Welcome to the crazy world of Hammy-Bob Mod (Half-Life Modification). If your new to the mod of HBM then get ready for a mod that is a little different from its peers. While most of the modding community is working towards achieving realism the HBM team is working at making something unrealistic and funny. The fun doesn’t stop at the game play we have also changed many of the Half-Life sounds to fit more of a comical feel (for example: BA-BANG! For the shotgun). Most of the maps are different from each other in HBM because there is not set theme for the maps allowing us to produce a wide range of different types of maps. Possibly the most famous part of HBM is the many characters we have created for the mod and gives you a lot of choices on what you want to look like when your playing in a server. So download, laugh, enjoy. Weapons: 1. Fish - Primary: regular swing / secondary: Throw Fish 2. Cluster Grenade - Primary: throws a Cluster Grenade / Secondary: Throw the soda farther 3. Pist

Ready for some fun? Some Laughs? Hammy-Bob is your mod!

Ready for some fun? Some Laughs? Some ACTION? Can you handle that all at once? If you can, Hammy-Bob is the mod to play.
Hammy-Bob is the best comical mod for Half-life you can find today! Why is it funny? What makes it so fun? Read this Review and FIND OUT!!!

Feature Image

[page=The Game]
Hammy-Bob is a fantasic fun mod for anyone who wants to get away from realism and Counter Strike clones. Some of you are thinking,"NO REALISM DOES IT ALL!"
I'm sorry to say but your wrong. Hammy-Bob will definitely make you laugh really HARD while playing. Everything is original and is a piece of art, sorta.
Now you gotta keep reading!

Feature Image

[page=The Visuals]
The graphics in Hammy-Bob really give you the comical feel. Characters, Weapon skins, AND sprites are almost ALL replaced! The characters look very great. Tim Jim,
The Hammy-Bob mascot gives you the idea of what Hammy-Bob is gonna be like right away. So wacked mod! Tim Jim is the G-Man with a replaced face that makes him attractive.
That's right attractive! Just kidding, but hey, it looks awesome! There are more characters too! More characters calls for more Tim Jim looking things! Different Hairstyles and all!
Characters aren't the only thing wacked about this mod. The weaponary is pretty fine designed. Each is quite bizzare. What do i mean by bizzare? Well heres one quick idea, not half as bizzare as most of them.
The crowbar is just your ordinary crowbar...EXCEPT WITH A SCIENTIST HEAD ON IT!
muahahaha! Ok I'm done.

Feature Image

[page=The Sounds]
The Sound effects in Hammy-Bob are all originally created, the strange sounds you hear are from the crazy designer of the mod. What kind of sounds do you hear?
Sounds I cannot describe. The only way to tell for yourself is to download the mod for yourself! Strange screaming sounds, thats all i can say. Grab the mod to
hear them!

Feature Image

[page=The Gameplay]
Hammy-Bob unfortunately has only one gameplay mode, which is the downside for me. The game mode is Deathmatch. Not much to say about it, but its always fun
playing deathmatch with laughs!

Feature Image

[page=Final Word]
hammy-bob is for nearly anyone, from the Counter-Strike junkie, to the mod newbie. However, if you are heavy into realism mods, you
may not like hammy-bob's aproach to gameplay. But, I suggest you download it and give it a try anyway. With Beta 2 on the way, what
more can come from the minds of hammy-bob's team? Also this review goes to ShortCutMan for his great submission!

how the hell does this get mod of the month? i know a LOT of mods that bust their asses to push hl to its limits, and create the coolest new stuff in mods, vehicles, weaponry, etc. not going to mention anybody, but this , is a joke, amateur counter strike mock up mods are more appealing than this : disgusted.

anyone who flames it or says bad things about it have never played it, sure some mod teams work hard to push a mod to its limits but what about people like me that make something diffrent and fun. There are to many serious mods today and im proud to make a mod thats diffrent from the rest, not matter what anyone has to say about my mod :).

wow, since when is every mod on phl motm a cs clone, talk about sterotypes, lets take a look:

The Specialists
Point of View
Bumper Cars 1.1
Gladiator
Vampire Slayer 4.1
Science and Industry 0.97a
Earth Special Forces
The BattleGrounds
Natural Selection
Heart of Evil
Digital Paintball
Tour of Duty
Open Source JailBreak

i could go on, but none of these are CLOSE to counter strike,

Buzzy Bots wasn't quite silly, it just had the cartoonish look. Those other mods aren't quite as great as hammy-bob. And plus people still play hammy-bob, they dont play Scientist Hunt, or Boxwars. Hammy-bob shows quality work. Don't like the mod, please dont talk about it here.

SAuCY: just because other mods work there asses off working in useless features doesnt mean fun mods dont work there asses off either.

Making something fun is equally as hard as making something look spectacular. Theres alot of average good looking games and mods out there that may look sweet but arent attention keeping (chrome, chaser, sof2, etc) whereas hammy bob is centered around fast, fun and cheerful gameplay.

Keep your jealous hating comments to yourself.

that they see a mod that really proves everything donest have to be big and flashy and have the greatest graphics in the world to be fun, hammy-bob mod focus on being funny and making you have a good time instead of being depressing and making you angry when you play it. If you dont like it thats fine dont play but please dont flame it just because its diffrent its a excellent mod if you really think about it cause we really tried to do something diffrent not seen before and some people really like this and others hate it cause they just dont understand what the mods about :)
