To be accurate, Garys Mod is actually a sandbox for games with source engines, such as Counter Strike Source or Half Life 2. And since there is no predefined goal, they've pretty much broken it for you. So you need a game that has a Soure engine (previously mentioned, Team Fortress 2, Portal, Left 4 Dead) to be able to play it. Although you might be disappointed that there are no extremely complex equations (the rest of us have to be able to play too, you know...) it is still a very fun, creative, and advanced-thought-process-needed game. If you want, I can let you borrow my steam account to download Gmod and some source games to try out the game for a week or two. I'd just switch the password before and after you would use it.
Holy crap, the prospect of limited Steam...that's a lot of DotA.

Huh, I'll look this game up. I really like games with good physics engines. They're so much fun to play with and attempt to break.
I totally know what you mean about video games being a possible alternate career. Until I decided to get into Physics, I wanted to be a game developer/writer. I still often think about making some games in my spare time (if I truly have any, lol!).

@Ryu:
Ah, yeah I have none of those games, lol. And right now I have dial-up. Blah. Still, thanks man!
I'd rather see in shades of gray.

Always good to know more dedicated gamers.

I like Phoenix Wright, I think the guys had to do that dance to 'earn' something.
btw, that Pikachu guy is my hero.
'performance-enhancing cheese' ... you're a pretty clever guy, it seems. I think I'll subscribe.
