Kiss Political Correctness Goodbye! Postal Redux Arrives on Steam

Screw political correctness! It’s time to play some Postal! That’s right… the classic 1997 game that served as a great big “fuck you” to PC culture has now been re-released on Steam in the form of a high-definition remake.
And while the controversy that the series is now infamous for didn’t really start until the second game (with its homicidal rampages and pissing on dead terrorists and all), in this age of SJWs taking offense at anything that moves, now seems like as good a time as any to revisit the game that takes political correctness and pees on it as if it were a dead terrorist. Hell, if Uwe Boll was able to turn it into a movie that was actually worth watching, then it must have done something right.
Synopsis:
The classic dark and surreal twin-stick isometric shooter returns with a vengeance!
POSTAL Redux is a high-definition remake of The Postal Dude’s infamous first foray into the world. Prepare to experience his psychological journey with faithfully recreated high-res visuals; remastered music, sounds, and dialog; and revamped and modernized gameplay. Crazed gunmen out for your blood await you around every corner. The only choice is clear: Get them before they get you. Fight back with a devastating arsenal as you make your way through a violence-stricken town.
It’s time to relive the madness of GOING POSTAL!
Brand new Rampage mode: Take aim for the high score in this frantic mode that awards points for sustained kill streaks, creative methods of destruction, and blistering fast action!
Battle through 17 levels in the classic Campaign: Beginning from your humble Home, traverse through The Mine and Trailer Park, witness the mean streets of The Ghetto and the bright lights of The City, all the way to the final standoff at the Air Force Base, including a stop at the all-new Carnival.
A wide range of foes: Defend yourself against gun crazy Vigilantes, trigger-happy Police Officers, trained and efficient SWAT and Military squads, the quintessential Marching Band, and angry Ostriches!
10 weapons of destruction: Lay waste with the mighty Shotgun and Spray Cannon, roast attackers with Molotovs and the Flamethrower, fill the streets with fire with the Napalm Launcher, clear out entire groups with Grenades and the Rocket Launcher (Heatseekers included!), lay traps for unsuspecting pursuers with varied types of Mines, and introducing the commanding Revolver!
