if you don't mind dated gfx - like to do stupid/silly things - don't mind (or actually enjoy) pixelated cat abuse - don't expect a triple A title (barely even a single C title i guess) and preferably get enjoyment out of cheap humor.. then this can be a fun game.
Depending on if you like those things it will probably get a rating of 1 at worst to maybe a 7 at best

Postal 2 = 9/10 (just keep in mind: it's dated)
Postal 3 = 0/10 (Not made by RWS, they hate it as much as we do :))

On August 25, 2012 developer and Postal franchise owner Running with Scissors removed Postal 3 from their store, stating that it was "in the best interest of the Postal Community" and encouraged gamers to instead purchase their earlier titles, stating that they are "a far superior product for a lot less money".

That's why they keep Postal 3 at so damn high price + very bad discounts on sales? For me it looks more like a greed.

Postal 3 was not published by RWS, if it was they'd probably have pulled it from the Steam store as well. As it stands RWS has no control over the pricing or distribution of Postal 3 (outside of removing it from their own store.)

Also they make no money on it, like none apparently.

Pretty sure they are trying to sell a bunch of Postal 1/2 on steam while updating them a bunch(Achievements, wide screen, fixes, etc...) so that they can have enough money to make an actual Postal 3...

Like ANeM said, they can't do shit about that, nor could they fix Postal 3. All blame to Akella (shitty russian company).

RWS explained the situation by stating that Postal III 'was licensed to a Russian publisher and developer who were supposed produce the game to our design, with a much bigger team and budget than we had for POSTAL 2."
We stopped selling the game ourselves some time ago when it became apparent that neither us or the community would get the SDK tools. We don't regard it as the third POSTAL game, just a dodgy spin off that should never have happened." wikipedia

BUT "after the disaster that was PIII due to the mistake of outsourcing it, we have decided to make the next game 100% in house"
Main reason I bought Postal 2 for the third time in my life (Steam sales though), I hope they get the funds someday for a real Postal 3.

I think regardless of how good or bad the game itself is, it's kinda significant for the history of the medium. I myself think it's a crap game intentionally or accidentally turned into an interesting social experiment.

Many years ago and when I was younger, game was very good, especially Apocalypse Weekend addon was fantastic! But now... I'm unsure. Compared to other games it looks like a damn shit. I would have to play it again, to check if how is it.
