Since their is a "Best game you ever played" thread why not best mods you ever played.
Mods give us new weapons, levels and alot more.
The Specialists 3.0 (Half Life One) TS 3.0 Final Montage
First Person or Third Person Views
Many Weapons including SMGs, Rifles, Handguns, Shotguns, Swords and Knives plus Attachments such as Scopes, Silencers and Lasers.
Many levels inducing one from the Martix titled Lobby.
Realistic Recoil on Guns
RP and Deathmatch both fairly well populated. Even after 6 years or so.
Playing for 5 years and it is still awesome.
Lance 2 (Gears of War) Lance 2 Gameplay
Added Bots to Multilayer.
5v5 or 6v6 From the standard 4v4 online matches.
Many amazing custom maps that some are better then the ones that came with the game.
Bots can be hard and moderate.
Lots of fun when your internet is not all that great for versing actual players .
Go to Civfanatics. All kinds of mods for the Civ games. The best I've used so far is simply called "Extra" for Civ 4. A bunch of new techs and units, but the balance is still good.
There's a mod for Sid Meyer's Alpha Centauri, and another very popular fantasy RPG one (forgot the name).
Anyway, really breaths new life into the game. Highly recomended.

For Oblivion it's Oscuro's Oblivion Overhaul, i can't play Oblivion without it, it overhauls the loot system and simply adds a lot of awesome stuff to the game.
Though i don't have it, i Really Really want to play G mod, i can't wait to put G-man in a rocket bathtub...
Civilisation IV - final frontier mod is like, almost good. Sunk some big time in to it. Doesn't quite have the depth to be really good, but it's the reason I downloaded Freelancer
Well, aside from this one, the finest mod I've seen are the lightabre/jedi mods for Dungeon Siege I & II.
Not only are the lightsabers 1 and 2 handed, but also the Darth maul bostaff/double saber, but man they sound and look cool.
Also the added Jedi/Sith spells and armors really give the games new life.
Nothin' like a Jedi takin' on a dragon and a pack of orcs...talk about outmatched!
An amazing cyberpunk-themed mod that plays out like a very futuristic Counterstrike. Gameplay takes place between the 'real' world (meatspace) and a Tron-like network realm (cyberspace); certain obstacles cannot be bypassed until the team's Deckers hack into them and override them. A lot of the terminology is based on William Gibson's novels, and is an absolute joy for anyone who loves the cyberpunk genre.
Angels Fall First: Planetsorm - Unreal Tournament 3
MASSIVE combat mod, where battles take place in space between fleets and fighters before going planetside in a territory control-type mission setting. Amazing design models and a very unique feel.
Maybe some day, they'll see a hero is just a man who knowshe's free.
I have a real thing for Zombie games. So Zombie Master for HL2 is one of my faves. I prefer it over Zombie Panic Source since the Zombies are Zombie Stupid and not smart Players who dodge and crap like that.
