After playing through a few hours of HL2, I can't help but think back to a single-player mod for the original HL called They Hunger. It was brilliantly designed, and I had as much fun playing it as I did the original HL, despite it's shorter length and 3 episodes dispered across a few years. It was a mod built upon the genres of horror and suspense, throwing back homage to old classic scary movies....

Was wondering if anyone else played this mod for the original HL, or felt the similarities, specifically in Ravenholm.

This is the funniest thread title I've seen tonight. Then again, I'm very tired.

I played the hell out of those Mods... and it's the first thing I thought of when I saw the title. I can recall the voice perfectly. I can't remember who PC Gamer contracted to build them those mods, but he was pretty famous IIRC. I want to say Manske, but I'm not sure.

Wasn't it Manke? I remember that the series and the space station mod were well crafted and conveyed great atmosphere, They hunger was pretty scary. Good god that was back when I read PC Gamer.

yeah, I'm hoping he starts working on a mod for HL2. They Hunger was an awesome SP mod... one of the best, if not the best. I liked his space station one, too, but I forget what it was called. The only other HL SP mods that I think can really compare (and aren't quite as good, but are pretty fun) are Azure Sheep and Point of View.

edit: and Sweet Half-Life, like the mod says, it's pretty sweet.

I can't wait for the new mods for HL2, and by new mods I mean NOT CS or DoD or any of the "mainstream" stuff that have effectively become part of HL's main stable of features.
