing and entertaining set pieces. Potential being the operative word, as the enjoyment will vary by the individual. PETA fanatics, career protesters and limpwristed pansies will no doubt be outraged and horrified (when are they not?). The majority of (male) gamers who aren't on some radical fringe and are also fairly well-adjusted will surely find something to like about Postal 2. Setting a cat ablaze in the mall, and then finding that it has caused a chaotic flaming domino effect in the food court was relatively inventive and a nice break from the mostly repetetive goings-on. Technically, it's a hastily cobbled together sandbox-like mess, but the potential is there should RWS choose to go for a third try. If they do, I hope they try much harder next time. It's certainly no CBFD (that one was, and still is, a 10), and RWS is obviously no RARE (who is?). But to say it has absolutely no merit is being biased.… Expand

A great game! Alot like GTA, do what you want, but with a few missions involved. Also very funny, and laid-back. If you fail a mission, its not the end of the game like some other games like this. If you fail a mission, which is hard to do, just shoot they guy who made you fail, simple!

It;s fun at times i know i spent hours and days playing it and having loads of fun,
its just one of your everyday games that are sued to have bad rating by moms who dont want thier kids playing video games/

A greatest game ever. Not for every people, and not for modern children, but very fun! The most original game ever made. It`s better than Duke Nukem, and more funny than Serious Sam. I love this game

I think this game is humorous, despite that there's a lot of repetive dialouge and some bugs, and that the game has not so much space to play in - i think it's great, altough the combat is "duck 2 seconds...come out and shot 1 time, then again duck 2 seconds" and the loading time is dreadful(for old computers, with new computers the loading time is 5 seconds) But i still ejoy the "functions" that this gamae has: Urinating, hitting with a shovel or electrucuteing with a tazer, setting a NPC on fire etc. (Im opposed to all that stuff in real life) Altough the cars seem as "usseles eploding props" it's still fun to set them on fire resulting in a chain reaction. The ingame AI is not so bad... I mean they do not point up or down with there guns when they shot vertically, they still have the functions such as: running away, kicking a dead body, talking with each other, engaging with static props (such as arcade games) etc. I give this game a 9 out of 10 since it's humorous, and to such a bad game for 2003.… Expand

i`m a little bit love this game because its like GTA to the First Person Shooters and it was funny game,but well its a controversy game because there are Osama Bin Laden on this game lol....

Funniest game ever! Everything here is perfect fun! The only problem I see in the game is the AI. The Nonplayable characters in this game act very strange. Other than that, you have an extremely fun game that will consume hours of your time.

Ah yes, Postal 2, where to begin... This game is a strange mix of Duke Nukem humor, open world gameplay, and has some of the most bizarre characters I have ever seen. You know a game has to be good with an arsenal ranging from shovels, to the mighty napalm launcher. The controversy behind it makes it all the more enticing of a game. I grade this one down mostly on a fairly short campaign, lack of multiplayer (look for the Share The Pain version for that,) some crashes and bugs, and not quite story-driven enough to be a non-linear game. However, these flaws do not make it a bad game. I doubt anyone, even I, would consider this a classic, and most likely, it never will be. Notwithstanding, however, it is still a fun and unique experience taken on other first person shooters of the time and of the day. I recommend giving it a try!… Expand

Technically? Bad. Voice acting? Awful. Story? Let's not even talk about it.

But this game is worth playing. It's controversial fun. Set people on fire, kick around their dead bodies before pissing on them. If you can't look past the technical issues, you're not playing this game the right way.

Es un juego entretenido, muy recomendable, desestresa muchísimo, se hace muy divertido jugarlo, creo que la nota de Metacritic, es muy baja este juego merece un minimo de 6, porque la idea es muy original y divertida.

