Yeah, that’s exactly the kind of genuinely funny mature comedy I was looking for. :rolleyes:
No offense intended, Badtz, but attention-grabbing “please someone look at how edgy and XTREME we are” like Postal 2 are why I’m sometimes ashamed that I work in videogames.
Lunar: Silver Star Story for PS2 is hilarious. Most of the characters in your party are raunchy teenagers making all kinds of off-color jokes. For example, when the party arrives in a backwater town and the locals complain about the bridge being out, one of the characters says, “I’d be suprised if anyone in this town could nail anything besides their cousin.”
Leather Goddesses of Phobos:
“Do you want to play in TAME, SUGGESTIVE, or LEWD mode?”
Star Control II:
“The Ur-Quan has returned! How unusually brave
for a leprous, non-functional sex organ, like yourself.”
Commander Keen!
granted, I was, what…7 at the time?
shut up. I was little.

I love Blizzard’s “tradition” of RTS units giving sillier and sillier responses when you keep clicking them. For some reason, Starcraft’s human tank driver’s rendition of “Flight of the Valkyries” always cracks me up.
But for pure gut-busting giggles for no good reason, I have to go with “Want some Rye? Course you do!”
Lots of entertainment can be had cruisin’ around in a vehicle in Vice City, listening to all those dj’s, talk radio personalities, and commercials…funniest stuff I’ve heard so far…
I love the Viking dude in Vice City.
Wow, my brain was still not functioning right when I made that post…well, it’s still mostly understandable.
I like Postal 2 (at least, the demo) because the way the characters interact and are unpredictable. I figured out how to take the time limit off the demo, and have had a lot of fun exploring the tiny portion of that surreal little town that’s available in the demo. I was able to train my dog to attack people, but it attacked the police and got killed, and a bystander threw up when she saw that and screamed about how horrible it was. Sometimes you will see people get in a fight that you are uninvolved with (like in GTA), and it can be pretty funny. Certain people will kick the police when they are killed, others will accuse you of attacking them because they are minorities, and a stereotypical convenience store owner apparently has an Al Qaida cell in his back room. I also like the idea of using cats as silencers, though I haven’t found the catnip yet so I haven’t done it yet.
I’d say the funniest game I have ever played was probably Fallout 2. I still haven’t played Fallout, yet. I can’t find it for sale by itself and I refuse to buy a second copy of Fallout 2 when I already paid full price for it. Illogical, but true.
Your urine regenerates pretty quickly. I always have enough.
The stungun also recharges, which makes it one of my favorite weapons - non-lethal, doesn’t attract too much attention, has varying effects based on how big a shock you give the person (let it uncharge fully and they will be curled up in the fetal position gagging and pissing themselves), and you can use it as much as you like.
Firearms are unimpressive. Most armed enemies take a huge amount of damage to kill, which I guess helps the challenge but hurts the suspension of disbelief. Unarmed civilizans usually die pretty easy. I would like to see a game like this with the GHOUL engine from Soldier of Fortune 2 - it would work well with this game, the way the head was made of something like 12 removable internal and external segments. It made every partial decapitation different. Unfortunately, in Postal 2 there isn’t much in the way of gore. You can cut a head off and kick it around, and it will leave blood-splats wherever it hits the ground, but you can’t blow off any other limbs. Sometimes you can also explode a head. You can’t gib a persons body, but if they burn to death they look fairly realistically charred and leave blood streaks when you kick them around. I haven’t found the grenades yet but from what I’ve read they just knock people around.
