POSTAL Redux

POSTAL Redux combines isometric twin-stick combat with a campaign, extra levels, and online modes. At the tracked low, it costs ≈ $0.50 at Kinguin. It is a particularly fitting buy if you want the solo campaign or plan to play co-op with up to four people.

Deathmatch for up to eight players and score-focused Rampage round out the modes. The game therefore accommodates both a solo run and defined multiplayer plans at this low price. At Kinguin, POSTAL Redux costs $8.99 at the tracked low; its co-op for up to four players suits shared sessions.

Started playing this game.. wondering why I don't hear people suffering on the ground, crying for help, leaving blood trails as they try to crawl away.. All that good stuff in the original? It seems they toned down this remake a lot, even Postal Dude's language is "softer." Better graphics didn't make for a better game and as much as I love RWS, I don't recommend buying this even for the 50% off discount I got on it. EDIT: Devs plugged in an update that allows you to change the frequency of the dialogue. Only issue is, you repeatedly hear the same thing being said whereas I recall a lot more different dialogue lines in the original. I don't know if some of the content was cut but at least they resolved one issue. However, it still feels toned down.Show moreShow less

Postal 1, the famous violent misanthropic game from the days long gone, re-made in a new body with the "redux" second name. It is constantly updating even now, and offers at moment: the main campaign (straight from 1997), 6 new levels, multiplayer with co-op and deathmatch modes, and "carnage" mode, for the lovers of bloody killstreaks and c-c-combos! Oh, well, and it's still dull. And rage-producing. That's my main niggle, by the way: the game which is supposed to channel aggression into innocuous pushing of buttons, in reality, does the opposite: it maintains my anger, fuel it, to the point when I'm growling on the people around. I might be able to even kick someone, like the trolls who love pestering around webpages. What's the fuel of this reaction? Well, for one, it's optimization. Yes, even now, with all updates of the version 4.2.1, the game engine still crushes, the loading screens still taking more time to proceed than booting of my Windows 10. And the game freezes for about 2-5 seconds on the start of every level, just when you engaging in the first shootout... The second half of this god-awful feeling the game provides, yes, it is about pointless and mindless killing of dummy people. Which gets repetitive just on the first level, and never evolves into anything worthwhile. The AI is still not good, the hitboxes are peculiar and the weaponry is odd. On the bright side, the game's easy enough (with glitches unlocking the exit before any kills) and fair enough with achievements, so, if you're an achievement hunter, you can play the game just for the badge. On the general score, though... It's not the best pick. I'd vouch for Hotline Miami myself, for the better story, visuals, and challenge. As of mark, 6/10. But no, I don't like the game, so, it's downvote from me. Not that it was really objectively, but... I'm just saying, you know. You can play it and make your own opinion.Show moreShow less

If you loved the original Postal, you'll love this. If you love Postal 2, give the first Postal a look before buying, it's a completely different type of game. If you don't know what Postal is, keep reading. Postal was released in 1997 and created a ton of controversy for it's violence. Sure, it may be tame by todays standards, but back then, this game was targeted by tons of groups. It wasn't that the game was bloody (though it is), but the manner in which the violence is depicted. Roughly 1/3 of the people you get ot kill in this game are civillians. Some of them will crawl along the ground after being shot, saying things like "I can't feel my legs". It does paint a pretty disturbing, if a bit darkly humorous, picture. So what's it all about? That's almost a mystery. What we know is, there's a guy named "Postal Dude" who is evicted from his home and is getting shot at by the authorities. If you read the manual, he believes a large portion of the population in his town have some sort of sickness. However, in-game, the messages before the levels are just bleak and sometimes downright evil. Aside from these messages, there isn't much to go on. As such, you can draw up tons of conclusions in this game. That's one of the things that makes it so intriguing (as well as the atmosphere in general). The whole game takes on a very, again, disturbing tone. Not quite Manhunt level of disturbing, but it can still be pretty unsettling. The game is played from a top-down perspective. It controls, now, like a modern twin-stick shooter. Each level has a set number of people you have to kill (or you can opt to kill the entire population on the stage). Once you kill enough, the exit will open. It's a fairly short experience. Each level will take 4-5 minutes to clear (with the later stages taking a bit longer, obviously). There are 17 stages in all, as well as a Rampage mode where you try and string together kills to get a high score. Gameplay-wise, the game is simple. You point, you shoot, you walk, you shoot some more, you pick up more weapons and health, repeat this until the level ends. It's simple, and pretty fun, but it does wear thin pretty quickly (the game will be over before you're completely bored with it, though). The AI isn't particularly smart, but it does seem like some of the pathfinding issues have been ironed out since the original. Graphics-wise, the game looks fantastic when compared to the original. I thought that the newer character models did give it an overall more "cartoony" feel, but it's still a great upgrade. The redrawn maps are beautiful, and everything is animated nicely. However, if you don't know what to expect from the original Postal, this game will still look extremely dated if you're expecting a modern-looking game. Some of the sounds have been revamped, but most of the levels are still devoid of any kind of music. You still get the creepy ambient sounds, the great environmental sounds, and all the other good stuff, but I really wish that RWS would have composed some tracks for the campaign. Rampage mode does have music, and it's very up tempo and fits in with the gameplay. Overal, Postal Redux accomplishes what it wanted to. It updated the graphics, gameplay, and overall experience of the original Postal. Is Postal still a good game to play in 2016? It's definitely fun in small doses, but it does come off as very primitive these days. I still enjoy myself, but I can understand how someone would favor newer twin-stick shooters over this game. + Graphical overhaul + New weapons + Rampage mode + Still as atmospheric as ever + Revamped controls - Short - Very basic when compared to newer games of its kind For fans of the original Postal: 9/10 (doesn't include expansion levels) For newcomers: 6/10 It would have been a bit higher, but $15 for this game, if you've never played Postal and don't exactly know what you're getting into, it might seem a bit steep. It's a definite purchase at <$10Show moreShow less
