Recently (and randomly may i add) decided to check out some Mods for the games i currently own, and after seeing a couple Half Life 2 mods on the Front page, i decided to start looking all over for complete ravamps such as G-String and Underhell (G-String is my #1 Favourite mod as of current). Just a random brit that loves gaming really, and testing out other developers mods of course! Recently finished/completed: G-String Currently on: Random Quest Next Mod to play: TBD

G STRING

Mod review may contain spoilers

Recently finished the mod, or should i call it a game due to how amazing it felt to play as the little Myo Hyo roaming ToykoTwice, tired of the way of life. The game itself is simply..awe-inspiring. The use of Jpop at certain intervals, the slow-mo fighting scenes (Especially as the We want your soul soundtrack starts blasting) felt like no other game play to date. There was a scene where i accidentally hit the Slow-mo on a level 3 complex map to see a bad guy slowly fall down to my left as i defended myself from multiple directions. It was..glorious.

The odd issues where you had to jump to move, where a plant pot could kill you and a book could kill Ted Murdock by throwing it at him (which was hilarious) weren't an issue for me. I can understand a mod that big (over 3GB) would have some issue's here and there which don't bother, a rating of 10 can show that but i have some issues with the story.

Who is this Myo Hyo? From the game we know she's 18, Red hair with a Korean descent, she's extremely dangerous which becomes more apparent as you play the game how powerful you become, she is unable to speak (That being from being beaten by her mother as a child or being a born condition, we're not told) We even know what type of suit she wears, but that's where it ends. After that I'm still asking myself.. WHO is Myo Hyo? I don't see backstory other than bits of information passed around. Secondly WHO or WHAT are the voices that guide and break me, who is that female who tells me to do good, and then the other female telling me to embrace my evil side? (Ted Murdock, to fire or not to fire moment) Who is the male telling me to stop every 2 minutes and go back?

WHY does she randomly get teleported around at the ending, to be told by the wonderous female voice to go back home? Why go to sleep? Why does she i don't know..implode with light taking the city down with her? Was it all a dream in the end? If so..what was the point of the game? To die in your bed? Overall 10/10!

Water

Mod review

Just finished this mod and found myself pleasantly surprised. The fact that you managed to design it in the way you have from a HL2 engine just blows me away completely. The more into Water i got, the more i found myself wanting to play. I spent a solid 3/4 hours exploring, doing all the little quests that came along with it unable to find myself bored in the slightest. You have two thumbs up from me with a nice rating of 9. Reason for this being the length of the mod itself, yes the 'short stories' give it away a little but i longed for more so much i could easily see myself purchasing a full version game of this. Maybe in the next update, you could start a story off about how Water meets Air? Maybe Fire could come back somehow, seeing as how she's a Goddess, if only in spirit? Anyway, Keep up the good work!
