Mods have kept the series alive for twelve years. It has not only 3 pretty good games, but when you include new story/total conversion mods, it’s as if it has no fewer than 10 good entries in the franchise! franchise, which is now a twelve year old franchise. Even 2, no even 1 is quite rare, since gaming is in such a sorry state these days.

It is very rare for a game franchise to receive 3 good games.
