Day 45 - Best game mod: Red Orchestra


Being primarily a PC gamer, I've tried dozens, if not hundreds of mods. I mean, PC gaming, right? Modding is what we do. And while Western Quake 3, The Specialists mod for Half-Life and quite a few others will always hold a special place in my gaming heart of hearts, none has dominated me quite as much as Red Orchestra. An uber-realistic (as far as games go) first person team-based WW2 shooter, Red Orchestra didn't offer crosshairs, medpacks or killing spree bonuses. It only offered death. But, oh, what fun it was. It has since won the "Make Something Unreal" contest and gone commercial, but its best moment, to me, remains the one just before it did.
