Valve's Source engine is starting to show its age, despite frequent upgrades. That doesn't mean it's worth throwing out, though. Even though we may never see Half-Life 3 in our lifetimes, there's still plenty of awesome stuff going on in the Source sandbox to keep us occupied. Enterprising modders have used the technology to create a flabbergasting variety of cool stuff. We talked about the Best Game Mods in general, but now we'll focus on Source alone, because it more than deserves the attention. In this article, we'll share eleven of the most ambitious Source mods ever released and tell you where to get them.

The Source engine runs a staggering variety of incredible games, but you don't have to work at Valve to to get in there. These intensely cool mods are made by fans just like you.

| 1 | Elevator: Source |
Let's close this list out with a mod that's so completely bizarre it needs to be played to be believed. Elevator: Source requires Garry's Mod to play, so get that first. This mod isn't exactly a game, more like an experience. You boot it up and you're in an elevator. You go from floor to floor, and every time the doors open they show you a weird, unexpected landscape. Sometimes people get on, sometimes they get off. Awkward conversations sometimes ensue. And you can play it co-op, if being alone in an elevator with total strangers freaks you out.
