Mount and Blade doesn't let you build a catapult out of buckets and street cones and weld it to an airship built of watermelons. Garry's Mod does. There is only one right choice.

You will be so glad you chose HL2+Gmod.

GMOD+HL2, cause you also get other awesome mods too, like nightmare house 2.

That it does, but you will be limited to TF2 props and what you get from the SDK base.

All the tools used to manipulate stuff come with Gmod. You will only get Tf2 props(ragdolls, items, etc). I would recommend getting HL2 with Gmod because of the wide variety of generic stuff in HL2 such as couches and crates.

You get all the tools and the GMOD/TF2 maps, however the props that you can spawn and work with would just be TF2 stuff and a good portion of hl2's(from the SDK), which for the most part will be fine in single player, but when you go into multiplayer where CSS props and stuff is used alot you may find yourself with a bunch of errors. And you can also download custom model packs too to add to your library.

As much as I love Garry's Mod I'd have to give it to Mount and Blade. It's single and multiplayer is hella addictive.

You need almost every Valve game to have Garys Mod work properly. The game will run with any Valve game but ALL servers use textures and models from EVERY Valve game.

If you dont have X game, then textures and models from X game will result in a giant "ERROR" model. And you need to download WIRE (mod) and some other stuff. Its not as simple as buy, install and play.

Actually alot of the times having PHX3 is more important than: portal, DoD:S, Ep1, Deathmatch, HL:S,.

Regardless, I dont think anyone wants an "error" model or purple/black tile textures, so to get the full experience, all games must be owned.

And to the TC, if you do plan on getting GMOD with all the games, I suggest you buy CSS from a retail store since it comes with DOD:S free. Buying it on Steam for the same price does not give you DOD:S.

mine is around 4.5gb right now after a new install, but as you play awhile and install mods and maps it will probably reach 6-8gb.

I actually like M&B Warband w/mods of course but HL2 w/GM is probably the better one
