Zero Punctuation: Guitar Hero III



Another review from the Escapist magazine

How to Make Comics With Half-Life 2


The process is relatively simple. You only need Half-Life 2.  Counter-Strike: Source, and Day of Defeat: Source are reccommended, along with the other Half-Life 2 games. Follow these easy steps to make a comic:

1. Download Garry's Mod 9, or purchase Garry's Mod 10* via Steam. It's only 10 dollars.
2. Open up your version of Garry's Mod.
3. Begin to post models and ragdolls with the physics gun.
4. Take screenshots of the models.

NOTE: Photoshop is required for these steps.
5. Open up Photoshop.
6. Create a new document with whatever size you want.
7. Open up your screenshots and resize them to fit your new document.
8. Create speech bubbles and text.
9. Save it as a .jpg file, and you're done!

* Garry's Mod 10 is frequently updated, with new content as Source games are released. It has online multiplayer too.
