Running With Scissors' POSTAL
2: Apocalypse Weekend, gamers controlling the enigmatic
Postal Dude will be sorely tempted to carry on his wicked ways in the weekend
that follows on the bloody heels of the five insane, carnage-filled days
experienced in
POSTAL 2.
Shipping this summer,
POSTAL
2: Apocalypse Weekend single-player expansion pack offers over
20 new areas of Paradise to decimate, 10 new missions to execute with extreme
prejudice and an array of "cutting edge" weaponry that would make Lorena
Bobbitt salivate.
Running With Scissors industry iconoclast Vince Desi
promises fans of
POSTAL 2 that the new implements
of destruction will definitely appeal to their inner-Grim Reaper. "Gamers
will no longer be limited to merely blasting, burning and blowing up enemies – they
can hack them down to nuggets as well!" Desi boasts. "There's the
Scythe which definitely has some serious hands-on/heads-off appeal. Then there's
the Sledgehammer – pound for pound pure enjoyment. My personal favorite is
the Boomerang Machete. It's exactly what it sounds like – a machete that you
can throw like a boomerang! Just line up some Mad Cow-infected Tourettes Zombies
and cut right through and through and through!"
In addition to new non-player characters (NPCs) such as the Mad Cow-infected
Tourettes Zombies, old favorites such as
Gary Coleman, Terrorist
Zealots and the
Postal Babes are also on hand for a wild weekend
with the Postal Dude. Other features allow users to determine NPC logic with
dynamic, real-time AI; set up buildings, furniture and other visual elements
to produce original game scenarios and create their own MOD for
POSTAL
2.
