@WCK619 I understand that there are many games built on the same engine and that that doesn't really make them all mods.....except this is a mod. It's a free modification based on the source engine. It's a modification of any source based game. You must own a source game to play the modification. By your definition most mods for Half-Life 2 are not actually mods, which is absolutely asinine.And your generalization that all indie games are crap is as ridiculous as saying that all games are all crap because some of them are. You accuse people of using ad hominems but you fail to recognize the fallacies in your own arguments (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hasty_generalization). Even if you don't enjoy playing indie games only a ignoramus would argue that the indie development community hasn't made significant innovative and artistic contributions to gaming as a whole.

@WCK619 @crazylooser2003 They're only sheep if they don't stop and truly think about why they agree.

@WCK619 @maddogmark25

You're right his statement was an ad hominem. If we go by the assumption that many COD gamers lack experience with a wide variety of games and tend to make stupid statements about things they've only just heard of (which in my experience is true), it does seem fair to make that assumption given your apparent lack of knowledge.A mod requires a game, yes, but a mod that attempts to remake a game (in whole, part, or spirit) will basically never use the same game engine because if it did the mod would be completely pointless. Case in point: The Dark Project, which is a Thief game being built using the Doom 3 engine. The majority is certainly not always right, but the fact that virtually everyone in this thread is calling you variations of the word "moron" or liking comments to that effect should make you at least stop and reevaluate your position.

Unless of course you truly are a moron, in which case you wouldn't do that.

@WCK619 @Tank_Buster

It's not a mod of the original game and you truly are a moron. It's a source mod, meaning you need to own a game with the source engine to play it. And you're an even bigger moron for believing that indie=crap.

@WCK619 LOL. Moron.

This is fantastic news. I hope they increase the draw distance as well as HD-ifying it.

It's so good to see Aliens divorced from Predator. This looks so much more interesting (and nostalgic) than AvP.

@FkThisName How do you figure? I don't get that feeling at all.

@wizardboyus There's only so much you can do to make snow look more detailed.

@FlameBeast4000 "When the Wii was released Nintendo said they left out HD for two reasons: to keep the price low and to accommodate the many people who didn't yet have HD TV's (quite a few at the time)." I'm a longtime Nintendo fan AND a disappointed Wii owner. Let me first say that this is by no means the biggest problem with the Wii, but those excuses for not having HD support are very poor. Supporting HD graphics has no negative affect on owners of SDTVs and If Nintendo really wanted to keep the price ridiculously low and completely undercut the competition, they could have launched the console with a price below cost like the majority of consoles in the last 20 years.
