Gaming News - July 2003
Tucson, AZ (July 2, 2003) - Running with Scissors today announced that
their game Postal 2 will be featured in an upcoming music video.
From Running with Scissors:
“Shock and awe” videogame developer Running With Scissors is proud to
announce that game footage from their medley of malice POSTAL 2, is in the new
Black Eyed Peas hip-hop video, “Where’s the Love.”
The socially wrenching, thought-provoking video from the Canadian group also
features Justin Timberlake (who co-wrote the track) of ’NSYNC fame. The video,
from the Peas’ latest album, Elephunk, was released on June 24 to rave reviews.
"We be all up in tha love, fo'shizzle, and it be showin," flossed Vince Desi,
Running With Scissors' thug-ass G with good table manners and CHIC (Chief Homey
In Charge). "We be all 'bout raisin' up and makin' dis wizzle a better place to
live. Thaz why we made POSTAL 2 peep so much game, cuz if you be flyin' wid a
phat spliff, frontin' and maxin' up in to the machine, peepin' dis tight mofo of
a game, then dogg, you aint gonna be flippin' and flakin, straight pop'n caps on
some busta' whose all up in your digs fool."
At first it may seem a little unusual to POSTAL’s legions of fans (especially
when Boy Band star Justin Timberlake gets involved) to see actual gameplay
footage from their beloved hit PC game in a hip-hop video about love. But the
star of the game, the Postal Dude, is well known for spreading his love in some
unusual ways – like with gasoline as shown in the music video.
“Hell, it’s about time we all practice what we preach,” Desi observed from
his crib in smoking Tucson. “Stupid people do stupid things. The message here is
simple: stop bitch’n and blamin, and start bearin your own personal
responsibility for the crap you do in this world.”
