Sweet.... i have been dying for a pure zombie-horror game. The best i have seen so far is the They Hunger mod for Halflife. not PURE zombie, but very close. It was actually inspired bu NOTLD.

Funny story:
I like the movie a lot, but i have never played RE. I want to, would love to play them all. Just havent. Weird huh? If you have a computer and half-life, download they hunger (it has 3 episodes), it is well worth it. I will get you alink if you would like.

Vod, I took your advice and d/l'd the "they hunger" mod which you linked in abnother thread after seieng some screenshots that looked pretty fucked up...unfortunately I don't have the latest version of half-life myself....do I have to buy a new one or can I d/l such updates?
I also saw on some links to other pages n stuff there's LEAGUES of half-life conversions and mods...have you played any of the other ones?
I wanted to check out one that apparently takes place during the incidents of the first game, but you're some janitor guy...?

Here is the latest update:

http://www.fileplanet.com/download.aspx?f=57317

Looks like gamespy has a Australia/New Zeland DL server so it shouldnt take too long.

The official expansions are as follows:

Opposing force: You play a member of the Special Forces team sent in to clean up Black Mesa.

Blue-Shift: You play Barney, one of the security guards.

both are good, both were put out by Gearbox, so they are very consistent. they also overlap with scenes from the original, which is cool.

Counter-Strike is a "relaxed-reality" reality mod with terroristst vs counter terrorists. it is currently and has been for years) the #1 played online multiplayer game ever. it is awsome, i love it.

Day of Defeat is another very popular multiplayer mod, it is based on ww2.

There are also Team Fortress CLassic and FireArms, plus Death0match classic (a quake-themed multiplayer mod for hl)

there are tons and tons more. Natural selection is another big one, as is Sven-coop. most i have played (all of the above at some point) and all are good so far.

I meant more around the way of single player campaign mods, levels and conversions...official or otherwise, yknow, the ones "other" ppl make. Different storylines and all.

Single-player became a bit rare once counter-strike took off. Everyone wanted to get on the multiplayer bandwagon.

i will track some down for you though. i 'll get you links too.

Thanks man....
Not that I think I'll ever actually come across it again, one I never got tp play was a total conversion for doom (2 I think) based on ALIENS?
Ever hear of that one?

Not sure. there was one for quake at one point. a lot of mods like that were "Foxed".... BAsically, 20th century fox slapped the makers with "Cease and desist" orders becaus ethey were using their copywrited material :rolleyes:

Counter-strike has 60,000 players online worldwide at any given moment. It beats everquest. Counter-strike is basically free, so it is easier to get, and has almost no learning curve.

There's a game coming out (forget when) for I think the PS 2 called 'Zombie' and the entire game is running away from and hunting zombies!

A GOOD zombie FPS with great atmosphere, a soundtrack that rocks out (think Painkiller but better), Genuine CHILLS and at least a few WEIRD improvisational weapons, that is all I can ever hope for...

I would like to see this, but have it be a Third Person Shooter, with a lot of jumpy stuff (like RE2), Psychobilly playing the whole time. But everything else the same

I still stand by my love of the FPS, so in my perfect game, that would be the go...however, it would be WAY cool if they actually bought out a game that let you choose your perspective...perhaps it could switch, like, FPS when you had projectile weapons, and 3rd person if it came down to hand-to-hand or melee, of course you'd have to have a totally cool fighting system...auto-aiming ability for their various body parts.
Full 7.1 sound compatability to immerse yourself...
I want axes, loose bricks, baseball bats, mops, zombies that move differently on the basis of what kind of injuries they sustained before death (I wanna see tire tracks on at least one), walkers, runners, crawlers with no legs, zombies that are dead children, animals ASIDE from birds and dogs...and I want them to keep coming at you until you like, TOTALLY fuck them up, and weapons, I want 'em to be able to use simple weapons.
I wanna loot shops for weapons, I wanna cut arms and legs off to see the zombies still dragging themselves after you leaving gory trails of blood guts and even decomposing trails of rancid shit, I wanna beat a head in with a tyre iron, climb through cars and slam body parts in the doors - I can just see zombie eyeballs popping out if their heads get it...Man, pitchforks, acid filled water balloons, kitchen knives, broken off car doors, hammers WHATEVER - the ability to make and place traps would also be awesome...and at least one scene set in a hardware store, just imagine the improv. weapons potential in there...
How I wish I knew SHIT about making games...

Cheeba, have you seen any of the clips from half-life 2? The zombies can be chopped in half, and there is one scene in one of the huge movies where they are using that "manipulator" gun to grab circular-saw blades and shoot them at zombies. it is beautiful :)
