12:43, Double Action: Boogaloo is actually heavily based on a old Half-Life mod called The Specialists. It was also a third person shooter and had crazy Matrix flips.
@@humanharddrive1 Boogaloo is perfectly fine and fun, it just never felt like The Specialists which as mentioned it's heavily based on (along with Action Quake/Quake 2/Half-Life etc.) and while when it first released had a ton of players, these days there's maybe 2 full servers on any given day if you are lucky. And it's funny, I literally played DA Boogaloo the other day, and reinstalled that standalone The Specialists you can get these days, and there were people still playing that! I couldn't believe itlol
12:40 _Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines_ had toggles for first and third person perspectives, with it always going into third person mode whenever fighting in melee combat (which is the preferred way to fight).
Tactical Intervention, it was one of the few times I ever bothered "getting good" at a competitive shooter. I LOVED that game, and the mechanics made you feel like you were working your way through a career. Having a dog was cool too.
The Ship is an excellent game. There are still a few active players but the master server is dead, so you have to look up a server online and add its IP manually. There are three servers that I know of. You can also play against bots, which can be really janky, but are sometimes terrifyingly human. One thing not mentioned are the secrets. There are 10 ships, all with a variety of secrets, ranging from paintings that slide aside to reveal a weapon, to full blown hidden rooms behind rotating bookcases. Finding all of them is a game in itself.
honorable mention to Neotokyo, a very cyberpunk/Ghost In The Shell inspired CS clone. servers are empty most of the time but the community manages to try and get a full server every friday, and not to mention the game's amazing soundtrack.
Also Dystopia, another very cyberpunk team FPS, but it's more objective based akin to any Splash Damage title like Wolfenstein Enemy Territory, or Brink.
Hey! Don't forget Eternal Silence. Literally nobody mentions that game. A mixture of cyberpunk/Sci fy game and while we are a it, a big shout out to From Earth. A very alien-like game that it is pretty much forgotten.
Rye Games did a pretty good video exploring old free games titled "Exploring the best free games you never heard of" and included Neo Tokyo. Iirc he had a lot of the regulars on when he played with his discord server. As soon as I saw this comment I had to hunt down the video to share here, highly recommended
Hi, I.R.I.S Edition Developer here, Hope you enjoyed playing the mod. Thanks for the kind words about it as well! Thank you for also reminding me about Tactical Intervention, It's been a long time. If you've not heard of Temporal Assassin then I'd suggest taking a quick little look if you're interested in more of me and my small group of nerds work. Stay safe and Thanks again!
I did some work in Double Action Boogaloo - I didn't make much but what I did was I modeled and textured the Colt 1911 (Stallion .45) handgun, and animated its single version viewmodel animations as well as the run cycle for the characters (Forward running cycle). Although they don't look that great, I was around 16 years old when I made the stuff you see here. Just wanted to say it's fun to see videos of DA:B even though it's dead, so thank you for making a video of Double Action: Boogaloo, hopefully this could potentially give some life back to the game.
Such a nostalgic throwback. A few more great ones to add to the list. Neotokyo - Counter Strike but set in a cool cyberpunk world with 3 classes each with their own ability one of my favourite mods Empires - A fun blend of top down strategy and FPS (I’d say nulcear dawn too but that was paid, one of my favourites though) Age of Chivalry - medieval class based team objective game Insurgency - the OG mod that was honestly a blast Dystopia - Never played it but heard great things
@@atsizbalik I dont know if it would count as "dead" tho. Sure it only has about 100-300 players now but in it's glory days it was well over 5000 which is not that bad for an indie Source game. The other games listed in the video however I literally haven't heard them in my entire life
I clicked this video on a whim and I have to say I'm in love with your editing style. It's fast-paced, engaging, and every character being presented as a funny cat really adds a flair of uniqueness.
You should cover Zombie Master, it was pretty unique for a zombie mod. One team is survivors trying to complete tasks in order to escape the map, the other team is 1 guy controlling zombies like it's an RTS. I still have fond memories of people blaring Rammstein over the mic as we tried to escape the Resident Evil underground facility map.
@@LiMpIcH I don‘t remember this quote, who said it? Btw. my ingame name was „Kaan“ for years. So if you or anyone else remembers please write me, maybe we can all connect and play again
I remember watching TheNerdCubed play "The Ship" back in the day. When i recently rewatched his videos on it, it baffled me that the game was made on Source. Great video by the way!
A fairly obscure, but very fun mod, was SourceForts, This mod had 2 teams construct their base's fortress during a timed build mode out of variously sized panels that could be frozen in place, after which was attack mode where you had to infiltrate the enemy base, steal, and capture their flag. It was effectively a Half-life 2 deathmatch mod with the weapons and skins straight from HL2, along with various classes. It was a chaotic game, most of the time both teams constructed a wall at the boundary line between the two bases and once attack mode started each team would bombard each other with grenades over the wall. There were also elaborate kill-mazes made that forced the enemy team through a long and winding tunnel to get to the flag. Crazy fun.
I remember playing exactly this in Team Fortress 2. It was always fun watching all the snipers build up to the top of the map and then after dying, never going back up to their perch.
D.I.P.R.I.P. , Dystopia, Obsidian Conflict, Dino D-Day, FIREFIGHT RELOADED, awesome almost dead NEOTOKYO, Nucler Dawn, Dark Messiah of Might & Magic Multi-Player mode, Pirates, Vikings, & Knights II, cool Codename CURE, awesome E.Y.E: Divine Cybermancy and unfortunately dead-on-arival Jabroni Brawl: Episode 3 for the second part brother. Good vid man!
Ayy, a fellow Obsidian Conflict enjoyer. Surprised there's no mention of Eternal Silence or Empires, those mods were some of the most unique PVP gameplay I've ever experienced.
There's this old HL2 mod called Overwatch (yes) where there's two teams, the rebels team which play in first person, and the overwatch, which plays on the combine side spawning units to go after the rebels in a RTS kind of way. It was very unique and sadly never got much popularity.
