Team Fortress 2

lawliet's Team Fortress 2 (Retail Standalone) (PC) review

An Amazing FPS at a great Price

Team Fortress 2 is the sequel to Team Fortress Classic which is a mod for Half-Life. There are 2 default modes in TF2. Capture the Flag and control points. Capture the flag is pretty much any capture the flag in any game, and control points is where you find your enemys control points and stand on them to slowly capture them. If one team has all control points, they win. Every class is balanced, like the heavy class deals a lot of damage, but is ridiculously slow, and is slower while firing. There is no such thing as a hunted class. And valve keeps patching in new modes and weapons. You can get new weapons by getting a certain amount of achivements for the class. Like the pyro who gets a  Axe that does double damage if there on fire. The game isn't the best FPS out there, but it's one of them. With a great price of $20 and a graphics style that makes the game hilarous at times,  I give 4 1/2 stars to this game, and recommend it to any FPS fan.

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...
