2004Īn updated version of POSTAL 2 called “Share The Pain” is released that includes new levels, code updates, faster loading times and the multiplayer patch. It is later displayed on the front cover of the ‘POSTAL Fudge Pack’ compilation. RWS immediately puts out a press release, wearing their “perfect score” like a badge of honor. POSTAL 2 receives the first ever “0” rating from Computer Gaming World magazine. The RWS team immediately starts development on a multiplayer add-on. POSTAL 2 is released by UK-based publisher WhipTail Interactive. The #1 child star in television history, Gary Coleman, is signed to play himself.

The US Postal Service filed a copyright suit over use of the name “POSTAL”. Panasonics label, Ripcord Games was summarily spun off into an independent publisher to handle POSTAL. The original POSTAL publishers parent company, Panasonic Interactive, got cold feet when Howard Stern mistakenly mentioned them by name during an on-air advertisement about the game. This only motivated RWS to be more relentless as it pursued its dream to be independent. POSTAL was banned in 14 countries and blacklisted in America. “The three worst things in American society are Marilyn Manson, Calvin Klein Underwear ads and the video game POSTAL.” RWS knew it was on the right track when Senator Joe Lieberman mentioned the game during a speech on the house floor of the US Senate. The hate mail was instant and almost more vicious than the game itself. POSTAL was released to the unsuspecting public. It set out to make a game that would live in infamy.

Running With Scissors was self funded and determined to be independent and free of pseudo-commercial creative development and hypocritical publishers. In 1996 the unforgettable and insurmountable Running With Scissors was formed. They wanted to stop riding the coattails of other franchises and leave their own mark permanently on the gaming industry. Although successful, many years of making tame children’s games and other games based on other company’s intellectual property became boring and Vince and some of his colleagues became restless.