The 3 Source games I still play are Double Action Boogaloo, Fistful of Frags and GoldenEye Source. All 3 of them have bot support, so really these games are at least still playable if you want to know what the gameplay is like. There was also Dystopia, and Neotokyo, the latter which got Valve's attention at one point. These 2 don't have bot support, which is sad because Neotokyo especially has some really cool assets for a Source engine game, taking place in cyberpunk Japan. There were a lot of multiplayer source engine games for free at the time. Your video is just skimming the surface. Looking forward to a part 2!
There is a goldeneye source mod? Need to try this. Dystopia was cool too... The first mod to release wasn't even that good, but it was first:plan of attack.
Action Source is another fun mod and it has mod support. I mean, bot support can be hard to code but a lot of multiplayer source games suffer (and consequently die) when they lack from it, you have the likes of Eternal Silence, DIPRIP Warm Up, Insurgency Modern Infantry Combat, Modular Combat, Firefight Reloaded, Fortress Forever, Empires, you name it. The list goes on and on.
What a throwback with Tactical Intervention, modded clients were really popular in local pc cafes in my town back in like 2014. Completely forgot about it, thanks for unlocking a core childhood memory.
Oh that makes PERFECT sense! NH2 and Underhell both have this flashy action flavor to it in between bouts of horror, and it definitely feels like a love letter to the FEAR games Knowing that Trepang 2 does all of that x10 makes perfect sense knowing some of the dev's backgrounds!
I absolutely adored this video. Watching people talk about obscure stuff they're passionate about is, like, my favorite kind of content ever. Hope you make that part 2 video at some point!
My favorite Source game until today is Pirates, Vikings and Knights 2. Not only got memes back in the day, but also the Melee Combat system is very amazing. Also is nice to know that devs still working on it, there is practically no players playing it, but is nice when you do it with friends, also every update always make ppl play it again. Is just a good Source classic that need to be remember by the players
That game was my go to when I wanted some medieval action since Age Of Chivalry is mostly dead and its bot support is not the best but you can mess around with it I'd say.
@@spartanwar1185 nice to hear that! Ppl still are active on Discord, also there are bots, not the best, but helps to atleast play the game with any map!
@@JimmyElPelado yeah, same thing can be said about Dark Messiah Of Might and Magic which has a pretty solid campaign but an underwhelming multiplayer experience.
I absolutely love your avatar and you're editing style. x3 They're so cute! And stoked to see some love for The Hidden. That game was always so cool to me.
I love the source engine. The games feel so unique, especially counter stike with its movement and gunplay. Even apex uses source (heavily modified) that has the most unique and fun movement out of any battle royal.
@@Valve_sucks Because it's fun and there's a bit more to it than just bashing zombies? All you do in Killing Floor is shoot zombies anyway, just play Project Zomboid instead, smh my head
@@Kaghtaviyyour argument doesn't make any sense, zoomer kid, KF has 10 perks with different play styles while NMRIH literally feels like i am using the same weapon due to the same range and attack speed. keep coping.
the company that published The Ship- Blazing Griffin Games, is a company in my home city Glasgow! I do a course at University related to game dev and I recently worked on a game for them for one of my modules! We published it on itchio under Mirror Mirror :3
Shoutout to Eternal Silence. Seemlessly blending space combat and FPS boarding action. I dreamed of playing it back in 06-07. But by the time I had an internet connection with enough speed and data cap to handle Steam, the game was completely derelict. At least there are games like it today such as Angels Fall First, Star Citizen, Space Engineers, and the EA Battlefronts that can scratch the itch, but they don't quite have the Quak-ey energy Eternal Silence showed off in what gameplay footage still remains here.
Loved your video! I was also into playing mods back in the day, but my “13 year old playing 12 hours a day” prime was more like 2006-2008 with xfire instead of Skype I was a beta tester for The Ship back in the day. It was supposed to be a more full fledged game based on their HL1 mod of the same name, which I had played a lot. The mechanic to maintain your needs is there because it forces you to wander around the ship rather than hiding in a corner somewhere forever, and of course adds to the atmosphere. The funniest bug was everyone’s hair, facial hair, and hats would randomly freeze in place and you would see them floating around all over the map while all the players became bald My favorite dead popular mod is Zombie Master. Valve took its idea and made Left 4 Dead which sucked the wind out of their sails big time. My favorite dead mod nobody played was Plan of Attack, which I don’t think you can even run today. It was trying to be a more strategic counter-strike Shoutout to Eternal Silence as well which was a spaceship dogfighting mod that was a lot of fun. Obsidian Conflict was way better than Synergy back in the day, and was the first mod you could really play a co op mode that didn’t crash all the time (not counting Garry’s mod)
I remember playing The Hidden, back in the day. I was so good being the ''the hidden'' that I never lost a round playing as him. The game I want to come back in some way is Zombie Master. Its an 1 vs the rest kinda game, the said Zombie master plays the game like a RTS game while all the other players play FPS surviving to ge to the end of the level while the Zombie Master can activate traps and spawn and controll zombies.
Is anyone gonna talk about all the cute dogs and cats he puts in his videos?? The lil jumping animations, the ct and t suits, the zombie cats, etc. Theyre all so cute and well exectued that it made me laugh or get excited about whenever i saw them :)) Keep up the good work and keep cooking with your animations!!
Tactical Intervention's car chase mode was honestly some of the most fun I've had in the last 10 years in gaming. Getting high as fuck with my friends and slamming into shit constantly was simply too fun, not to mention the over-the-top gore effects.
I would like to add that "The Hidden" is the name of a very similar gamemode in the vr game pavlov. Which seems to take large inspiration from the game, I can personally say it's a fun gamemode.
Pavol is just CSS in VR. The dev literally isn't even trying to hide it. If Valve won't release it themselves, the fans will(which is what happened with pavlov). Seriously if you just got VR and loved the joys of Source gaming, Pavlov is a must. Everything from Hidden to Trouble in Terrorist Town, but in VR lol
@@memeconsumer773 i usually play it once or twice a year with a group of friends mine, its really fun until you realise that the game can sometimes be kinda BS
@@that_revenant5520 the bunker map is a great example iirc. the map will just spawn few sprinters from time to time with almost no time to react to if you are playing solo.
