One too many hits off the pipe. One too many shootouts ending in carnage. And there we go - brain damage. That's the only explanation for what's happening to The POSTAL Dude. All of a sudden, he's in an asylum full of freaks. The Big Bad Nurse has been handing out some really funky meds, turning the patients and the orderlies into lewd, blood-thirsty maniacs. Is this some crazy nightmare, or is it the twisted reality?

    Become the Dude and shoot your way out of the loony bin.

    POSTAL: Brain Damaged is a spin-off taking the most outrageous FPS series of all time into a different, skill-based, retro-shooter direction. Say goodbye to an open-world sandbox. Prepare for old-school, stage-based FPS action and cheesy one-liners!    … Expand

    Postal Brain Damaged is a bomb! Fun, fast, ferocious and punishing. A Postal spinoff that breathes new life into a franchise that seemed to have lost all ideas.

    A fantastic throwback FPS with wonderful levels, awesome weapons, and top-notch gameplay, Postal: Brain Damaged is held back by bugs and balance issues that can't ultimately tarnish this worthy game.

    On the one hand I know a couple of better shooters that throw pixels the size of a bouillon cubes at you. On the other hand I had tons of fun with Brain Damaged thanks to its fast, challenging gameplay and tons of pop culture references. Plus, if I ever decide to put together a list of the most twisted game levels, some of new Postal’s maps are sure to be on it.

    Postal: Brain Damaged is, rather ironically, a sane and clear-headed new direction for the Postal series. Taking out the menial errands and aimless open world of Postal 4 to focus on straightforward levels and intense wave shooting was a great choice. Though the humor is as low-brow as ever, it’s much less repetitive and dials the penis and poop jokes down from a grating 10 to a tolerable 5. Featuring a vast variety of wild weapons and a netherworld full of nightmarish nemeses to use them on, Postal: Brain Damaged is a long-awaited return to psychopathic form for the series.

    Postal: Brain Damaged delivers a great throwback to classic FPS games from the 90s and early 00s, delivering breakneck gameplay, lots of fun weapons, and for better or worse, its signature edgy wit.

    By design, Postal: Brain Damaged is a relic of an era that passed about 20 years ago. It captures some of the best of the 2000s through lightning quick, buttery smooth and challenging gameplay, but also soils itself by relying on tired old tropes for comic relief and some rough edges with balancing. Postal Dude has a penchant for pissing himself and this Postal entry unfortunately can’t escape the dregs of his urine, but when did a little pee stop him causing havoc?

    It's hilarious that this is admittedly the best postal game. Game play is smooth, arenas are open and has great mobility. Really wish,It's hilarious that this is admittedly the best postal game. Game play is smooth, arenas are open and has great mobility. Really wish, however, that the weapons had stronger feed back and that the melee combat had a stun on first impact. Regardless, super solid and super fun to smash through ! Hoping that they add heaps of extra missions etc to the game going forwards and possible tighten up the gameplay, adding somewhat improved impact/sounds to the weapons. Otherwise, very ace boomer shooter.… Expand

    Новый постал я бы назвал винегретом из разных идей и механик шутеров прошлого и настоящего, ну а также всевозможных культурных референсовНовый постал я бы назвал винегретом из разных идей и механик шутеров прошлого и настоящего, ну а также всевозможных культурных референсов разной степени качества. И винегрет этот оказался вполне съедобным, но какое то новое слово в жанре никто говорить тут не собирается, просто ещё один прикольный бумер шутер. Играется неплохо и разнообразно, хоть местами и провисает. Ещё хотелось бы добавить что почтальон немного опаздывает, пытаясь быть злободневным. Шутки про коронавирус и стену Трампа в июне 2022 года, как по мне, выглядят как нечто из далёкого прошлого, хотя иногда игра всё же способна улыбнуть.… Expand
