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