I really love NMRIH’s maps and combat, the workshop community is hot in that game making great maps. I also really like the guns and flow of going through the maps. The only issues I have with the game is how precise you have to be in melee combat to not get hit, and how some maps like to flood you with infinite/too many sprinters/kids. Sometimes you hit a zombie and it takes a good second to register, and in that time you’re infected.
Oh man, it's funny to see someone a decade younger than me remember source games so fondly :D I was around 16/17 (Around 2007) when I got into all the modded source games for the same reason(broke). I remember Age of Chivalry, Dino D-day, Dystopia, Fistful of Frags, Insurgency, Neo Tokyo, Zombie Master, Synergy, Zombie Master Source.... Ah the good old days lol. And if we go back even further Earth Special Forces(dbz mod) and much later on Naiteki Kensei (Naruto mod) showed so much promise too and on goldsrc no less. They were so fun to play!
I'll still never get over this time I had when the game first came out. I don't remember the map but basically there was this truck and I'd go prone and crawl underneath it and I would have like the perfect view of enemies coming up the hill towards the objective, for some reason no one ever expected to just look down.
@@sonic4ever6 It was probably burhiz or Sijnar I'm more leaning towards Burhiz as that map has a hill and trucks and i know it pretty well from sandstorm
Holy dang dude! Tactical Intervention, Double Action: Boogaloo and Contagion look so sick! Especially the Boogaloo one, it's just AUGH! Fricking epic! I'm check those out and even play it, cuz they look sick! I hope to meet ya there Goldec! Amazing video my man!
if steam pushed mods more on the store page im sure a lot of newer and older source mods would have quite a few new players. i only found out about double action (fun as f*ck) cause it wasnt listed as a mod/source mod and was free.
Great video, would love to see a part two. From the games that weren't mentioned, the first that comes to mind is Zombie Master, pretty unique mod and I loved it growing up, totally dead nowadays, sadly!
I think it's worth covering Jabroni Brawl: Episode 3. The game had a shitton of content from other Source games and mods, it even had its own variation of the The Hidden called The Shidden where the Shidden players have to attack enemies by facing them with their backs. Of course, the attack is followed by a fart sound effect
jb3 was a huge letdown lol it was so hyped at launch and then it had the most awful weapon set ever. it really turned a lot of my friends off of the game and was a constant complaint in server voice chats. couple that with really annoying mods/devs that would get angry about legitimate concerns and the playercount dropped to basically nothing
@@ProtoMan0451 I played JB3 a lot and I do agree some of the weapons were bad but after playing for a while it sort of felt like the balancing for the weapons was built around the play testers that played it for years and got used to the weapon balance. Not only that but there were a couple of literal joke weapons that you could be given and if you didn't know they were bad or a joke you would just have a bad time. Personally what annoyed me the most at launch was that eventually the only server with active players just started overplaying the sneak mode, that mode is good but it just got tiring having to play it too much. And sadly not enough people ever voted for the CTF mode despite it being really fun.
I think what killed Jabroni brawl is its players always picking Shidden. Like it's fun the first few times, but no one wants to play Shidden all day, and honestly Jabroni has better stuff to offer than just that so it's a shame.
0:24 just a small clarification; the license fee is _not_ for Source games per se, but instead for the havok physics engine, which source 1 uses. This was probably the main reason Source 2 uses a physics engine developed entirely by Valve. Not that it really matters that much these days, since Microsoft acquired the company in 2015, and later made a deal with Valve in 2021 that removed the licensing fee for source games, meaning these days you can sell a game using the source engine without any license fees.
Always wanted to play the Hidden, but nobody was ever on it. Those old SeaNanners videos are gold. Glad to see there is more updated easy to play version of it.
You missed the golden age where we had like 5 servers a night that were full. Some people were ABSURDLY good as 617 though, I was pretty good myself too. Good times, maybe the IRIS edition GMOD version still has some players.
I used to play a bunch of Obsidian Conflict, harvest and diving maps in particular were lots of fun. There was also a map where you could bet on which HL2 NPC would win in an arena fight.
I really like the way you covered this, a lot of old favorites in there. If you'd like to cover more dead Source Engine games, Eternal Silence and Neotokyo were two of my all time favorites. Neotokyo was CS-like but cyberpunk, but Eternal Silence was incredible for the time. Space flight and on foot combat in the same match.
Great video! I have fond memories of The Hidden Source, it might be the best multiplayer source mod to this date. I've tried Contagion only last year and was very pleasantly surprised, it feels like The Walking Dead FPS survival game done right and a great breath of fresh air to someone who got really tired of L4D over the years.
Contagion and The Ship were the games of my high school childhood. My friends and I would boot up our low end PCs and play those games on Hamachi servers until we literally couldn't stay awake any longer. Oh, and the 6 hour Skype calls LOL... Miss those days! Thanks for making this video :)
A source game I absolutely loved when I was a kid was Zombie Master. I used to play the hell out of that, Synergy and Obsidian Conflict. It's a shame OC isn't really a thing anymore, it was essentially Synergy but with arguably more features
There was a remake of Zombie Master made for Garry's Mod and I think a group of people also remastered the original Zombie Master mod if you're unaware.
There is a remaster of Zombie Master called Zombie Master: Reborn using the more modern version of Source 1 engine rather than the 2007 branch that the OG uses, made by a different team. They have a Discord server. First time I played it was back in summer 2019, still in development, as of now in Beta 6.
wake up babe, new goldecc video dropped edit: damn the hidden seems like a cool game. also the invisibility being that way, seems like the best way that not even new games do.
The Specialists back in the day was fuckin' mindblowing. Double Action was meant to be a successor to it, TS was Goldsrc, so I dunno if you were OLD ENOUGH to experience the golden age of that modding scene. Great video! Love your style.
I remember playing Zombie Panic: Source back on my moms gaming PC back in the late 2008-2009. Those were the good days before she got me my own to work on. Lemme tell you. Nothing felt better than these games did. The potential, the love, the fun you could have with friends and new friends made on these source games. Sigh, memories.
I don't know if this source game is obscure but for me I used to play lots of fistful of frags. It's free and on Steam. It's like a wild west shooter. Edit: Forgot to mention codename cure, another free source engine zombie game.
