Top 7 Video Game Mods: V-LIST #6


2m read
·Nov 10, 2024

How's Vau doing? Michael here, and today I'm talking mods. Not console mods, though; this guy who just freaking microwaved his PS3 deserves an honorable mention. Instead, I'm talking about modifications of games. I'm going to start with Grand Theft Auto—not the car gun, but this vehicle mod that gives Nico a skateboard.

Here's a combination of the two games I've dedicated most of 2010 to: World of Warcraft models in Starcraft 2. Notice the health bars in the click to move? Love it! Let's rewind to Myth 2. I couldn't find any video of this mod in action, but it represents a history nerd angle that I love. It's called Blue versus Gray—no, not Red versus Blue, Blue versus Gray. It allows you to fast forward the game from medieval times to the American Civil War.

How about this modding Mass Effect 2 so that Shepard is a girl? See, it's a nice equal opportunity mod. Of course, it also allows famous scenes like this to become, well, different. The original Unreal Tournament was the first game I played secretly without parental approval. Point is, I love this mod of the PS3 version of Unreal Tournament 3. It lets you play as Halo's Master Chief.

But why stop there? The more layers of modness, the better! So why not put Halo 3 in Unreal Tournament and then stick the whole thing inside a sidescrolling Super Mario Brothers game? This is like digital turducken. While we're talking Super Mario, here it is: a first-person game with a map made in Half-Life 2. Not enough freedom? Well, let's put Mario in Vice City.

The mod that impresses me the most is this Simpsons map for Quake 3. It's super famous because the attention to detail is incredible, and it doesn't stop with the interior of the house either. So that's my list. There are so many other great mods out there. I would love to hear back from you guys. Tell me what your favorites are and let us know where we can get them and/or see them in action.

These aren't mods at all; they're just people doing what the game is for, but they're neat enough I had to include them. You know, things like this luxury vehicle from Little Big Planet or this guy who is building a working 16-bit arithmetic computer inside Minecraft. Yes, he's building a computer inside a video game on his computer.

Want something bigger? Well, how about this guy? He's building a 1:1 scale model of the Enterprise in Minecraft. Yes, that's right—1:1 actual size! He's got the entire frame finished, but he's looking for people to help him finish the decks. You can check him out in his channel by following a link in this video's description.

I've also put links to all of these mods in action there. Stay tuned Friday for a special countdown from Wacky Gamer of the top fall games. Until next time, thanks for watching! [Music]
