Postal 3
Postal 3: Catharsis, the third installment in the controversial shooter series is currently in development for PC and Xbox 360.
The controversial game follows Postal 2 which was recently made available for download. Postal 2 was a traditional 3D shooter and was based on the true story of an American postal worker who went crazy and slaughtered his collegues.
When CNN commented on the game they said '" Parents, politicians and religious leaders who say Rockstar Games'best-selling "Grand Theft Auto: Vice City" video game crosses lines of decency and good taste with excessive violence, sex and drugs will be just as unhappy, if not more so, with "Postal 2. It makes 'Vice City' look like a Disney cartoon"

The Postal series has included decapitation with shovels, arcade games that include slurs against gays and lesbians, Middle Eastern men are shown perusing bomb-making and terrorism books at the library (before opening fire with a machine gun), and the lead character can unzip his pants and mark his territory on just about anything. In game tasks include being treated for a sexually transmitted disease.
The information on Postal 3 was revealed in RWS's newsletter yesterday, although in depth details have not been revealed.
The film based on these events is due to be released in 2007 so the game may coiincide with the movie.