There was also a unique source game, almost fully forgotten - Zombie Master (more like a mod then a game), it had a lot of people playing it back in the days. Had really unique mechanics in it.
My favorite obscure source game is Dino D Day. I used to think Nigel (Dude with rocket launcher) was broken strong until a dude joined and started bunny hopping at mach 10 on the biggest selectable dinosaur in the game one shoting everyone. Usually I played just 1v1 since there is little people online, microraptor is my favorite because I'm a pest.
as having played all of these i can say that boogaloo was basically a spiritual successor to the half life mod called "The specialist" which carried a lot of the same mechanics and play style actually attributing a lot of its mechanics from john woo films rather than the matrix. that being said as well games from my childhood are more ancient than this, not the oldest but still. having been around playing these when they came out new and following them on moddb and someone referring them to as "The good ol days" really makes me think it's time for a colonoscopy since i'm getting that old.
Zombie Master wasn’t ever a popular mod but it was a really fun one that i used to play with people back in the day, these days it’s completely dead tho
Heyo, Fellow Zombie Master player here, it was one of the best zombie experiences ever. I really hope one day a proper game is made with those mechanics.
Man I remember zombie master. I used to play it back in like 2009 or 2010, can't remember. It was soo fun, but I was a really shitty ZM lol. I was pretty young at the time.
Hey, I'm Resi and I made a map for Double Action Boogaloo and Tactical Intervention (to make a point, haha. I recreated Office and made a thread on the Tactical Intervention forums and explained that the maps that Gooseman had made for the project were extremely inadequate and poorly designed. Because I wanted to point that the map design was not the complex problem that was creating lag in the game, but guess what? I think it was the really bad physics calculations ruining the game's performance. That or extremely detailed models.) As for DA:B, I was commissioned to make a map for a private server and there is a funny story behind that, if anyone is interested.
Man what a nostalgia trip. I remember back in middle school I'd spend all day on ModDB just browsing for mods. Half Life 2's page was always booming. That was right around the time all the "Planet" sites were coming to end, also filefront, gamefront and such.
1:45 this was at the time (like 2015-2017) was stalker in roblox LMAO This *was* a real discovery for me *at the time* tbh lol and still is a real discovery for me
There is a game on ROBLOX that has either stolen or used the idea of THE HIDDEN. It’s name is Anomalous Activities: Equinox Directive and still has players today.
Fun fact on Double Action - It's actually a spiritual successor to The Specialists which was a Half Life mod I played an absurd amount of. I played a ton of all these games and it's cool that the algorithm threw this to me. NeoTokyo and Natural Selection are two big ones from my childhood.

12:40 _Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines_ had toggles for first and third person perspectives, with it always going into third person mode whenever fighting in melee combat (which is the preferred way to fight).
Great one
Tactical Intervention, it was one of the few times I ever bothered "getting good" at a competitive shooter. I LOVED that game, and the mechanics made you feel like you were working your way through a career. Having a dog was cool too.
the highway escort hostage mode was the best ever
The Ship is an excellent game. There are still a few active players but the master server is dead, so you have to look up a server online and add its IP manually. There are three servers that I know of. You can also play against bots, which can be really janky, but are sometimes terrifyingly human.
One thing not mentioned are the secrets. There are 10 ships, all with a variety of secrets, ranging from paintings that slide aside to reveal a weapon, to full blown hidden rooms behind rotating bookcases. Finding all of them is a game in itself.
Honestly, it was ahead of its time. If it came out now as a Fortnite/Roblox mod I bet it would be insanely popular.

Hey! Don't forget Eternal Silence. Literally nobody mentions that game. A mixture of cyberpunk/Sci fy game and while we are a it, a big shout out to From Earth. A very alien-like game that it is pretty much forgotten.
Rye Games did a pretty good video exploring old free games titled "Exploring the best free games you never heard of" and included Neo Tokyo. Iirc he had a lot of the regulars on when he played with his discord server. As soon as I saw this comment I had to hunt down the video to share here, highly recommended
Hi, I.R.I.S Edition Developer here, Hope you enjoyed playing the mod. Thanks for the kind words about it as well!
Thank you for also reminding me about Tactical Intervention, It's been a long time.
If you've not heard of Temporal Assassin then I'd suggest taking a quick little look if you're interested in more of me and my small group of nerds work.
Stay safe and Thanks again!
Love the work on I.R.I.S. edition it’s really underrated
@@goldecc Thank you for saying so!
@@magenta_iris Can you propkill in that edition?
I'm asking... for a very concerned friend.
@@jabroniyumerale6204 You can, But it's not as stupidly easy as the Original The Hidden: Source.
Hidden edition to be more precise. You did a mod for garis mod bro stop trying to sound like a dev of the original title:))
I did some work in Double Action Boogaloo - I didn't make much but what I did was I modeled and textured the Colt 1911 (Stallion .45) handgun, and animated its single version viewmodel animations as well as the run cycle for the characters (Forward running cycle). Although they don't look that great, I was around 16 years old when I made the stuff you see here.
Just wanted to say it's fun to see videos of DA:B even though it's dead, so thank you for making a video of Double Action: Boogaloo, hopefully this could potentially give some life back to the game.
Such a nostalgic throwback.
A few more great ones to add to the list.
Neotokyo - Counter Strike but set in a cool cyberpunk world with 3 classes each with their own ability one of my favourite mods
Empires - A fun blend of top down strategy and FPS (I’d say nulcear dawn too but that was paid, one of my favourites though)
Age of Chivalry - medieval class based team objective game
Insurgency - the OG mod that was honestly a blast
Dystopia - Never played it but heard great things
Tactical Intervention's biggest contribution to internet culture was the 10 minutes of Jerma laughing at car crashes it gave us
Quick note on The Hidden - Pavlov VR has officially added that as a gamemode a while back if you're looking to experience it in a new way
was looking for a man of culture 😼
@@depingus5584Same
the fact that Day of Infamy wasn't featured in is disappointing you should try it out if you're gonna make a part 2
how about Insurgency (not sandstorm)?
