    Underrated, unadultered masterpiece! Running With Scissors title Postal 2 provides choice. You can play through without using any violence or be as violent as you want.

    Uber violence! Those guys who gave it a zero obviously don't like computer games, don't like having fun and don't like mindless violence. There's nothing quite like smashing a cow's head in with a sledgehammer!

    Final boss, not so braindead to kill. Nice weapon additions. And the zombies are quite an adversary, but it turns out as too lineal. No free-roam like the original Postal 2, making it quite less than it could have been. And it appears to be shorter in terms of play time. Wait for the bargain bin, then make sure you pick it.

    A good addition to a great game, unfortunately it was very linear compared to Postal 2, but some people prefered it that way, and as usual its full of postal's fun moments.

    The only thing i hate is the fact you cannot free roam, other than that the added weapons and feature are epic that i could play this game for hours even though i agree that Postal 2 was a bit better

    If you enjoyed Postal 2, you will probably like this expansion as well. There's no free-roam in AW but, new weapons are really great. And also weapons are not only new thing. Fully destroyable bodies, you can dismember every single limb of your enemies, normal NPCs or ZOMBIES. Yes i said zombies, you can kill zombies with most brutal ways, hammer, saw, sickle, machette, deodorant andIf you enjoyed Postal 2, you will probably like this expansion as well.

    And if you have "A week in Paradise" mod, it adds AW weapons and fully dismemberment feature to original Postal 2 game. It totally worths it. If you never played postal2, or played it a long time ago, grab a new copy from Steam. Play it again. After all these years, i still playing it and i still think it's one of the best games ever.    … Expand

    Lacking the charm and open ended feel of Postal 2, Armageddon Weekend does salvage some points for adding two wonderful new weapons, the boomerang machete and the sledgehammer. Otherwise, it feels like an amateur mod. No upgrades of graphics or sound. Only a few new voices added (the Taliban yell in the old familiar Paradise resident voice!). More of a joke than an add-on.

    A silly little game in my opinion. Graphic ugly, not to mention textures .

    Вообще треш какой-то. Если основная игра была наполнена хоть каким-то смыслом, то дополнение сделано с упором в безудержное безумие.

    I think that apocalypse weekend isn't as good as just normal postal (Monday to Friday) but I think it is fun and entertaining none the less an improvement is that there are different types of enimies not just humans, dogs, and cats instead now we also have zombies, gary coleman's and cows this mode is a must play if you own postal 2 just please play it it's also pretty funny too

    When the cats start to rain from the sky and you do more of the absurd quests you are just destined to have great (and insanely disgusting) time.

    It's not bad, however it is a step down coming from postal 2 and paradise lost.

    It’s a mild diversion when it works, crude and shoddy the rest of the time. The game’s fate is sealed by a simple realization: you need Postal 2 to play it. Movies like "Plan 9 From Outer Space," at least, don’t require a copy of "Glen or Glenda" to watch them.

    With smartly designed levels and a variety of tasks, there are much worse ways to spend a weekend. Don't expect the trimmings of a big-budget title, but it's a bloody, twisted good time to those who are neither squeamish nor easily offended.

    The problem with Apocalypse Weekend is that it lacks the cleverness and thoughtful execution that made the original worth laughs. [Oct 2005, p.72]
