<div class="IPBDescription">except NS :P</div> Lets make a good list of the best Half Life mods existing!
I really don't know much myself, but here is a small list

[SP] = Singleplayer mod
[MP] = Multiplayer mod

- They Hunger 1-2-3 [SP]
<a href='http://www.planethalflife.com/manke/' target='_blank'>Link to official They Hunger site</a>

- Todesangst 1-2 [SP]
<a href='http://www.planethalflife.com/todesangst/' target='_blank'>Link to official They Hunger site</a>

- Point of View [SP]
<a href='http://halflife.multiplayer.it/pov/' target='_blank'>Link to official Point of View site</a>

(I don't have much experience with [MP] mods..)
- NS [MP] [SP with bots] ( best mod I ever saw! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->)

a link to a (Dutch but readable for people that can read English) site with links to a lot of HL mods

    Heart of Evil is easily the best SP mod, ever. Its atmospheric, funny, and it has Vietnam with zombies. Also the voiceacting is top.

    I love firearms, day of defeat, natural selection (obviously), tfc, and counter-strike. Other mods that I enjoy to a slightly lesser extend are paintball mod, vampire slayer mod, wizard wars, master sword, and some hero/villain mod. I'd have to say my favorite is NS. In all my years of playing, I've never seen a mod with such imagination that has great gameplay, sound, levels, and community! The maps for natural selection maps are simply amazing due to the ambience they project into the player's mind. I LOVE THIS MOD!

    Damn, beat me to it.

    Don't forget Sweet Half-life, it's a very obscure mod that few people have played, but still awesomeness in it's most pure form. I can't post a link because it's obscurity is such that I can't even find it right now <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    [MP]Surprise! and/or it's origin, PS07. <a href='http://www.planethalflife.com/ps07' target='_blank'>http://www.planethalflife.com/ps07</a> works most of the time for surprise!, and <a href='http://www.ps07.com/' target='_blank'>http://www.ps07.com/</a> should be good for ps07. Although it's not the old ps07. Heck, check the forums in the first link alot and you should find the REAL ps07.

    While both are meant to be MP, you CAN play singleplayer if you want to - But it's more fun to play on your own in multiplayer maps with bots.


    On the same note as SweetHL, try to find "peaces like us"(or wca_hl).

    [MP] <a href='http://www.planethalflife.com/features/motw/rat.shtm' target='_blank'>Runaway Train</a> was a good mod several years ago, but the site doesn't exist anymore and I doubt the mod would be compatible with current versions of HL. I have fond memories of RAT at LAN parties...

    [MP]Boxwars.

    You are a box, so is everyone is else. The objective is to kill them. Use the level to your advantage.

    Hella fun <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo--> It's a deathmatch with a twist. The levels have so many boxes you'll want to cry. If you stand still you blend in nicely and you can wait for other players to come along (a moving box is kind of obvious <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->)

    [SP/MP] Scientist Hunt was very enjoyable... left quite an impression. I still love to quote the scientists today...

    "this is madness! I'm getting out of here!!"
    "Stop attacking! He's a friend!"

    someone should make a screen saver with scientists talking to each other... they rule.

    Gonna have to put a me too up on that one.

    And add this one:
    [MP]<a href='http://www.bgmod.com/' target='_blank'>The Battle Grounds</a>, where the weapons are only accurate enough to hit at spitting distance, reloading takes bloody ages, which you have to do after every shot. And yet its actually quite fun mod, set in the American Revolution.

    Call of Cthulu(SP)
    RocketCrowbar 2(MP)
    Chemical Existance(SP)

    Call of Cthulu is not a polished mod, but its quite intresting as it creates a story and feels like you playing through one.

    Rocket Crowbar 2 is a wee bit unbalanced right now, it its the successor to Surprise(PS07) and the original Crowbar. Play it if you want unique speedy action.

    Chemical Existance while old, can be compared on the level of Poke646 for polish. But it has a more retro/neopunk/underground style. The weapons are pretty polished too.

    So not-cool on the HL engine. Would make a great game, only on another engine.
