1. GTA IV Superheroes

Game Required For Mod: GTA IV Welcome to the weird and wonderful world of GTA 4 modding. For years fans have been messing with Rockstar€™s heavy hitter. Like Skyrim, there are tweak mods to make it prettier, to expand the game's plot etc. But the real fun is in the strange mods. User, Ac.Amir is responsible for some of the best alternative character models that you can find for GTA IV. Characters like The Incredible Hulk (pictured above) are complete redesigns, with their own custom animation files. Get it here. A bunch of other characters are also available in the pack linked to above including Batman, a Spartan from Halo, Rorschach from Watchmen and much more. How to install these models:

"Use Spark IV to browse your GTA file directory. Import the new animation files into GTAIV -> PC -> Anim -> anim.img and import the new model files into GTAIV -> PC -> models -> cdimages -> playerped.rpf. For a more authentic Hulk experience, use the Simple Trainer highlighted above to activate god mode and consider employing something like the Mega Super Jump script."

Speaking of god mode...

You can play the entire game as Superman, as with the Hulk in the example above, you can combine a series of mods to turn Nico into the Man of Steel. The Superman mod will let take off and blast through the air, while being basically unstoppable. PC Gamer have provided full installation instructions here. Get the mod here. That about does it for now. Please share your favourite gaming mods in the comments below...
