I wonder what PCGamer pays these guys Manke and Ente.It's a shame that Neil has to get a non gaming job to pay his bills.Some company should take advantage of his abilities and hire him.I'd like him to do an Alice levelpack.He'd do it justice.

hm, too bad to see he's almost broke. I thought almost any game company would be eager to pick him up since he's well known and his levels are amazing

"Neil Manke: After Darkstar, former PC Gamer 'Disc Editor' Bill Harms requested that we do a mod with "tons and tons" of zombies because "everyone loves zombies"

Christ, that sounds just like one of those PC Lamer/Daily Radar morons. At least the suits at Imagine were smart enough to add "former" to Bill's title.

I've noticed a steady increase in the quality of his work, too. Darkstar was neat. Fun enough to make me complete it. They Hunger 1 was really cool. They Hunger 2 was even better. I'm amazed TH hasn't shown up in the various Valve Half-life re-releases such as Platinum. (someone slap me if it is indeed in platinum, but I don't think it is)
