A video in my series of forgotten Half-Life mods:

Boxwar is a multiplayer mod where all the players are boxes and crates. The game is supposed to play like the prop hunt mode in TF2 or GMOD, but because I'm playing with bots in this video, it ends up just being regular old deathmatch. 

Video features:
0:00 Deathmatch mode
2:46 Explosions! mode. You explode when you die.
4:16 Scientist hunt mode. Pick up the green test tube to transform into a scientist. The longer you stay alive, the more points you get. When you die, the person who killed you becomes the scientist. 

Notes
*Boxwar only works on the WON version of Half-Life (patch version 1.1.1.0)
*To add bots, type "addbot" in the console.
*Fraps does not work well with the WON version of Half-Life, hence the occasional choppiness.
