FPS Goodness: Team Fortress 2

by Grimblast on Jun.13, 2009, under Gaming

Well after some boredom struck, I decided to finally pickup the Orange Box since it had so much bundled with it for an affordable price.  I got the opportunity last night to try TF 2 and boy is it fun!  I can probably play that for several hours on end and not get tired of it.   I like how the game gives your class a personality and randomly says things when you blow up some players or when you kill your ‘nemesis’.  AKA, the player that has killed you a lot that match.  You can execute some funny actions to say or throw back at the enemy or call for a medic so they can see you on their HUD and come heal you.  So far I’ve played as a medic and demoman.  The demo man makes me laugh due to his accent they gave him.  So fitting that his melee weapon is a bottle heh.

But since I’m not up to typing a huge critique article due to being at work, follow the links in this post to get an idea what the game looks like.  They have a real winner with the way the game appears, sounds, and plays.  It’s simple and affordable.  I may come back to edit this post or make a seperate one on my findings in the game.  They recently patched it so there are a few new things in it I guess.  But back to work for me!

    I’m glad you got me onto the orange box. It’s effectively 5 games for less than $30. You can’t get a much better deal (and I never gave the original HL2 a try, so it’s a pretty good experience).

    Portal is insanely fun. The advanced maps are quite the challenge!
