FileSpy: The Week's Best Demos, Mods, and More

Welcome, PC gamers, to GameSpy's weekly rundown on the best content our sister site, FilePlanet, has to offer. We serve as the Knights of New, sorting through all of the demos, mods, patches and promos FilePlanet posts each week and pick out the best of the best for you to download right here every Friday.


Fallout: New Vegas Essential Visual Enhancement Mod

Our fellow Wastelanders out there might recall a nice little mod for Fallout 3 known as Energy Visuals Enhanced, or just plain EVE. Well, EVE is now in New Vegas, and she's changed her name to the Essential Visual Enhancement. This time around, not only will your energy weapons get a visual upgrade, so will your critical kills, explosions, impacts, particles, static mesh animations, and more. If there is one thing New Vegas needs, it's a facelift. Get it with the Fallout: New Vegas Essential Visuals Enhancements Mod.



Doom 3 Sikk Mod

Seven years ago, id Software unleashed its atmospheric, visually stunning shooter, Doom 3, on the world. (Yup, we're getting old.) Boot up the game today, and she's not quite the looker she was -- hey, who is? That's where the Doom 3 Sikk Mod comes in. The file gives the shooter a complete visual makeover, bringing it close to today's standards. And that's not all, Sikk also rejiggers enemy health, AI, and your weapon specs, making the dark hallways of Mars more terrifying and challenging than ever. Stock up on flashlight batteries, it's time to play Doom 3 again.



Revamp The Witcher 2

Ready to take your Witcher 2 experience to the next level? You came to the right place. FilePlanet gathered five of the best mods for CD Projekt Red's dark fantasy RPG, giving you character, HUD, and UI options that make an already great game even better.

Tower Defense Games

You love 'em, FileSpy loves 'em, and thankfully, FilePlanet does, too. They're tower defense games, and our sister site was kind enough to dig up an array of some of the very best little-known titles the genre has to offer. Azgard Defense, Harvest Tower Defense, Master of Defense, Wicked Defense, and Dungeon Defense are all there for the downloading, and if we may be so bold as to recommend one in particular: Dungeon Defense. Part tower defense, part third-person RPG, Dungeon Defense offers a unique twist on the genre that will get you hooked on tower defense games all over again. Download all of these Undiscovered Tower Defense Games at FilePlanet.



Vampire Saga: Welcome to Hell Lock

It wouldn't be FileSpy without a demo, and this week's honor goes to Vampire Saga: Welcome to Hell Lock. Why this oddly named title? It's all about the mix of hidden objects and puzzle gameplay, two of our very favorite time killers. And there's a nice little mystery involved as well. We don't want to give anything away, but there might be a few fangers lurking about, so keep an eye out. Grab your wooden stake download the Vampire Saga: Welcome to Hell Lock today.


That wraps up another week of FileSpy. As always, thanks to Justin, Paul, et al at FilePlanet -- not to mention all you modders out there -- for doing the heavy lifting and giving PC gamers everywhere new ways to expand the titles they love and new games to fall in love with.
