10 Video Game Achievements That Were Designed To Make You Feel Bad
7. It's Sterile And I Like The Taste (Postal 2)
You can do some really daft things in Postal 2, from using stray cats as gun silencers to peeing on people until they puke. Speaking of urine, the 'It's Sterile And I Like The Taste' achievement, as you might be able to guess, can only be earned by tasting some of your own bodily fluids. The name of the achievement is taken from a line of dialogue in the classic Vince Vaughn comedy, DodgeBall: A True Underdog Story.
In order to go all Bear Grylls and unlock this embarrassing achievement, players had to unzip their fly and pee directly up into the air above them, waiting around for a few moments until the urine dropped back down and all over their face.
Despite the ridiculousness of the Postal series, this achievement serves as an interesting social commentary on how far gamers are willing to go just to earn little pixelated trophies and points on their online profiles. In fact, if you look at the Steam achievements charts, you might be astonished to see that over a quarter of all Postal 2 players have actually taken the time to unlock this one.
