[page=Introduction]
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!!!
[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!
[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.
[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!
[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!
[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!
Hammy, nice job on MOTM, it's well deserved ;) :D
if you do implement any new gameplay styles, Id recommend king of the couch and official guinea pig farming ;) :lol:
good luck with future versions, I love playing this game!!!

:D thanks for the comments everyone!
scott-yes hammy-bob mod almost joined the dead mods until i found modDB :D! so thank you very much!!!!!!
good job hammy-bob, you deserve the award :)
Congrats :D
....
:(
Congrats also :D
Ahh.... come on! make GA motm :(
Would be cool to have that trophy on my website :D
Anyway enough sad smileys here, LET's PARTY!!!
:P
good job hammy, you deserve the award! :)
I dont get wats great .. or infact new about this mod its just a poorly reskinned HL. with a few code changes to give people loads of weapons ..??
Thats the point. Its a fun mod, and GRAPHICS AREN'T EVERYTHING. :P
its FUN!!! U can do loads of things, like Guinea pig farm, Crate test, Dinamite Stairs, its realy teh best...
how the hell does this get mod of the month? i know a LOT of mods that bust their ***** 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.
great job... keep the good work up :)
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 :).
just beause mods bust *** doesnt mean their serious
This mod is ******* great, i love creating huge towers of dyanamite and watching them go BOOM :D or making lazerboom hell, putting so many trip mines around the place, HOW CAN YOU HATE THIS MOD? :D its farkin awesome and so fun, forget serious mods :D PLAY HAMMY BOB MOD!!!!
Plus it's original. All the MOTM from PHL are CS clones.
Not only that but Hammy-bob spawned a cult of silly mods.
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,
GJ
oh and forgot: there have been plenty of "silly" mods before hammy bob,
AKA:
Buzzy Bots
Rocket Crowbar
Scientist Hunt
PVK
FBBW
Boxwar
need i go on
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.
If only there was a server up.... :(

:D well thanks, also about the server well i just dont have the money to run one but anyone willing to run one for free should contact me ;)!
Same with GargArena :(
Well at least it's still good for lanparties :D
Too bad I don't know of any lanparties.
SAuCY is too scared to list Global Warfare, Front Line Force, FireArms, Solo Operations, Operation: Crape Diem, Operation: Red Falcon, etc...
Who is SAuCY ?

I 100% Agree with SAuCY... a lot of mods work their arses off just to get recognised... when some other mod gets mod of the month because them themselvesm have more friends.
No, the mod reaches the goal to be the most funny, and it is.
you think i havent worked hard to make this mod!?! I have worked very hard on this mod...i have had to deal with flamming,team memebers leaving, no coders, errors...etc..etc everything you big name mods go through...the fact that a comical like this has lasted for well over a year is amazing!
SAuCY: just because other mods work there ***** off working in useless features doesnt mean fun mods dont work there ***** 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.
thank you azz0r :D!!!!!!!
Hmm.,. another month...
i swear if another person insults this mod, ill jus come after u and flame u till ur dead...

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 :)
yup anofer month :D i hope its still there when beta 2 comes out :D
