It is really hard to make the review smaller than 400 words, because this is an infinite game. This game is awesome for a lot more things - the new GMOD Tower (up to 128 players), the TF2TD servers (Have you ever played tower defense? This is that with Team Fortress 2 characters), the RP servers (role-play), the other gamemodes and that you can do whatever you want. While most games are FPS, RTS and things like that, this can be whatever you want - a strategy game, a racing game, a puzzle, EVEN hamsterball. No other game ever created can do that. While some people say that the sky is the limit, here are limits to your ability to wake up long enough to enjoy this. It uses the Steam multiplayer system which has no problems.
You can buy it in the Steam store ( www.steampowered.com ) for the VERY low price of 5.99 Euro. There is only 1 problem with this game - you must have another Source engine game in your computer to launch it. Even better if you have Counter Strike: Source, Team Fortress 2, Portal, Half-Life 2 and all of it's episodes, without them (and some files downloadable from www.garrysmod.org) you would only see lots of errors.

Edit: Recently we got achievements for GMod so the price was 50% off, if you didn't buy it when you knew about it - you made the worst decision in your life.
