Games MODs - A selection of those we found
The amazing MOD news team bring you games that (almost) changed the world (or not). As with all news casts please come to the news website and comment on the news items. In this case tell us what you thought about the games we have found.

The first "game" in this selection is anything but a game - it is a game "ladder and bank" whatever that means. But it seemed to us that lots of features would be available for playing with Gold and so forth plus there were whispers of this being a requirement for future games.

Now on to the games:
Hangman Thread. I was unsure if this MOD ever got made but as you will see by the end of this news cast that doesn't matter too much.

Poker. (MWP Thread)
(http://www.arackspace.com/weevaa/MODs/poker.zip)
This game seems well tested and is ready for users to check out.

Blackjack (MWP Thread)
(http://www.geocities.com/john_dinh_n/blackj.zip)
Another Clasic game brought to you by the letters M and W and the number 3...

PACK OF GAMES
This huge MOD left all others standing in shear scope if nothing else.

Here are the files and what they do.
--> games.asp - Main file. Has some text hard-coded in, so change it to read how you want it to.
--> games_blackjack.asp - Runs the blackjack game
--> games_hangman.asp - Runs the hangman game. Also needs images in /images/hangman/--> games_hangit.txt - A text file that holds all of the hangman words
--> games_snake.asp - The main snake game (also 2 images in the main folder)--> score.asp - Used as I-Frame in snake game to show score--> finalscore.asp - Snake game calls this page after finish to calculate score
--> games_tetris.asp - The main Tetris file.--> thescore.asp - A little window that pops up to display the final score. Also tallies the score for the database.
--> inc_top_short2.asp - File that contains some functions used in the pop up windows
--> games_allmembers.asp - The games.asp page shows the Top 10 Leaderboard, but this pop-up will show the entire list of members, their points, wins, losses, and total games. It is sorted by total points (gold).

All of these files are available from links on the thread linked to by this large section. It should also shortly be available at Max Web Edit as I understand that they are planning to upload the zip file to a server sometime today.

Try these games out and let us know what you think.
