Re: HL2 SP mods Here's a few I can recommend:
Metastasis- probably THE Half-Life 2 Mod to get. It does nothing new in terms of gameplay, but it's got some exemplary level design and just enough story to keep you wondering.
Coastline to Atmosphere- very lengthy Mod. A bit repetitive, a bit aggravating in places, and a bit confusing at times, but it's probably one of the largest Mods I've seen for the game yet, and I definitely recommend it.
Mistake of Pythagoras- definitely something out of left field, as it completely turns the standard HL2 experience on its head. Yet I love playing it! If you played "Peaces Like Us" or "Sweet Half-Life" from HL1- this is the same guy.
Dolores- This one creeps me out. You're a little girl with a special ability, in a big dark house with a terrible secret. It can be difficult, but I think it's worth it.
Cinematic Mod- yeah, it just dressed up HL2 and Episode 1 nice and pretty. Really pretty. Really, REALLY pretty. If you've got the hardware to handle the textures I say give it a try.
SMOD Tactical- Sort of a branch-off of the rather silly SMOD, Tactical puts a number of real-world guns in your hands and tightens up the rules considerably. Headshots WILL kill you, and your gun is wildly inaccurate unless you use its iron sights (complete with affected peripheral vision). Great if you want to make HL2 a bit more complex and dangerous.
You could also give HMS Defiance, Riot Act and The Citizen a go- while not the best Mods out there, they're worth a play at the very least.
I enjoyed Get A Life quite a bit myself. And yes, I jumped when I saw the "human spiders" .