While certainly the older I got, the more my tastes in video games became more refined, I honestly never changed my mind so much about this game, even after playing widely acclaimed games such as Portal 2, being introduced to the magnificent world of indie games development and understanding what a real good game is. Postal 2 might fail for matters such as the graphics or the cheesy in-game references to the authors of the game (I'm talking about the various cameos of Vince Desi and the totally random Mike J as the final boss of Apocalypse Weekend), or even the grotesque and trashy sense of humor that seems to be only half ironical and self aware, but... it's fun! And I find this aspect to be seriously underrated by both official reviews and user made ones. It is also not often mentioned and quite noteworthy how the expansion Apocalypse Weekend and modding (in particular a very big mod called AWP made by a certain Kamek) really bring the game to a whole new level of addictiveness and gore for those who are into it, but it's mostly there for the laughs and the sake of exaggeration, don't get too offended for that, of all the possible dumb people who thought at that time that lame "kill Bin Laden" jokes could be funny (and subsequently made flash games and poor parodies about it) and people who think self-insertions are a good idea, these guys were probably the best ones. The result is a good game with some minor **** stains. Hell, it has Gary Coleman and tazmanian cats as gun silencers! Also... piss? (Oh, and by the way the AIs in this game are actually better than plenty of stupidly made AIs from much more famous games such as Skyrim, not much of a point but still worth mentioning)… Expand

The game is like Quake 3 in graphics and if it came out two to 3 years ago that would be fine. It uses the Unreal 2 engine but not to great effect. Yes, it's graphic and its a bastard son of the GTA games except theres nothing to drive. People have said alot about the load times and yes it takes under 60 sec to load however sometimes you have to go through 6 or 7 zones in a mission and take away from the action. It's low brow and crude and some like that however the lack of humor other than immature and child like pee pee and cha cha jokes. Skins are ok but every woman has the same body and the damage system is very much lacking. Shoot someone in the leg or head the seem to take the same amount of damage. This game is for the crowd that either never gets it (you know what I mean) or hasn't had it in a long time. It's all tease but the tease is flawed by dated graphics, repetive load times and trying to rip off GTA games but with the class. Nothing is really funny other than RWS trying to be funny. Not a good game and theres other games that really need to be played. Like XXX BMX its all show no go.… Expand

Hey! This is a terrible game! It's like Conker's Bad Fur Day, except not funny and not fun. So basically, it's nothing like CBFD. The score you give this game is inversely porportional to your IQ. Idiots.

Postal 2, despite its novelty subject and characters, is just an average shooter. The main character (a trenchcoat wearing, trailer park resident) is extremely shallow and not particularly interesting. The game occurs over a five day period from Monday through Friday. Each day, the player is tasked with completing 3 or 4 simple errands, like retrieving an alternator for his car or picking up milk for his wife. The missions consist of "go there and get this" scenarios. That's the game in a nutshell. The game would be a complete waste of time, but it does have some redeeming value. I enjoyed exploring the game world, and I thought that the weapon selection was interesting. Also, pissing on someone and watching them vomit or feeding dog biscuits to a pitbull, and then sicing it on your enemies never get old. Even with these novel ideas, I had to force myself to finish the game. The ending was lackluster and disappointing. Graphics and sound were good. After beating the game, I was encouraged to play through the game again at a harder level, but I declined and uninstalled. Replaying this game definately did not interest me.… Expand

Postal 2, it's like a joke that starts off funny, but then you hear it so many times and you just want it to fry! That's exactly what the relationship between the first two were. What's the difference? It never was funny to start off with. That's how terrible Postal 2 is...

Postal 2... can't be explained, must be experienced. The self-irony RWS put into this is amazing. This game is so bad that it becomes absolutely hilarious to play. A really fun game. Cant really be compared to any other game. Its a game in its own rights.

I highly doubt this game really is as offensive as it was made out to be. It's only that games rarely are expressive beyond social protocol. If not ,excessive violence, mild sex and language is used. This is the only game to really express humour as is with no apology and I am thankful for it. Mostly because more games should take more risk in being an art form and not a generic, This doesn't mean that all games have to be ridiculous. However there has been few games that have been made regardless of who will like it.

Thank you for postal 2.… Expand

The Steam description says you can play peacefully or violently. That's plain wrong. The purpose of this game is to kill everything including innocent people with no motive. This game is too racist, disgusting and crude for most people to enjoy it. The Postal series is the poster child for the video game violence debate for a reason. 10 years after it's release, it's not a worthy use of your hard earned money.… Expand
