God damn this looks awful.
Why would you want to watch that? The game is completely uninteresting in every possible way.

That ER would run half an episode.

I want a Postal 3 ER just so the 'Endurance' factor actually means something, and isn't just a joke. They wouldn't endure that, that's for sure.

A game that makes Duke Nukem Forever look competent. Who would have thought.
I couldn't even endure the quick look.

You sound like you found it offensive. My problem was that it wasn't offensive at all. It was incredibly tame and boring.
Well you missed some hilarious racism and the game crashing.
Amazing that this has been in development for forever and this is what happened. And Ryan paid $40 for it, ouch.

benevolent sexism
Are you saying they succeeded in offending you? The terrorists have won.
I would enjoy seeing more of it in that it's interesting to see what the developers think is funny and offensive. And to think about why they failed so miserably. To understand how they went wrong might be helpful in understanding how to do comedy in games right.

Just imagine jumping into ep 24, when every "joke", mission assignment and achievement would be met with deep sighs and gargling noises.

Do any GFW Radio fans remember Shawn Elliot seeing Postal 3 YEARS ago at E3 and his impressions of it then?
Because it not only looks to be as bad as it was back then, but using pretty much all of the same "jokes".

Damn, I remembered the Cum Wad talk but though it was post GFW radio.
That's so insulting, comparing anything to No More Heroes.

It was definitely during GFW Radio because Shawn was at E3 and he was saying how he had to fake laugh to not insult the devs but it made him really embarrassed because this woman was disgusted by it and thought he genuinely found it funny, haha.
It's because they choose something that "should" be offensive just for the sake of it because the overall game is boring and unimaginative as hell.
Woah woah woah woah woah.

How sad it must have been to work on the cum wad mission sporadically for over four years.

Relic's Mark Noseworthy (Dawn of War 2) drops by for the final E3 show. Topics include Dawn of War 2 (duh), Postal 3, and general closing thoughts on E3.
I assume it's that one.
Edit: It's the first thing they talk about! It's even funnier after seeing the final product!
That was what actually offended me the most. It's incomplete, on a very basic level. Stuff you can't rationalize away as 'design decisions'. 40$.
sweet, thanks
Not only are there not basic sound effects, but some are stock Source sounds. Overall this comes off as a bad source mod being sold for 40 bones.

Because the game crashed.
Postal 3 looks so bad. The "humor" isn't funny or even that shocking, it's just dumb.
So in this years they change from soccer moms to hockey moms, awesome xD
Man Postal 3, what a mess! What have they been doing all those years? It still looks like an unfinished, boring piece of shit. This is even worse than the train wreck I expected. I thought it would be just shitty humor and awful missions but this is just depressing. I really hope nobody buys this.
I see the game more like a chore. Its collision detection looks like it was designed by a leprechaun.

I was planning on buying it ironically, but man... There's nothing salvageable about this, it's just a big lump of sadness.
Hopefully RWS will go away after this. They should not be allowed to make games.
I see Postal III attempting to be offensive, and instead of saying "My goodness I'm completely shocked at these things happening in an interactive medium" like they intended, I'm saying "Aw that's cute, they think they're smart peoples".
I do look forward to reviews of it though, the thrashing will be astronomical.
