Again, we've looked at this one before, but it deserves a revisit - it's a very cool idea, and you can either strand some whales or leave them very happy. In this mod, you can either have a version of Los Santos with no water, one that is waterlogged like a tsunami just came through, or a version that is completely underwater like the lost city of Atlantis. Los Santos: No Water / A Lot of Water / Way Too Much Water It's not quite No Man's Sky, but it's pretty exciting to see this kind of work coming from a modding team. This one lets you get in a rocket ship and travel beyond the boundaries of Earth, with three moons and 11 planets to explore. This one sends you beyond the boundaries of Los Santos.and Earth itself. Being able to literally stop your enemies in their tracks is satisfying, even if you have to stop yourself as well. Basically, the world only moves when you move, so you can plan everything out in advance and move very strategically to put down your enemies.

Superhot was a pretty wonderful game, and while there's more content available for it now, we really like the idea of taking the gameplay model of Superhot and applying it to an open world like this. You'll have to subscribe to the creator's Patreon at the $2 tier to get it, but hey, it's pretty great. In fact, it looks like a substantially better realisation of Iron Man than the last official Iron Man game (Iron Man 2 on Xbox 360/PS3, which was rubbish). This Iron Man zips around at a tremendous pace, and has all the weapons you would want. We've covered this one before, but it's pretty impressive, so we wanted to highlight it again. If you think you've picked Los Santos apart, give these a look. There are hundreds of great GTA 5 mods out there, but these eight really stand out to us as particularly inventive, cool, and worthwhile. A lot of those sales are on PC, and modders have really gone to town on GTA 5, picking and poking at it to see what's possible in this engine. Grand Theft Auto 5 is still going strong, recently passing a frankly ludicrous 85 million sales worldwide.

The Grand Theft Auto 5 modding scene has exploded since the game's PC release - here are some of our favourites.