Day of Infamy, my beloved.
@@atsizbalikwell it moved on
@@atsizbalik I dont know if it would count as "dead" tho. Sure it only has about 100-300 players now but in it's glory days it was well over 5000 which is not that bad for an indie Source game. The other games listed in the video however I literally haven't heard them in my entire life
based pfp
I clicked this video on a whim and I have to say I'm in love with your editing style. It's fast-paced, engaging, and every character being presented as a funny cat really adds a flair of uniqueness.
You should cover Zombie Master, it was pretty unique for a zombie mod. One team is survivors trying to complete tasks in order to escape the map, the other team is 1 guy controlling zombies like it's an RTS. I still have fond memories of people blaring Rammstein over the mic as we tried to escape the Resident Evil underground facility map.
I loved that mod. Used to play it a lot from 2009-2010. That resident evil map was classic
@@TheProGamerOldschool "You're all going to die down here....."
@@LiMpIcH I don‘t remember this quote, who said it?
Btw. my ingame name was „Kaan“ for years. So if you or anyone else remembers please write me, maybe we can all connect and play again
Pretty sure people played ZPS on that map too haha I have very fond memories of that deathtrap of a map!
Loved Zombie Master. I can still remember the people blaring Rammstein over the little girl's voice.
I remember watching TheNerdCubed play "The Ship" back in the day. When i recently rewatched his videos on it, it baffled me that the game was made on Source. Great video by the way!
It started as a HL1 mod.
A fairly obscure, but very fun mod, was SourceForts, This mod had 2 teams construct their base's fortress during a timed build mode out of variously sized panels that could be frozen in place, after which was attack mode where you had to infiltrate the enemy base, steal, and capture their flag. It was effectively a Half-life 2 deathmatch mod with the weapons and skins straight from HL2, along with various classes. It was a chaotic game, most of the time both teams constructed a wall at the boundary line between the two bases and once attack mode started each team would bombard each other with grenades over the wall. There were also elaborate kill-mazes made that forced the enemy team through a long and winding tunnel to get to the flag.
Crazy fun.
this game ruled
sourceforts was so fucking cool lmao
God I wish that game got players again, so fun
Best mod from back in the day
I remember playing exactly this in Team Fortress 2. It was always fun watching all the snipers build up to the top of the map and then after dying, never going back up to their perch.
D.I.P.R.I.P. , Dystopia, Obsidian Conflict, Dino D-Day, FIREFIGHT RELOADED, awesome almost dead NEOTOKYO, Nucler Dawn, Dark Messiah of Might & Magic Multi-Player mode, Pirates, Vikings, & Knights II, cool Codename CURE, awesome E.Y.E: Divine Cybermancy and unfortunately dead-on-arival Jabroni Brawl: Episode 3 for the second part brother. Good vid man!
so happy to see other people who experienced obsidian conflict
God I miss DIPRIP and the hacking part from Dystopia
Ayy, a fellow Obsidian Conflict enjoyer. Surprised there's no mention of Eternal Silence or Empires, those mods were some of the most unique PVP gameplay I've ever experienced.
+ goldeneye source!
I tried out Dystopia, it was fun despite the complexity.
Also, I didn't know there was a Postal 3. I knew the games were 1, 2, Brain Damaged, and 4.
I miss playing The Ship so much. Use to take turns playing at my buddy house, order pizza, and drink beer. Good times.
There's this old HL2 mod called Overwatch (yes) where there's two teams, the rebels team which play in first person, and the overwatch, which plays on the combine side spawning units to go after the rebels in a RTS kind of way. It was very unique and sadly never got much popularity.
The 3 Source games I still play are Double Action Boogaloo, Fistful of Frags and GoldenEye Source. All 3 of them have bot support, so really these games are at least still playable if you want to know what the gameplay is like.
There was also Dystopia, and Neotokyo, the latter which got Valve's attention at one point. These 2 don't have bot support, which is sad because Neotokyo especially has some really cool assets for a Source engine game, taking place in cyberpunk Japan.
There were a lot of multiplayer source engine games for free at the time. Your video is just skimming the surface. Looking forward to a part 2!
Double Action Boogaloo is truly one of the coolest MP games of all time!!!
@@maymayman0 The Specialists and Double Action Boogaloo are both incredible mods and some of the most fun you can have in a MP environment.
Man, Dystopia, Neotokyo and this other souce mod that I can't think of the name and it's driving me nuts. All three of them were so fun and well made.
There is a goldeneye source mod? Need to try this. Dystopia was cool too...
The first mod to release wasn't even that good, but it was first:plan of attack.
Action Source is another fun mod and it has mod support. I mean, bot support can be hard to code but a lot of multiplayer source games suffer (and consequently die) when they lack from it, you have the likes of Eternal Silence, DIPRIP Warm Up, Insurgency Modern Infantry Combat, Modular Combat, Firefight Reloaded, Fortress Forever, Empires, you name it. The list goes on and on.
What a throwback with Tactical Intervention, modded clients were really popular in local pc cafes in my town back in like 2014. Completely forgot about it, thanks for unlocking a core childhood memory.
i was the best driver in the lobby. what a shame it got shut down
3:31funfact trepang2 was made by some of the devteam behind nightmare house and underhell (great hl2 mods)
Oh that makes PERFECT sense! NH2 and Underhell both have this flashy action flavor to it in between bouts of horror, and it definitely feels like a love letter to the FEAR games
Knowing that Trepang 2 does all of that x10 makes perfect sense knowing some of the dev's backgrounds!
good thing Trepang 2 is a good game instead of all that garbage you mentioned.
@@Valve_sucks Well you gotta start from somewhere
Underhell was so good until you left the hub area
I'd recommend Treason on Steam, a free social deduction shooter, up to 16 players - runs on source engine ;)
I absolutely adored this video. Watching people talk about obscure stuff they're passionate about is, like, my favorite kind of content ever. Hope you make that part 2 video at some point!
Old source games were the quintessential "TH-camr game" for a while from 2010-2015. Honestly a lot of these games are funner to watch than play.
I liked that cartoon guy, he seems like a nice fellow 👤
real
fake
Shouldn't you be incapacitated from the car that got thrown?
