Empires (computer game)
Article about two game mods. One was for Battlefield 1942 mod (which according to the article was a total flop). The other (Half Life 2 mod) is still in development, therefore being vaporware and crystal balling. 261 unique googles when searching for ["Empires" "Battlefield 1942" -wikipedia]; most of these appear to be entries in "lists of mods" run by game fansites, and there are several "From the creators of the Battlefield mod, it's now coming to HL2"-esque confusions. Changing the games in the searchstring comes up with 241 unique hits. Article has minimal content. Information appears to be unverifiable through the use of reliable sources, and does not appear to meet the proposed guideline at Notability (software) -- Saberwyn 03:16, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

 * Comment - The most notable and reliable source that this mod exists is from Valve Software from one of their press/marketing releases found here. Because of Valve's Steam content delivery system, that message will have reached at least a million people.  Most people within the Half-Life gaming community will know of this mod in passing at least.  The mod is currently in Beta, and has clocked up almost 3 million player minutes in the last month.  I've not even played this mod (it sounds rubbish), but from my perspective and looking at the stats, it's more notable than Kreedz Climbing and GoldenEye: Source. - Hahnch  e  n 12:34, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
