I would like to nominate Mr. Popo...

Oh, wait, you mean THAT kind of mod.

Seriously though, it's amazing how many Half-Life 2 mods are on that list. Valve is awesome for being so community friendly.

I'm just getting back into PC gaming, so I'm not familiar with most of these. I was big into the modding scene for Starcraft years ago, but I haven't really kept up with much since then.

LOL, I was wondering what kind of mod too. I thought it was a poll about hard-modding, so I figured Bacteria or Hailraizer.

I think what's even more amazing is that a Crysis mod topped the list for multiplayer in both the editor's and reader's choices. Still, Mechwarrior Living Legends is a fantastic mod, and I encourage anyone who can run Crysis to check it out. And any Mech fans out there should get a computer that can run Crysis and check it out.

Was going to nominate Bacteria, thought this was going to be awards for console modifications.
