HA! Just got an email from the Postal 2 team complaining about their score of 0 in current mags..

[LordJezo]

Somehow I got on the postal 2 mailing list and just got this email from them...

Only because I'm being swamped with emails telling me about some a-hole journalist imposters at Computer Gaming World and GMR magazines do I feel compelled to write to you, the GREATEST FANS in the world. It is YOU and ONLY YOU who we care about.

I've just returned from a rare vacation, and have learned of the Perfect Score, 0, we received by some thesaurus smoking rapeclown writer at CGW and an identical twin-turd at GMR, now 2 Zeros plus 2 A-holes equals PURE CRAP, these guys have their tongues firmly implanted in the anuses of their sterile parent game publisher Ziff Davis.

Now I don't mind that they use RWS or POSTAL to grab attention to their failing tampon of a rag magazine, but its a real diservice to mislead their subscribers, gamers and everyone in the gaming community. People pay hard earned money for their "magazines" and they look for accurate information and reviews about games, not political expressions by closet case pseudo jouranlists. My apologies to all who have paid for these moralistic manifestos, one can only suspect they're on the payroll of the Leiberman For President campaign, so much for independece and originality. GOD BLESS AMERICA, we sure can use it.

So I say to you, to hell with them, lets not waste our valuable time stretching these a-holes, lets move on and have fun, play POSTAL, destroy, kill and enjoy life.

Always,
V

I hate to tell them, but, that game really really sucked.

Yeah, I'm gonna have to go ahead and agree with you there. Played it for a couple days, but once the 'shock value' wore off, I hit uninstall and haven't looked back.

 

[amnesiac]

They're just mad because their game sucks.

 

[Anubis]

the newest Maxim gave it a 3/5

 

[BillGates]

Yep, I was bored by the game after about 20 minutes. I tried it again later when I was drunk and that didn't help at all.

Sucks, possibly, but it's not the Battlefield Earth of video games; that belongs to Diakan-whachamacallit.

Daikatana. That game isn't worth the disc it's burned on.

what type of game is it

 

[LordJezo]

Snippet from the new CGW review on the game

until someone boxes up syphillis and tries to sell it at retail, Postal 2 is the worst product ever foisted upon consumers

[FrustratedUser]

Interesting

 

[BeauJangles]

Wow. That email wasn't unprofessional or childish or anything

I the Postal 2 team needs to realize there game sucked ass and had a bad concept. Plenty of other companies have done it... you just move on.

 

The game sucks, and they are mad that everyone knows.

 

[ultimatebob]

Yeah, I tried the 5 minute demo download off of their website. They got the timing about right, because the novelty wore off and the game started to get really boring around that point.

Here's what Gamespot has to say about it.

EDIT: i love reading bad game reviews, they're usually pretty creative. one time i was reading CGW and the reviewer told like a half page anecdote about a vacation he once took b/c he said it was more interesting than the game. bwahaha.

 

[Freejack2]

Enh, I think it's hit or miss. Some people seem to love it and some hate it.
I guess for those that loved GTA3, GTA-VC then they'll at least want to try it.

 

[psianime]

If it sucks it sucks. I wish they would be more graceful about it.

 

[tokamak]

i subscribe to CGW. that email only confirms what their reviewer wrote.

 

[hevnsnt]

I think it is very unprofessional of them to send this type of email out to anyone as "Official Postal 2 team" email.. I will not be checking out this software now, not from the reviews but the way they handled themselves..
