Postal III

richardg234's Postal III (PC) review

Good but could be better

The Postal series is one of the most controversial on the market. Postal 1 started the ball rolling in 97 and Postal 2 completed the formula in 03 so on paper Postal 3 should be the best but it's not. It's still fun but not as good as Postal 2.

Story: After the events of Postal 2, the Postal Dude has moved to Catharsis and is trying to get a job to get some gas so he can relocate again but when he is involved in a bank robbery he must make a decision to be good or evil.

Gameplay: Postal 3 is a Third-Person Shooter and the shooting feels nice even though aiming leaves a little to be desired. There is free roaming but you can only access it after you have beaten the game.

Graphics: Postal 3 uses the Source Engine and the game looks good despite being a bit dated, the enviroments look nice and some of the interiors look nice.

Sound: The music is the game is very catchy and the voice acting for the most part is good. Cory Cruise does a good job of voicing the Postal Dude and there are celebrities voicing the characters like: Porn star Ron Jeremy, Randy Jones of the Village People and Jennifer Walcott.

Bugs: The game crashes after a couple of hours of play, there is some weird glitches with weapons and NPC's and the friendly AI is awful.

Overall the game is not bad but has a lot of rough edges, I would only recommend it to Postal fans.

The Postal Series has been around for awhile now. Starting off with the original Postal game in 1997, it was a gritty, intelligent and funny, which made it one of the most unique IP on the market. Eight years later after Postal 2, the postal series has finally returned to conclude the trilogy. What could have been a great game is instantly turned it into a cosmic mess with no clear direction, outdated controller and horrible game design. Postal III isn’t just the worst downloadable game I have e...

Everything About Postal 3 Feels Fake 0
Postal III(PC) by omali on December 27, 2011
Postal 3 does to the Postal series what Duke Nukem Forever did to Duke Nukem: Managed to take concepts that couldn't realistically be disappointing, and manages to disappoint all the way to the bank. Like a pizza sundae, Postal 3 is a mixture of delicious ingredients thrown together to come out with a sloppy, messy concoction that feels more like a poor community mod of Postal 2's Apocalypse Weekend on the Source engine rather than an actual game by Running With Scissors.Postal 3 feels fake, rig...
