Postal Brain Damaged

[al_infierno]

How did this one slip under my radar?  A Doom/Duke Nukem (or "boomer shooter") style FPS with loads of crazy guns and out-there enemies.

I picked this one up and am enjoying it a lot.  It's got really nice meaty gunplay and a great theme, even if the crass humor is hit or miss.  What I really like as a fan of the Postal games is how it feels like a fever dream of the first two games mashed together.  It has the humor and cartoony over-the-topness of Postal 2, but the basic game setup of "choose a level and kill all the enemies and kill pedestrians too if you feel like it" from the original Postal.  This is not at all open-world like Postal 2 and the later games, this is a straight up level-based shooter - and it does an excellent job at that basic task.

The story seems to be that the Postal Dude is having some kind of fever dream.  I don't think plot is all that important here, but it makes a solid excuse for shooting up some zany monsters in weird environments.
