Ok, why didn’t anybody tell me that there’s a Goldeneye mod for Half Life 2 in production? Not just in production either, it’s in Beta 3. Check out this trailer:

If you played as much Goldeneye for the N64 as I did when you were younger, you’ll probably need to clean the drool off your keyboard now. All I can say is this: DO WANT.

Check out the official website here.

THREEEEEEEEEDOG, Bethesda released the Garden of Eden Creation Kit (G.E.C.K. ) for PC players, the G.E.C.K. is basically a developer kit that gives players access to game tools so that they may create their own content for the game.

Woo! Bethesda would have made a pretty grave error if they decided not to release it. I mean, yes, Fallout 3 is a great stand-alone game but with the addition of the modding community, this game can become much more than it currently is. I mean look at Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, the game itself was mediocre at best, but once combined with the modding community, Oblivion changed for the better, adding new quests, new factions, new places, and revamping many of Oblivion’s systems for the better.

So my question to you, the readers, is what would you like to see in terms of mods for Fallout 3?

Personally I think one of the musts is more radio stations, because I’d love to get more music while I’m kick some ass in the wastelands.

Weapons? I’d like to see some unique guns, nothing from anime or from movies, something original maybe even more realistic, something that really bugged me in Fallout 3 was that the upgraded versions of normal weapons looked the exact same as the normal weapons. You know like I went to get the Terrible Shotgun, I found it, equiped it, and it’s the exact same. I thought with a name like TERRIBLE Shotgun you’d have skulls hanging off it or at least some kind of design on it. With the addition of the G.E.C.K. to the game, this will most likely be fixed in no time.

Places? Eh, I’d like to see a new town, or maybe a stronghold. Yeah, a stronghold of robots, that after the apocalypse decided to rebel against man and start anew. Kind of building on that A.I. side quest.

As for general improvements, I’d like to see a bit of color added to the wasteland. I know apocalypse setting = auto brown and gray but it’d be nice to see a bit more variety, because when I’m strolling around, exploring, and listening to some Butcher Pete, I’d like to see more than rock, rock, rock, more rocks, highway, rock.

I’m happy to know that within a few weeks of months, Fallout 3 will be much improved.

So what about you? What’d you like to see?
