    Team Fortress 2 fits for everyone.
    So yeah, there's a lot of cartoon gore, bodies blow up in a blood filled explosions and it may not be suitable for the lower ages (though you may find 8 year olds playing it and cussing severly), but mainly this game is for everyone.
    While playing the game, anyone can find his own gameplay style and favorite class, While I prefer Pyro and Medic, you might excell at being a spy, or soldier or any of the classes.
    As the game offers, the game indeed has unique gameplay for each of the nine classes- Engineer (which builds teleports, sentry guns, and dispensers), Demoman (Plants stickies, which are Pipe bombs that attach to walls and ceilings, and also shoots grenades), Heavy (Uses Mini-gun and basically the most powerfull class In-game, but very slow), Spy (Uses disguises and invisibillity to infilitrate enemy lines and backstab/sap their Engineer structures), Pyro (Burns, Burns, Burns), Soldier (Uses rocket-jumps and basically blows up stuff), Scout (Extremely fast and used to capture Intel, which is the flag, and capture points), Medic (Heals stuff and has a special ability to go invincible plus another team member for couple of seconds), and Sniper (Bewm Headshot).
    Several game modes are included, the classic CTF (Capture The Flag), CP (Capture points), and Payload which is a game mode in which you drag a cart, and the red team has to stop it.
    The game also has achievement system (At the time of writing only two, Pyro and medic) that earns the happy achievers new weapons for their class.
    All this is nice and good, but there's only one way in which your team will win, and it's co-operation, if you won't listen and go solo, it'll be lot harder for you, but of course, some can manage by doing that also.
    to sum it up, if you like online co-operation and humor, TF2 is the best choice for you.

      Team Fortress 2 is addicting. While writing this review I want to play it right now. The gameplay is that good. For those who don't know, Team Fortess 2 is a sequel to a mod which came out out way back for Quake 3. It is a class based online multiplayer shooter. You can choose beetween nine different classes, from the speedy Scout to the all-offensive Heavy Weapons Guy. You play across 7 different maps each with their own special mode. With modes like Capture the Flag and Control Points. Team F...

      First thing noticeable about Team Fortress 2 is the visual art style. Derivation from 1950's and 60's advertising automatically centers this game around the rare category of quirky and unique themed games this generation. Where squad based realistic shooters dominate the market, TF2 is an oasis in this time of need. Don't let the name fool you however, the games Fortresses take a backseat to the classes. There's no shortage of abundance as you take control of nine highly unique classes across t...
