Garry's Mod - £2.99

Gimpymoo · 14 Sep 2009 at 21:35

Heads up.

Currently half price at £2.99.

This warrants a purchase from me... maybe get some OcUK games going for some serious LOLs.

Ant123 · 14 Sep 2009 at 22:03

Good price. Too bad I already own it

gord · 14 Sep 2009 at 22:04

Hmmm.. i did loves it when it was free..

Had mega fun building all sorts..

_Gizka_ · 14 Sep 2009 at 23:22

Ive already got it and its a blast! Excellent for £2:99 I must say, although much better when it was free!

Twas good fun building contraptions, until they spazed out

cluster rockets were always good fun

For £2.99, I'd probably re-buy it.

It's easily the most innovative third party mod for Half Life 2 I've played, and when playing with the right people (you know who you are

), quite probably the most fun.

YES!

Thanks for the heads up dude.

Absolute bargain, there is thousands of hours worth of fun to be had here.

I don't go online much because I mainly pose ragdolls, but we should get some OcUK contraptions going.

Oh and hearing that gmod is now £2.99, the TF2 team put aside their differences and have a shindig

I love gmod.

Used to be a free mod for HL2. Still is but only really really good. The funny TF2/HL2 pics you see on the net have all been created with this mod. It also allows for game mode creation etc. Fun to play around with.

EDIT: Oh the game/mod is a sandbox gametype. Letting you **** about with stuff.

My Understanding is that allows you to do ANYTHING with ANYTHING from the Source engine environment, which Inludes:

Half Life 2
L4D
TF2
Portal

www.hlcomic.com to see what it is capable of

This got me through my first year of work lol

billyboyd · 15 Sep 2009 at 07:02

Wow good price, too bad i already got it too.

One of those programs you can lose hours with, highly recommended for those that haven't got it.

Azza · 15 Sep 2009 at 07:05

Def going to buy it.

Used to play it round at my friends for hours, completely forgot about it.

spydermixx · 15 Sep 2009 at 07:52

Thanks for the heads-up on this, I've been thinking about buying it for ages, even more so after I read the feature in the last PC Gamer. Can't wait to have a crack at that spaceship building mod!

Garrys Mod is brilliant, I'm not overly great at coming up with original stuff so I tend to get guides off the net on how to build stuff and just go to town.

My favorite so far is a car that can clime up walls and my enemy tracking killer turrets.

I am now working on the comibining the two into a wall-climing-enemy-tracking-killer turret-car.

I will call it Lenny.

Recomended mods include.

Spacebuild/Life support/Resource Distribution

Wire Mod (lets you make circuits of...well insane complexity)

Auto-Snap (for attaching things together at exact angles)

Those are my personal top mods but there are literaly thousands more.

Just bought it and hopped on - SP is fun for a bit but MP is rather overwhelming and pretty annoying when you have to sit there for 15 minutes downloading 856 required files

FrenchTart · 15 Sep 2009 at 15:05

Buying this I think
