sure it's a game and everything is virtual but i just don't see why anyone sane would feel the need to "virtually" kill innocent people in a game.

i mean if you get extra satisfaction out of killing virtual innocent people rather than virtual terrorists then I'd say there's something seriously wrong with you.

Ehhh I agree 50/50 on this one. I mean the point is valid and in most games you kill the "bad guys" and since this is the only game (besides GTA3) that I know of that you can kill innocent people this is bound to have a controversial effect.

Oh boy! Now all they need is to sign up w/Mr. T & the Olson twins. Then they'd really have something special.

Gary Coleman to star in "POSTAL 2"
Running With Scissors signs America's # 1 Celebrity Videogame Fan

Tucson, AZ - As the most dangerous videogame developers in the short history of man, Running With Scissors today confirmed that Gary Coleman, America's most beloved and belittled TV star, will play himself in POSTAL 2, the anxiously awaited sequel to the original PC cult classic!

"Gary's been a Postal fan since the beginning," gloated Vince Desi, Running With Scissors' CEO. "Just like adult diapers and apple pie, Postal and Gary Coleman are true American icons, so it made perfect sense to ask him to come join the frothy red fray of POSTAL 2. And for the first time in videogame history, a celebrity will actually appear as himself!"

Coleman, a contributing editor for UGO.com and equally well-known videogame enthusiast and industry expert, backed-up Running With Scissors' declaration with his trademark sense of irreverent humor by rhetorically asking fans, "Friend? Foe? YOU decide while on your quest for the nectar of the bovine!"

"Evil hath no wrath like a lactose-dependant man scorned," continued Coleman with a grin. "I've joined forces with the guerilla army of Running With Scissors to unleash the ultimate abomination for all to enjoy: POSTAL 2! Pull the pin and let me in! I'll help you take the game world by storm by getting rid of those daily 'politically correct' headaches with hand grenades and shotgun blasts!"

"Gary's not pulling your chain here," chimed in Desi. "The first day we had Gary at our camp in Tucson, we took him out for a little Running With Scissors' style 'first-person' fun (http://www.gopostal.com/gary). That means shooting full-auto for all those gun-grabbing/game-banning politicians out there."

POSTAL 2 is being built using Epic Game's UNREAL engine technology and MathEngine's Karma physics. Combined with Running With Scissors' own Liquid software, it makes for a pure adrenaline gaming experience. POSTAL 2 will be available worldwide this fall.

Ahhhhhhhh......Fall is my favorite season.

If you dont like it, dont play it. As for telling people they are going to hell,if brainwashed people can choose what the content of the media I choose to watch contains, thats hell to me. Dont push your religous propoganda here. Until you can prove it exists, dont push it on other people. I find that very offensive. The only way you go to far is, if you accept what you are doing in a game as being real. Like I said if you are not mentally strong enough to not know imaginary from real, play solitaire. Im sorry for the rant.

I have a sick sense of humor, and games like this TOTALLY appeal to me. I hope they get much worse. But, I'm also a sane person who realizes the difference between reality and make-believe.

If a game/movie supposedly makes you violent, you have other issues that would've brought the violence out anyways. Even if you're a violent person without the help of video games and movies you're a sick individual. I'm quick to anger, but short of someone raping my mom or my wife, I have no reason to hit anyone.

Next, like someone else just said If you don't like it turn it off. This goes for parents too. Watch your goddamn children!!! Kids in Columbine? Parents fault! Kid that flew his plane into a building in Florida. Parents fault! Listen to your f'n kids, raise them up right, and let me playing my f'n video games with people's arteries exploding!

The more killing, and gibs the better :)

This is a fine line tho, because the game in which you play a serial killer that skins people alive and eats them is prolly well past that line ;)

Look everyone has an evil streak in them.

Anybody here ever play Fallout? :D

I played that game so my times as the Hero goody two shoes that I finally deceided I was going to try to kill every living creature in the game (except Dogmeat he's 2 :cool: ) Women, Children, Old people, young people, the guys and girls who would normally go with you, Mutants, Ghouls, Dogs, two headed cows, robots...everything that got in my way I killed using a minigun a flamethrower a rifle a shotgun a spear a grenade a laser a plasma gun a chainsaw a knife a rock, brass knukles, brass knukles with spikes, a powerfist a rocket launcher a deagle a cattle prod and a laser minigun...get my drift?

And you know what?

IT WAS A BLAST!!

I would walk into towns and would automatically be attacked by the police... I had bounty hunters looking for me...

and I made it through the whole game intill I tried to take out the brotherhood of steel :eek: They always ended handing me my *** on a plate :p ( I joined first to get the power armour and then went and attacked the head paladin in his office...I was finally cut in half by a laser minigun weilding knight after taking most of the brotherhood out.

An I a sick bastard for lighting pixels made to look like a kid on fire with a flamethrower made out of pixels? Maybe I don't know.

Have I ever hurt a child in real life? only my daugther's butt when she lies or mouths off. Would I ever really hurt a child or kill one? No.

So give me a break about the horrible games :rolleyes: Sure this game is in VERY BAD TASTE..but no one has the right to tell me I can not buy it if I want too...I am over 30.

Dude, that's funny. I've never played fallout. Is it an RPG?

Yes it is a RPG but without the sword and dragons.

Made by Interplay it was a GOTY and worth playing over and over for the many different ways you could build your character. Handsdown my all time favorite game.

Heres the link!

And the best thing is it works well with XP (2000 Fallout 1 runs but you have to do a work around...) and its now only $9.95 for both Fallout 1 and 2 ( Fallout 2 works with every MS OS well)

Hell I paid full price for both when they came out and don't regret a dime :D!
