No One Lives Forever 2 Toolkit Out Now 5

Guy Welch writes "Sierra and Monolith have just released the No One Lives Forever 2 toolkit, including the complete editing tools and source code. This toolkit allows users to create mods and all sorts of other changes to this first person spy shooter."

    i really wonder why there are still games made that dont have this from the beginning on. since most new games have crappy gameplay and are boring after you have beaten them once, it would seem like a obvious thing to make them modable, and increase their lifespan that way

    Cool! I've always wanted to see Aliens vs Preditor vs NOLF!

      Still! It's a fun game. Love that trailer park scene!
