Team Fortress 2 on Sale Today

Team Fortress 2 for $9.99 TODAY

TF2 is a first-person shooter (FPS) where you can choose from one of nine totally distinct classes. The art reminds me of some of my favorite cartoonists (Tex Avery, for example), the game play is smooth and relatively intuitive, and the voice functions work wonderfully. The game has hilarious elements, too, like witty sayings from each of the characters, to weapons like the Sandvich (doesn't shoot, gives you health) or the Sandman (just released baseball that stuns people at a distance).

If you've played UT, Tribes, Half Life, or any of the older FPS titles (Doom, Quake, Duke Nukem), then you'll probably love this game. If you do buy it and want to connect for a match, let me know here, by e-mail, or via Steam.

Besides, Facebook is nice for connecting with people you left behind years ago and sharing embarrassing pictures, but you can connect in TF2 and blow each other up! Way more fun!
