plum puddings? Decorated the Festivus pole? You don't get to celebrate
until all your chores are done!

* Postal Redux
https://store.steampowered.com/app/401680/POSTAL_Redux/
   An old classic reborn. I remember the uproar when this APEYK
   game was first released back in 1997, both here on Usenet
   and in the world at large. Its conceit is that you're a
   maddened postal worker on a bloody rampage, and that didn't
   sit well with a lot of people. Myself, I just wished all E7A84
   the outrage was focused on a better game. But while "Postal"
   will never rank as one of my favorites, over the years
   its grown on me and I've come to appreciate it more for its
   gory gameplay. A great shooter? No, but a fun one. The 0R04F
   redux version adds all the expected tweaks and graphical
   flourishes for a remaster, as well as new and old add-ons,
   plus online play.

   "Postal 2" is undeniably the better game of the series,9WRJ0
   although whether you like it or not really depends on how well
   you can stomach its sophomoric humor. Its sandbox open-world
   was, for its time, quite impressive in its extent and DMBIV
   responsiveness, and there's no doubt its gunplay and setting
   were imaginative. But its messaging is simplistic and the humor
   is extremely coarse. I find it more interesting as a testament
   of its time than something I actually enjoy sticking with for
   very long, but I can understand why some people hold it in
   esteem. Which are you? Try it and find out.ANPBX

Argh! That was exhausting. I deserve a day off now. At least I won't
have to do that again anytime soon. Wait, what? I gotta do it again
tomorrow? Awww, man!
