Default About the game


While all the games on the pack are worth raving about , the one thing that stands apart on this collection is “Team Fortress 2” with it being the only mutiplayer game of the lot .

Based on the original Team Fortress and Team Fortress Classic , the new Team Fortress 2 is miles apart as far as game presentation counts . Lets just say considering everything , this is by far the most unique multiplayer game that I have personally come across .

The game is very different when compared to other games on the pack . One would expect Valve to have woven the game in some kind of story line relating to the Half Life world , but it is not . This makes it stand without a standard story line with only one piece of history that has prevailed in the game universe that supports the game as it stands .
The Eternal fight of “ The Reds Vs The Blues ”

The game has a very 70-80’s feel to it . In one sense this is what makes it appealing , with most multiplyer games nowadays have catered to the present to mostly futuristic aspects of war , TF2 comes across as a welcome change , with its bright , cel shaded , funny characters .


Initially labeled as “vapourware” given its long time under development , and various hiccups along the way , it seemed that it would share the ranks of Duke Nukem Forever in its infamy of not delivering the goods . But I am thankful that Valve has proven me wrong here .

The Player starts off with a choice of selecting either of the teams , red or blue , or you can select “ random “ where the game assigns you a team depending on the number of players already playing on the teams . Once that is done with , you are given 9 player classes to choose from , and then introduced in the game at a spawn point . But more about that later .

MEDIC + Heavy == Uber Pwnage+ Total Carnation

Too bad the medic cant keep up with the scout. . , that would have been soo coool. . .but it is commendable how they have managed to pull back some ability of every class to make them less dominating and more dependent on the support of their teammates . . which is just the rite formula for any team based multiplayer game. .

I am already a total addict of the game . . i just hope it catches up in INDIA as well so we can get some "populated" servers here . . Dammit tired of playing @ Singapore n Chinese servers. . .although its Fun . . you can say nything in HINDI and they dont understand shit [If you no wat i MEAN ]

Great review there SharekhaN!!! Written in simple and easy to understand terms even for a guy whose completely new to the series... Repped!!

Though I must add that even though I was playing this game for the first time, it just took me 3 rounds to grasp the basic fundas of the game and 1 round for understanding the working of each class, which must be an achievement considering my grasping power...

Apart from the above, this is one game which I could easily play even when getting pings of 200-300, if you don't mind not being the sniper of course

Absolutely LOVE this game!


VALVE!!!
