See that on the left. That’s Travis Touchdown inhabiting the role of Francis inLeft 4 Dead, as modded byDethKlan. DethKlan doesn’t likeLeft 4 Dead 2, which is stupid, but they make an awesome mod, so they’ll get a pass this time. You can download their workhere.
Arguably even more fun is the mod on the right, which turnsTeam Fortress 2‘s Scout into a much sexier, stupider, maladjusted young man. The programmers at MechaWare really went all out on this one, creating aNMH-themed energy drink mod and baseball bat to go along with the Travis skin. All pretty awesome stuff. See video of ithere, and grab the whole packagehere.
It would be great to see these mods sanctioned by Grasshopper and whoever (if anyone) bringsNo More Heroesto the PS3/360 in the USA and Europe. That way, they could given out as promotional DLC on the home console builds ofL4DandTF 2. Travis Touchdown is a strange, unfamiliar figure to many PS3/360 owners, and getting to know him via these two very popular games could only work to raise consumer interest in the character.
I don’t playL4DorTeam Fortress 2regularly, but if I had the option to play either of those games as Travis and the other killers fromNo More Heroes, I’d be tempted to rectify that situation.
