Running With Scissors (RWS) have today announced that they will be bringing a new game to the Xbox 360 and PC called Postal 3. Postal 3 is a sequel to the long-running Postal series which was originally released almost a decade ago.
Postal is an odd title that doesn't really fit into a category easily. Postal is a first person shooter with attitude and a bit of dark comedy mixed in, and Postal 3 is certainly going to give you a different feel to what you expect from your average FPS title.
"We started this series back in 1997," recalled RWS CEO Vince Desi, "and while the franchise has grown into an international computer game sensation during that time, it has always been our goal to bring it to the videogame console marketplace. For many years I've been asked by gamers around the world when Postal will appear on console. I'm so proud to be able to answer our fans' prayers."
Postal 3 will include an array of performances by well-known celebrities digitally captured for use in the game, mimicking their exact movements for a realistic experience. The Running with Scissors team have teamed up with Akella to produce a high quality title for the 360 and all those Half Life 2 fans out there will be pleased to hear that Postal 3 will be using Valve's amazing Source engine to rocket Postal 3 into the gaming charts. As you can see from the above screenshot of Postal 2, the similarities between Postal and Half Life are quite visible. The only downside to this game is that it is scheduled for a 2008 release, so you have just under two years to wait until you can get your hands on it!