@@Skrubscribble plot armor
Indeed a fun guy.
My favorite Source game until today is Pirates, Vikings and Knights 2.
Not only got memes back in the day, but also the Melee Combat system is very amazing.
Also is nice to know that devs still working on it, there is practically no players playing it, but is nice when you do it with friends, also every update always make ppl play it again. Is just a good Source classic that need to be remember by the players
Dammit now i gotta boot that game up and play it again /lh
That game was indeed fun!
That game was my go to when I wanted some medieval action since Age Of Chivalry is mostly dead and its bot support is not the best but you can mess around with it I'd say.
@@spartanwar1185 nice to hear that! Ppl still are active on Discord, also there are bots, not the best, but helps to atleast play the game with any map!
@@XanderNiles true, hopefully we can have a update soon, always the game got players when that happens, is just a very nostalgic feel!
@@JimmyElPelado yeah, same thing can be said about Dark Messiah Of Might and Magic which has a pretty solid campaign but an underwhelming multiplayer experience.
I absolutely love your avatar and you're editing style. x3 They're so cute! And stoked to see some love for The Hidden. That game was always so cool to me.
I love the source engine. The games feel so unique, especially counter stike with its movement and gunplay. Even apex uses source (heavily modified) that has the most unique and fun movement out of any battle royal.
tactical intervention, zombie panic source, no more room in hell, codename cure,
no more room in hell was and still is insanely good
Replace Tactical Intervention with Brainbread 2 and you have the most underrated and overlooked zombie source games, also add Contagion to the mix.
I don't think ZPS or NMRIH are dead completely are they? I remember hanging out in the NMRIH forums wayyy back in the day. Good times.
What so good about NMRIH? All you do is bash the same zombie head with a big melee weapon that has the range of a knife. Play Killing Floor instead.
@@Valve_sucks Because it's fun and there's a bit more to it than just bashing zombies? All you do in Killing Floor is shoot zombies anyway, just play Project Zomboid instead, smh my head
@@Kaghtaviyyour argument doesn't make any sense, zoomer kid, KF has 10 perks with different play styles while NMRIH literally feels like i am using the same weapon due to the same range and attack speed. keep coping.
the company that published The Ship- Blazing Griffin Games, is a company in my home city Glasgow! I do a course at University related to game dev and I recently worked on a game for them for one of my modules! We published it on itchio under Mirror Mirror :3
Is it the one published by "Glasgow Caledonian University"? There are a LOT of games on itch with that name, lol
@@NatSpectrum yeah lol my bad, should have specified
Shoutout to Eternal Silence. Seemlessly blending space combat and FPS boarding action. I dreamed of playing it back in 06-07. But by the time I had an internet connection with enough speed and data cap to handle Steam, the game was completely derelict. At least there are games like it today such as Angels Fall First, Star Citizen, Space Engineers, and the EA Battlefronts that can scratch the itch, but they don't quite have the Quak-ey energy Eternal Silence showed off in what gameplay footage still remains here.
ZOMBIE MASTER was awesome and never gets enough credit.
Loved your video! I was also into playing mods back in the day, but my “13 year old playing 12 hours a day” prime was more like 2006-2008 with xfire instead of Skype
I was a beta tester for The Ship back in the day. It was supposed to be a more full fledged game based on their HL1 mod of the same name, which I had played a lot. The mechanic to maintain your needs is there because it forces you to wander around the ship rather than hiding in a corner somewhere forever, and of course adds to the atmosphere. The funniest bug was everyone’s hair, facial hair, and hats would randomly freeze in place and you would see them floating around all over the map while all the players became bald
My favorite dead popular mod is Zombie Master. Valve took its idea and made Left 4 Dead which sucked the wind out of their sails big time.
My favorite dead mod nobody played was Plan of Attack, which I don’t think you can even run today. It was trying to be a more strategic counter-strike
Shoutout to Eternal Silence as well which was a spaceship dogfighting mod that was a lot of fun.
Obsidian Conflict was way better than Synergy back in the day, and was the first mod you could really play a co op mode that didn’t crash all the time (not counting Garry’s mod)
luckily The Ship has bots, i still sometimes play it to this day! the aesthetics of this game are so good
Only just found that out while working on this video and they’re surprisingly good too
I know you can still play online with workarounds similar to gameranger
I remember playing The Hidden, back in the day. I was so good being the ''the hidden'' that I never lost a round playing as him.
The game I want to come back in some way is Zombie Master. Its an 1 vs the rest kinda game, the said Zombie master plays the game like a RTS game while all the other players play FPS surviving to ge to the end of the level while the Zombie Master can activate traps and spawn and controll zombies.
I don't know where I heard this or how true it is but I'm pretty certain a second one is being made, or a spiritual successor is being made.
Is anyone gonna talk about all the cute dogs and cats he puts in his videos?? The lil jumping animations, the ct and t suits, the zombie cats, etc. Theyre all so cute and well exectued that it made me laugh or get excited about whenever i saw them :)) Keep up the good work and keep cooking with your animations!!
Tactical Intervention's car chase mode was honestly some of the most fun I've had in the last 10 years in gaming. Getting high as fuck with my friends and slamming into shit constantly was simply too fun, not to mention the over-the-top gore effects.
I would like to add that "The Hidden" is the name of a very similar gamemode in the vr game pavlov. Which seems to take large inspiration from the game, I can personally say it's a fun gamemode.
Pavol is just CSS in VR. The dev literally isn't even trying to hide it. If Valve won't release it themselves, the fans will(which is what happened with pavlov).
Seriously if you just got VR and loved the joys of Source gaming, Pavlov is a must. Everything from Hidden to Trouble in Terrorist Town, but in VR lol
I think you should talk about No More Room in Hell if theres ever a part 2
Lol I had it downloaded for a year but never played it
@@memeconsumer773 i usually play it once or twice a year with a group of friends mine, its really fun until you realise that the game can sometimes be kinda BS
@@that_revenant5520 the bunker map is a great example iirc. the map will just spawn few sprinters from time to time with almost no time to react to if you are playing solo.
its not dead tho, sequel in the works + 1st game actively getting bugfixes + avg. 500 players daily
I really love NMRIH’s maps and combat, the workshop community is hot in that game making great maps. I also really like the guns and flow of going through the maps. The only issues I have with the game is how precise you have to be in melee combat to not get hit, and how some maps like to flood you with infinite/too many sprinters/kids. Sometimes you hit a zombie and it takes a good second to register, and in that time you’re infected.
