One of the most bizarre and controversial titles of the early 2000s is back and it’s found its way onto STEAM. Postal 2 Complete has been greenlit by the community, which either means that its now better than ever or that we’ve all completely lost our minds.

After playing the game again, it would seem as though the latter is true.

In Postal 2, you are given a number of errands that you must complete each day. While the errands are similar to what most of us would call “missions”, their objectives are often much more simple than the missions we’ve become accustomed to in RPGs and other titles. In a testament to this, one of the first errands you have to run is to go to the store and get some milk. The atmosphere of the store is hilarious, as the middle eastern music blasts and the shopkeeper insults all of the patrons in his shop. The brilliance of Postal 2 is the non-linear manner in which you can complete your errands. Do you just pay for the milk or do you just grab it and then fight your way out of the store, hitting everyone in your path with a shovel? The choice is yours. I should warn you though, the shop keeper is packing serious heat.
