** Halflife2 Mods Spotlight **
In Development:
7 Hour War - http://mods.moddb.com/4494 (not their actual website)

Description: Re-creating the Battletech experience from the "ground perspective", putting you in the shoes of a infantry soldier in the Battletech universe.
Black Mesa: Source - http://www.blackmesasource.com/

Description: Net-Gen Cyberpunk Mod
Curse- http://curse.hlgaming.com/
Description: Curse draws you into a completely new universe, where there is no technology, but Magic. You will experience new concepts and settings that are completely original, offering the best game play the Source engine can provide...we are putting the Source and Havok engines to the limits. Melee, magic, and the most intense fighting system for the computer to ever be built.
Dystopia - http://www.dystopia-mod.com/
Description: Dystopia is a Half-Life 2 modifcation which places the player into tense combat situations in a high tech world spanned by computer networks. As either Punks or Corp Mercenaries the player will fight through the physical world to gain access, via jack-in terminals, to cyberspace. Cyberspace is a three dimensional representation of the world's network. Inside cyberspace players will launch programs to hack into systems linked to the physical world, fight off enemy hackers or defend critical systems. Gameplay progresses through inter-linked physical and cyberspace objectives, some are completed in either the physical world or cyberspace, others only by a well timed combination of the two.
D.E.A.D - http://www.evildezignz.com/
Description: A multiplayer mod where there are two teams, one is composed of the living, the other which is dead. The undead in this mod will not be the shambling, stupid undead like you see in the movies, they are fast, smart and strong. It seems the undead in this mod will also be able to use weapons like the AK-47 and such. Makes you wonder if each side is differentiated only by cosmetics? Which also makes you wonder, what is the point?
Elite Partisan - http://www.elitepartisan.com/
Description: Elite Partisan is a HL2 Singleplayer and Multiplayer mod. Your a rebel fighting for survival until your life is threatened with a serious head injury. Your taken with the combines and will be transformed into a whole new species, The Combine. What is the partisan program? What is an Elite Partisan? Only the game will show.

The mod puts you in the role of a soldier helping to fight the war between the United Terran Forces (UTF) and Neo Galactic Militia (NGM). The mod allows for extremely open-ended gameplay, allowing you to fight fast-paced dog fights in space, bombard an enemy capital ship with a heavy payload, invade the enemy capital ship by foot and attack from the inside, or command the troops and claim victory over your foe.
Era of Legends - http://eol.fragism.com/
Description: Era of Legends is set in the popular Fate Sworn universe, the universe in which the Half-Life modification Mastersword was set. Era of Legends is a Persistant Role-Playing Game, in which you create a character and explore the gameworld either offline or online, selecting a class and skills and levelling your character up through the acquisition of experience earned by completing quests, killing monsters, and discovering new locations. Seems like a fairly ambitious project, let's hope it retains longevity.
Evolution - http://evolution.teamexp.net/

Fortress Forever - http://www.fortress-forever.com/
Description: Fortress Forever is a Team Fortress mod for Half-life 2's Source Engine. Our independent team is creating this mod entirely from scratch.

Description: Goldeneye experience on Source. Looks good.
HEAT - http://www.heatmod.com/
Description: HEAT is a team-play oriented tactical shooter set in a modern and urban environment realized on the source engine. We try to give the game a good mix between realism and gameplay, although HEAT is going to contain more realism than most modifications, which call themselves realistic.
HoldOut - http://www.hl2holdout.com/
Description: Half-Life 2 Hold-Out will be the ultimate survival mod for Half-Life 2. Period. You will be part of a team, and if your not, well, your already dead. In Hold-Out the entire team is trying to defend a bunker, whether it be a restaurant with some sandbags thrown around it, or an encamped abandoned building, its your home, and its the only place you really want to be. Why? Because your not going to like going outside for very long. You will be rewarded bigger guns, better acuracy, faster running, more damage, etc etc etc, based on how many of the enemies you can demolish. The waves will get increasingly harder, and a single split second decision can mean life or death for the entire team.
Hull-Breach - http://www.hull-breach.com/cms/news.php
Description: Project HullBreach is a massive modification project aiming to create a futuristic total conversion for the up and coming Halflife 2 engine from Valve Software - a unique approach to development, Hull Breach let the public participate in the design of the game which provided a great insight into what gamers did and didn't want.