Oh man, it's funny to see someone a decade younger than me remember source games so fondly :D I was around 16/17 (Around 2007) when I got into all the modded source games for the same reason(broke). I remember Age of Chivalry, Dino D-day, Dystopia, Fistful of Frags, Insurgency, Neo Tokyo, Zombie Master, Synergy, Zombie Master Source.... Ah the good old days lol. And if we go back even further Earth Special Forces(dbz mod) and much later on Naiteki Kensei (Naruto mod) showed so much promise too and on goldsrc no less. They were so fun to play!
The Ship? Obscure? Cmon man.
Double Action Boogaloo was so much fun when it was active. Definitely my favorite non Valve source game.
I have to say I LOVE the music choices, yogacast tunes, little big planet tunes, couldn’t have chosen better songs for such a nostalgic video
Love man
Writing this I’m pretty sure the only other time I’ve appreciated music choice in a video was another one from you
Guess ur killing it, good choice
My duderino even put the Battlefield Bad Company theme in there too.
I've been searching for The Hidden: Source for YEARS - I couldn't remember the name. Thank you for the nostalgia-trip!
Also shoutout to Insurgency; I discovered it quite late, but it was one of the most well made Source-based games I had tried.
I'll still never get over this time I had when the game first came out. I don't remember the map but basically there was this truck and I'd go prone and crawl underneath it and I would have like the perfect view of enemies coming up the hill towards the objective, for some reason no one ever expected to just look down.
@@sonic4ever6 It was probably burhiz or Sijnar I'm more leaning towards Burhiz as that map has a hill and trucks and i know it pretty well from sandstorm
man why does goldec make actual GOLD SOURCE VIDS like i cannot find anything even close to this dude`s entertainment.
great video man, so much nastalgia seeing the hidden again after all these years
Holy dang dude! Tactical Intervention, Double Action: Boogaloo and Contagion look so sick! Especially the Boogaloo one, it's just AUGH! Fricking epic! I'm check those out and even play it, cuz they look sick! I hope to meet ya there Goldec! Amazing video my man!
if steam pushed mods more on the store page im sure a lot of newer and older source mods would have quite a few new players. i only found out about double action (fun as f*ck) cause it wasnt listed as a mod/source mod and was free.
holy fuck the Yogscast music combined with Seananners and The Hidden makes me so fucking nostalgic holyshit
Great video, would love to see a part two. From the games that weren't mentioned, the first that comes to mind is Zombie Master, pretty unique mod and I loved it growing up, totally dead nowadays, sadly!
Havent seen anyone mention this, but i love the fact you used modnation racers ost for this video!
I think it's worth covering Jabroni Brawl: Episode 3. The game had a shitton of content from other Source games and mods, it even had its own variation of the The Hidden called The Shidden where the Shidden players have to attack enemies by facing them with their backs. Of course, the attack is followed by a fart sound effect
jb3 was a huge letdown lol it was so hyped at launch and then it had the most awful weapon set ever. it really turned a lot of my friends off of the game and was a constant complaint in server voice chats. couple that with really annoying mods/devs that would get angry about legitimate concerns and the playercount dropped to basically nothing
@@ProtoMan0451 I played JB3 a lot and I do agree some of the weapons were bad but after playing for a while it sort of felt like the balancing for the weapons was built around the play testers that played it for years and got used to the weapon balance.
Not only that but there were a couple of literal joke weapons that you could be given and if you didn't know they were bad or a joke you would just have a bad time.
Personally what annoyed me the most at launch was that eventually the only server with active players just started overplaying the sneak mode, that mode is good but it just got tiring having to play it too much.
And sadly not enough people ever voted for the CTF mode despite it being really fun.
@@ProtoMan0451 also jb3 was never advertised as shitpost yet that's what it is, and it was a huge disappointment for some people (including me)
I think what killed Jabroni brawl is its players always picking Shidden. Like it's fun the first few times, but no one wants to play Shidden all day, and honestly Jabroni has better stuff to offer than just that so it's a shame.
People keep voting for that horrible gokart mini game with the atrocious controls, and I dont understand why. It made me stop playing pretty quickly
0:24 just a small clarification; the license fee is _not_ for Source games per se, but instead for the havok physics engine, which source 1 uses. This was probably the main reason Source 2 uses a physics engine developed entirely by Valve. Not that it really matters that much these days, since Microsoft acquired the company in 2015, and later made a deal with Valve in 2021 that removed the licensing fee for source games, meaning these days you can sell a game using the source engine without any license fees.
Always wanted to play the Hidden, but nobody was ever on it. Those old SeaNanners videos are gold. Glad to see there is more updated easy to play version of it.
You missed the golden age where we had like 5 servers a night that were full. Some people were ABSURDLY good as 617 though, I was pretty good myself too. Good times, maybe the IRIS edition GMOD version still has some players.
Surprised you didnt mention Dino D-Day
Such a fun and unique game, i mean you can olay as dinos with goddamn guns
Double Action Boogaloo was absolutely my jam. So many hours lost to time.
Shoutouts to Empires hl2 mod, mostly dead except for weekends these days but I had tons of fun back in the day
empires was sick back in the day
I used to play a bunch of Obsidian Conflict, harvest and diving maps in particular were lots of fun. There was also a map where you could bet on which HL2 NPC would win in an arena fight.
Hidden: Source, my beloved. clocked a lot of hours with the homies in that game
I really like the way you covered this, a lot of old favorites in there. If you'd like to cover more dead Source Engine games, Eternal Silence and Neotokyo were two of my all time favorites. Neotokyo was CS-like but cyberpunk, but Eternal Silence was incredible for the time. Space flight and on foot combat in the same match.
Aggghh. You hit me with the little big planet music and sounds, and im crying. Nastolgia really does some weird things.
