Postal III Big Hit At Random Tuscon Comic Convention
3:40AM Mike Fahey | The first annual Tuscon Comic Con took place this past Saturday in Tuscon, Arizona, and Postal developer Running With Scissors was there as the only, and perhaps last video game company represented at the show. Confused fans were given a preview of the upcoming Postal III, and while their ‘lovable’ mascot Krotchy was banned they still let studio head Vince Desi attend. Go figure. RWS character Krotchy wasn’t permitted entry due to the large number of under-18 year olds. However, copies of the M rated “Postal” DVD were given away as prizes because “that’s the way we roll,” explained RWS’ own Iron Man, Vince Desi, adding: “”Holy Crap, Batman! Tucson’s first Comic Con was Da-sheet.” Then, turning briefly serious, Desi concluded, “It’s a real boner… I mean honour for RWS to be a part of this premier event.” More »
Jizz Mopping Through The Dildo Wonderland
10:00AM Brian Ashcraft | Postal III ups the Postal bar. And that’s not easy! Sure, the upcoming third-person Postal title features franchise standards like setting people on fire and shooting the crap outta everything. Postal III offers new weapons like the Badger Saw. (Instead of simply carrying around a chainsaw, the Postal Dude packs a large badger, which he uses to shred people to bits.) This time around, the Postal Dude gets his first job in a porn shop/strip club, working as a jizz mopper with a vacuum cleaner strapped to his back. The Postal Dude sucks up drenched tissues and can fire them at things like portly soccer mums who are protesting porn or pole dancing strippers, drenching both in, um, white goo. However! It’s not possible to suck up porn shop dildos or butt-plugs or fists with the vacuum cleaner. Running With Scissors honcho Vince Desi says: More »
Village Person Gets Postal III Appearance
2:00AM Brian Crecente | Randy “The Cowboy Guy In The Village People” Jones will be appearing in the upcoming shooter Postal III, Running With Scissors announced today. Jones will appear as the leader of a gay biker gang in the game. Good to see that Postal isn’t into type casting or anything. When not appearing in Postal III video games, Jones is still plugging away on his music career with a new CD and international concert tour. Starting this weekend he will also be starting in the Broadway musical Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat. Hmmm, I wonder which of these he’s not going to put on his resume. Full release on the jump. More »
A Trio Of Postal III Screenies
1:00PM Brian Ashcraft | More Postal III screens! Sigh. In the game, the Postal Dude explores fictional city Catharsis, which is supporting eco-terrorists, Uncle Dave’s Zealot Nuns and the Taliban. Postal III features “complex AI” and is being developed on Valve’s Source Engine (which powered Half-Life 2). The series has switched out first-person POV for third-person. Fear not, the tasteless humour probably remains! It will hit PC and Xbox 360 sometime late next year and just might be better than expected. Still, don’t get your hopes up.
