All-Time Highest Rated Games Tagged 'mods, HL2' on The Great Games Experiment http://www.greatgamesexperiment.com/css/logo.jpg en-us Mario Kart Source aims to bring the fun and excitement of the Mario Kart series to the PC though the powerful Source engine used in Half Life 2. We hope to create the ultimate version of Mario Kart (MK) by combining all of the best aspects into one game. We're not simply recreating one version of MK, but using the best parts of each. We want to have all the traditional weapons, characters, and maps but also bring out new weapons that make game-play interesting. We're redesigning the maps so that they keep their appeal, but truly utilize the power of the source engine. We plan to have at least 16 different characters, all the ones you know and love as well as some others from the Super Mario World.

Players build bases and other structures with blocks and plates in the "build phase" to protect themselves and their team's flag (which is actually a ball), and then fight it out and try to capture the enemy's flag in the "combat phase". Once the combat phase has ended, it's back to build, where players can repair, improve, and change their creations to ready them for the next combat phase.

]]> 18 Feb 2007 01:42:37 In the early 1950s human genetics experimentation was taking its first, tentative steps. Amongst other black projects, a team of British scientists working at an Infinitum Research experimental station stumbled across some remarkable phenomena involving DNA manipulation. This led to deeper research with dangerously unpredictable results, leading to human patients losing their lives in irresponsible and immoral experiments.

By the 90s the failure rate was low enough for Infinitum to move onto the next stage: Biological Light Refraction. The team were hoping to unravel the possibilities of light manipulation to create the perfect covert military agent. Due to a gross miscalculation, a series of tests on Subject 617 led to massive synaptic trauma leaving the patient with multiple genetic anomalies. Left in constant pain and with unstable DNA, 617 escaped captivity, killing anyone that got in his way. The I.R.I.S. (Infinitum Research Interception Squad) team have been deployed to return the subject to a maximum security Infinitum Research facility for further study and dissection.

Subject 617, known as 'The Hidden', must turn the tables and become the hunter instead of the hunted, as the I.R.I.S. team close their net around him.

Note: Half-Life 2 required.

The Bad News : The genetic manipulation has given Subject 617 enhanced speed, mobility and incredible strength - he can pounce like a tiger, cling to any surface and is known to pin victims up for feeding. Worst of all, the experiments have rendered him nearly invisible to the human eye. This is why he is simply known as ... The Hidden

- 3 distinct character classes for the 3 sides, each boasting its own form of combat and natural skills.

- Dark, mysterious maps with superb lighting effects, dangerous chokepoints, excellent ambiance and the constant fear of the unknown.

- 3 distinct factions: The Order, the faction made up of holy men trying to expell vampires from the world; The Vamin, a technologically superior race of vampires utilizing superior ranged weaponry and advanced suits of armor; The Absentis, an exclusively melee faction that utilizes stealth, speed and supernatural abilities to vanquish its enemies.
