Welcome to the 7th Annual Mod of the Year Awards - the premiere event that celebrates the best creations within the modding and indie gaming scene. Developers have poured their blood, sweat and tears into creating new gameplay experiences that truly "change the game". Now its time for the gamers to voice
their opinions and select their top picks of the year.
From now until Feb 28th, the MOTY will present to you the cream of the crop for 2008 as voted by the public. The top mods and games will win the honors of being placed alongside other projects that have gone on to become commercial successes and cement their place in ModDB's hall of fame. And to the winner goes the spoils; ModDB has teamed up with a whole lineup of sponsors that have provided prizes ranging from software to servers to commercial engines. Everything to help budding developers excel at their craft.
ModDB Mod of the Year awards 2008 winners showcase, this time the editors choose the best indie game.
NO SPOILERS!!!
Indeed, please don't spoil in comments. That ruins everything :P
it deserves it
Big name game developers should be shamefully squirming in their shoes right now.
This year's winner has outclassed those turkeys in every single way. Whenever I recommend a new game to a PC owner, without hesitation it's this title. It's a pretty sad state of affairs in the Big gaming industry when I have to cite titles from the mid-90's that they last produced that are still worth playing and were breaking some worthy ground at the time of their release, even if their graphics "aren't up to par" to today's standards, as if "mind blowin' graphics" alone are what makes a title GREAT.
CONGRATULATIONS to this year's winner!
For those who haven't tried it, it truly is a PAINLESS endeavor to download the demo and then, if one so desires, pay a fee to unlock the game forever. Its modding community is immense and dedicated, so the replayability of this title is virtually endless (hey, it's practically endless in and of itself!).
Another wise choice by the Mod DB crew!
Agreed on every single point!
I should DEFINETELY tried a few of them. I've been already playing the one that one this awards and i give truth that it is quite awesome, realistic and challenging.
Warlord sounds good too. I'll probably download it when I have time.
I think IronGrip should have won, never played any of these games but IronGrip looked more intense/cool to play
you serious
I've been playing mount & blade for ages and im happy it won although i have never played any of the others so i'm not sure if there good or not.
