A Day in GMod Tower
Posted on September 3rd, 2010 4 comments
What can I say about GMod Tower? Well, it has a really good effect for being drunk, that’s one thing. Not that I would know anything about being drunk, anyway. But I did spend a sizable amount of time stumbling around aimlessly vomiting on things. Which, for some odd reason, was way more entertaining than it had any right to be.

Mod Our Comments: More Mods for Game X!
Posted on June 24th, 2010 21 comments
Welcome back to another edition of Mod Our Comments! For those of you who missed out on last episode of our mad epopee to comment heaven, Mod Our Comments is our not-at-all-regular feature where we ask you, our ever dwindling but ever so awesome readerbase, what you think.
So, what is it this week? This week, we want to know what games you really, really wish had more mods – either because there was never an SDK, or because nobody realised how awesome the game was, or for any number of depressing reasons. So, tell us! Tell us of the opportunities lost, the mods left unfinished, and the hopes dashed against the harsh rocks of the internet waves. We want to know!

Welcome to Mod Our Comments! No idea what this is meant to be? Well good, nor do I. In this newest attempt at a weekly, regular column/idea/thing, we’re going to be asking you, our ever-so-precious readers, your incredible, sexy, ever-so-justified opinions, and hopefully it’ll degenerate into some sort of debate/flame war/internet trolling session.

This isn’t strictly on-topic, since the game that’s got me thinking isn’t actually a mod, but it is the spin-off of one, so sod it. Over at delightful sister site Resolution Magazine, Jennifer Allen’s been a-reviewin’ Heroes of Newerth, the standalone successor to Warcraft 3 mod Defence of the Ancients, which we included in our Unmissable Mods feature a while back. While being vaguely impressed by the game itself, her major turn-off was the community, which she describes as “frankly downright nasty”.
