Team Fortress 2

Category: Wargaming

Right now, I have that feeling little kids get on Christmas morning. I just bought Team Fortress 2 on Steam for $30. Yes, I know that I could gotten a better deal if I bought the Orange box before the official release of TF2, but I didn’t have enough money at the time. Yes, I could have still bought the Orange box for an additional $20 that would include the Half-Life 2 bundle. It would not be worth it to me. I would never have found the time to play Half-Life 2 and I could better use that $20 to go towards coffee.

For those of you that are confused right now and don’t know what Team Fortress 2 is:

I pull up my Steam window. 67% downloaded @ 2.2 MB/s.

I love the IST building’s network where I can be free from Rescom’s bandwidth restrictions.

It’s now 80% completed @ 2.5MB/s.

Anticipation and excitement are seriously starting to build up. I really hope the game meets my high expectations. Team Fortress Classic was one of my favorites when Valve released Half-Life. TF2 has been in development for such a long time now. I’m just happy that it is finally here.

Done.


Here is a video of my favorite character (Valve really did a great job with his personality):

    I have never heard of Team Fortress 2, but it looks pretty cool. I love the Heavy’s quote that people could outsmart him, but he has not met anyone who could outsmart a bullet.

    As great as TF2 is (was just playin’ it myself) you HAVE to go Orange Box. Portal alone is worth it, man.