1:07 this clock follows me everywhere
SLZ
Cyber dive ? Kumawar2? History channel dogfights the game? Neo tokyo?
Great video! I have fond memories of The Hidden Source, it might be the best multiplayer source mod to this date. I've tried Contagion only last year and was very pleasantly surprised, it feels like The Walking Dead FPS survival game done right and a great breath of fresh air to someone who got really tired of L4D over the years.
Contagion and The Ship were the games of my high school childhood. My friends and I would boot up our low end PCs and play those games on Hamachi servers until we literally couldn't stay awake any longer.
Oh, and the 6 hour Skype calls LOL... Miss those days! Thanks for making this video :)
Hamachi was so cursed! People these days have no idea how easy it is to simply join games :P
shout out to No More Room in Hell making it out the hood
A source game I absolutely loved when I was a kid was Zombie Master. I used to play the hell out of that, Synergy and Obsidian Conflict.
It's a shame OC isn't really a thing anymore, it was essentially Synergy but with arguably more features
There was a remake of Zombie Master made for Garry's Mod and I think a group of people also remastered the original Zombie Master mod if you're unaware.
@@Yushe_ ooo I didn't know about this! I'll have to check it out
There is a remaster of Zombie Master called Zombie Master: Reborn using the more modern version of Source 1 engine rather than the 2007 branch that the OG uses, made by a different team. They have a Discord server. First time I played it was back in summer 2019, still in development, as of now in Beta 6.
God, I fucking love Obsidian Conflict. I remember that a new team was resurrecting it, but idk.
@@Web720 Yeah, I've been looking through their website and discord but it's looking like the last official news was posted June last year rip
Fun fact about Double Action, it was meant to also be a follow up to the Half-Life Mod called the Specialists, the gameplay is nearly identical.
wake up babe, new goldecc video dropped
edit: damn the hidden seems like a cool game. also the invisibility being that way, seems like the best way that not even new games do.
The Specialists back in the day was fuckin' mindblowing. Double Action was meant to be a successor to it, TS was Goldsrc, so I dunno if you were OLD ENOUGH to experience the golden age of that modding scene. Great video! Love your style.
I remember playing Zombie Panic: Source back on my moms gaming PC back in the late 2008-2009. Those were the good days before she got me my own to work on. Lemme tell you. Nothing felt better than these games did. The potential, the love, the fun you could have with friends and new friends made on these source games. Sigh, memories.
I love the LBP sfx and music. Solid video
man double action: boogaloo i had memories with that game but i forgot the name of the game but thanks for your video i remembered it
I don't know if this source game is obscure but for me I used to play lots of fistful of frags. It's free and on Steam. It's like a wild west shooter.
Edit: Forgot to mention codename cure, another free source engine zombie game.
I can't believe you didn't mention Dino D-Day!!!!!!!
There was also a unique source game, almost fully forgotten - Zombie Master (more like a mod then a game), it had a lot of people playing it back in the days. Had really unique mechanics in it.
I've said it the first time I saw one of your videos and i'm saying it again; you content is amazing
3:28 thanks for shouting out trepang. It’s a good ass game
My favorite obscure source game is Dino D Day. I used to think Nigel (Dude with rocket launcher) was broken strong until a dude joined and started bunny hopping at mach 10 on the biggest selectable dinosaur in the game one shoting everyone. Usually I played just 1v1 since there is little people online, microraptor is my favorite because I'm a pest.
Yoooooo I have been looking for 'The Hidden' for the longest time! Like for over a year, but you finally helped me find it lol!
as having played all of these i can say that boogaloo was basically a spiritual successor to the half life mod called "The specialist" which carried a lot of the same mechanics and play style actually attributing a lot of its mechanics from john woo films rather than the matrix. that being said as well games from my childhood are more ancient than this, not the oldest but still. having been around playing these when they came out new and following them on moddb and someone referring them to as "The good ol days" really makes me think it's time for a colonoscopy since i'm getting that old.
Zombie Master wasn’t ever a popular mod but it was a really fun one that i used to play with people back in the day, these days it’s completely dead tho
Heyo, Fellow Zombie Master player here, it was one of the best zombie experiences ever. I really hope one day a proper game is made with those mechanics.
Man I remember zombie master. I used to play it back in like 2009 or 2010, can't remember. It was soo fun, but I was a really shitty ZM lol. I was pretty young at the time.
Hey, I'm Resi and I made a map for Double Action Boogaloo and Tactical Intervention (to make a point, haha. I recreated Office and made a thread on the Tactical Intervention forums and explained that the maps that Gooseman had made for the project were extremely inadequate and poorly designed. Because I wanted to point that the map design was not the complex problem that was creating lag in the game, but guess what? I think it was the really bad physics calculations ruining the game's performance. That or extremely detailed models.)
As for DA:B, I was commissioned to make a map for a private server and there is a funny story behind that, if anyone is interested.

Man what a nostalgia trip. I remember back in middle school I'd spend all day on ModDB just browsing for mods. Half Life 2's page was always booming. That was right around the time all the "Planet" sites were coming to end, also filefront, gamefront and such.
1:45 this was at the time (like 2015-2017) was stalker in roblox LMAO
This *was* a real discovery for me *at the time* tbh lol
and still is a real discovery for me
Stalker in Roblox is clone of eponymous source mod that were inspired by THe Hidden, threfore in Roblox the place is imitating source engine
@@groswalker1636 yes, i know.
(and i made a small grammar error)
@@lollmaoon Soo this is the reason why ur playing as a combine soldier I gather
There is a game on ROBLOX that has either stolen or used the idea of THE HIDDEN. It’s name is Anomalous Activities: Equinox Directive and still has players today.
Theres an even older game then that called STALKER on roblox that even uses the voice lines from the hidden
all theses games were classic
Fun fact on Double Action - It's actually a spiritual successor to The Specialists which was a Half Life mod I played an absurd amount of. I played a ton of all these games and it's cool that the algorithm threw this to me. NeoTokyo and Natural Selection are two big ones from my childhood.
Tactical Intervention has the best shooting and guns in a source game ever.
