A Look At Successful Game Mods

Posted by Soulskill on from the what-no-rocket-arena? dept.

Parz writes "Mods have been an important part of gaming for well over 15 years. Not only have they provided plenty of additional free gaming to players, but they've acted as a launch pad for independent and amateur programmers to show off their skills to potential employers. This Gameplayer article highlights the programmers who are doing it best, and what mods have made biggest and most enjoyable impact on gaming. The article not only provides details for each game, but also links to the downloads, and is a great resource for those interesting in getting up-to-date with this exciting scene." Obviously, this list will seem incomplete to anyone whose favorite mod was omitted. What mods contributed most to your enjoyment?

      Look... I enjoyed blowing away that purple monstrosity as well. But I'd hardly call Barney DOOM "porn."

    hate to be a wet blanket, but you just breached the site's copyright by posting the whole article

    It's the no click spam ad mod. Lots of ads is fine, lots of clicks, less so. Lots of clicks just to get lots of ads... not so much.

    Legal, yes, nice no.
