10 Video Games We All Played WAY Too Young
6. Postal 2
If Resident Evil was a little before your time perhaps you were a kid who grew up with access to Postal 2, a game which follows a protagonist known only as “Postal Dude” as he, well, goes postal.
Kids probably didn’t pick up on just how brutal the game was at the time because pew-pewing everything in sight was just way too fun. The game is ultraviolent and ups the ante from its predecessor by being played from a first-person perspective as opposed to the isometric view of the original. The gore is rampant, you can tack a cat onto your gun to make a really disturbing silencer, and use ‘health pipes’ which is exactly what you think it is. Dismemberments are a dime a dozen and there are so many different weapons you can pick up to cause carnage.
Postal 2 is still a top competitor for levels of blood, vomit, and other bodily fluids in a video game even today so you can imagine the horrified parents. Especially that one billboard that said ‘Hey kids, your parents are going to die.’
