10 Video Games Even Worse Than Everyone Expected

Look, none of the Postal games are genuinely good, but in the very least Postal 2 was a moderately amusing time-waster where you could creatively raise hell and, er, hang out with Gary Coleman.

In theory, Postal III should've basically just delivered more of the trashy, deranged same albeit with shinier graphics, yet developers Running with Scissors made the ill-advised decision to outsource development to a Russian publisher, Akella, who hired the aptly-named Trashmasters to make the game.

Unsurprisingly this resulted in development straying from Running with Scissors' original vision for the sequel, in turn delivering an atrocious end product that was far more linear than the second game while packed with bugs and charmlessly edgy "humour."

Evidently Postal III even turned out far worse than Running with Scissors themselves could've ever anticipated, causing them to remove the game from their own store, with company head Vince Desi bluntly calling it a "s**tfest."

An expansion to Postal 2, Paradise Lost, was released by Running With Scissors a few years later to a considerably more positive response, and to draw a firm line under Postal III, it even retconned that game's events into a dream sequence that never actually happened.

The recently released Postal 4: No Regerts may have been an abject disaster, but it still wasn't as soul-destroyingly terrible as the third game.
