[edit] Frankenstein

Does "Frankenstein" refer to Victor Frankenstein or to Frankenstein's monster? McPhail 18:58, 26 August 2005 (UTC)

I believe it's actually refering to the novel as a whole. --InShaneee 21:34, 26 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Guess Who's Coming to Dinner

I can't find any reference to this being the subtitle for the first game, including in the game itself and on the official website. I'm going to go ahead and remove it until someone can show otherwise. --InShaneee 03:48, 21 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] added cleanup category tag

Politepunk 17:31, 4 March 2006 (UTC) I added the cleanup category tag as I think that this article could benefit from a bit of attention. I'd be happy to help with rewriting it but I don't really know anything about the game or the mod and might not be the best candidate to do this. I'll watch the page and if nobody else has a go then...

I rewrote the first section. As far as I can see, the second game summary is all that needs work now. --InShaneee 21:08, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Main character info

Just wondering - does the main character have a name? Any personal info? A picture, anything? All I've managed to glean from the game is that he's male, wears gloves and seems to drive a hearse. Is there any personal info that can be fitted into the article? --216.240.13.217 19:16, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Awards

Can anyone get me some links to all the sites that gave this series 'mod' awards? I know theres a bunch of them out there. When the mod came out, I always remember hearing about it getting 'mod of the year' awards and what not...

I know it did get awards, but I don;t think they've maintained a page with the awards on. I'll get in contant with Manke, and ask him. I know onw thing though: On Serverspy statistics, soon after release this was the 16th most popular Half-Life mod played in Internet, competing with hundreds of other multiplayer mods.

-- Awesome! Here's one I know of:

"A Great Honour!" Oct. 10, 2002

With Halloween approaching, the November Issue (pg. 102) of PC Gamer magazine has named "They Hunger" as one of the "10 Scariest PC Games Ever...". However, I'm unsure if I like the part where they call me and my "hungry helpers" equally scary. LOL

I got a relpy (that quickly? I know!). He said these are all he can think of. I did see it, but it may still be useful for you. http://manke.planethalflife.gamespy.com/thblurbs.htm http://manke.planethalflife.gamespy.com/th2blurbs.htm http://manke.planethalflife.gamespy.com/th3blurbs.htm
