The Latest Fan Submissions - Send In Yours And See It Here!!

In the decade that the POSTAL franchise has stalked the Earth, our success can be attributed primarily to two things: Good games and even better fans. We genuinely believe that our fans are the most creative, passionate and supportive group of gamers on this planet. As a result, Postal Nation has no geographic borders; rather, it is a state of mind that spans the globe. Our fans enjoy indulging in some harmless fun and they possess a sense of humor, and we want to thank you all from the bottom of our withered, black hearts.

Now let’s hear from some of those fans as well as checking out some of their most creative contributions to our legacy.

"I have been playing postal since the launch of Postal 1 and it has greatly influenced my warped sense of humor and lifestyle over the years. Because of this my band has created a song tributing and honoring such video game greatness. Hope you guys dig it!"

"I have had Vince and Mike of Running with Scissors on my radios show and internet TV programs of the years, When they hit the studios the phones light up from around the world. When Vince had been on the show you won’t see anyone more into promoting his love and that is the game Postal. He is a believer that the underdog still can go out and make your dreams come true in the good old US of A! I would like to thank Vince and Mike for being on the program. Postal People Good People!!"

First of all, I wanted to thank you for your great ideas and for the POSTAL games so far. They’re great games and I had a lot of fun, over years! Finally I ordered your Postal X - Anniversary Package and I could not believe what I saw yesterday! It's the "Krotchy O's"-Bix in my mailbox :D

Germany is not a country where POSTAL or it's follow-ups is seen gladly. The government of Germany kinda sucks, but that's still another topic... Matter of fact: I have the Postal-Box right here in my hands, an that's great :D

I'm pretty sure, that POSTAL III will blow the socks off of every POSTAL-lover worldwide
;-).

BILL: Thank YOU, Andy. Btw, Andy was also one of the readers who asked about getting to the various sound bites from the P2 games, so make sure you check out the Game Doctor column in this issue!

I just wanted to drop you a line from the UK, im 18, and just about to start my degree in video games design, i wanted to thank you mainly for inspiring me to join the video games design community. It is true that I began playing POSTAL when i was a fair bit under the age of 18, however I’ll keep it a secret. Hopefully after my 3-year course I will be able to work on a project such as POSTAL 3, or possibly the next POSTAL game!
