ya halo but others?

Post by sniperwolf »

we all realize Halo is a Gateway to modding and screwing around with the systems and programs :twisted: but what about all the other games.No one talks about them, now why is that?I wanna see more of my favorite games being modded like halo.

That's because all u do is look for halo :roll:

There's plenty of other games being modded and talked about for instance HL2.... and ton's of other less mainstream games.

Well, not every game gets a 'custom edition' version released. Although many do have modding SDK's. Some of the big mod-able games are Half-Life 2 and Battlefield 2. I would say that the biggest difference is that Halo is more basic, and in many cases easier; whereas in HL2 or BF2 you can really get your hands dirty and write code to fundamentally alter the gameplay and engine.

Software Developer Kit. It's basically a 'package' that is used for development of all kinds of things, in this case to modify games.

Counterstrike Source! FTW :P
Garrys Mod 9 FTW :P

Those are my altime favorites for modding, they are so much better than Halo. I just finished making my own animation of a Strider dancing and I'm importing it into Half Life 2 tomorrow maybe.

Wouldn't be worth the money on buying a chip for the Sims.

1:your crazy,The Sims is awsome
2:it's worth it if you already have a modded xbox
3:Sims is a bit constricting so to be able to break outside of the game bariers would be sweetness in a bowl with sugery products on top.

I hate sim games, all of them, Sim City, Sim coaster, sim everything. Well Sim city isnt bad, but the rest are pretty boaring and pointless.

But I'll stop cause I don't want to piss anyone off. I think the best modding game is the Valve games (Ex: Counterstrike Source, half Life, Half Life 2, Counterstrike, etc). Its so awsome to work with, I've had a blast with it so far, theres things in htere that wouldn't be imagineable in Halo.
