Saying "I like Postal 2" isn't a very simple thing to bring myself to say... "Like" is a strong word, and by almost no means is this game "good" in my traditional experience with that word either...

What word that can describe this game then? I guess the best way to describe my experience with this game is that it was well... an "experience".

If you've played it or even know of it, I'm sure you know this game is just fucking crazy. It's over the top, campy, edgy, backwards as hell. It's early 2000s edge concentrated in a game. In a non ironic sense it's those weird awkward edgy kids on the school bus who listened to Slipknot, quoted Cartman from South Park while missing the irony of his character, and obsessed with wrestlers like Sting and Cain a little too much. In a more ironic sense there's some extremely forced and on the nose but still fun bits of social satire and commentary about the morality of media going on under the surface of this game along with a healthy does of genuine weirdness in the approach to it. But that strange duality and appeal is honestly what makes it such a interesting time to play it.

I will literally never forget my time with this game, I don't know how I ever possibly could. And that at least is something tangible this game absolutely has.
