Recently an online group of gamers that I frequently game with turned me towards Team Fortress 2. At first look I thought that this was not my type of game. Wow was I wrong! Team Base action game with non stop action! The graphics are cartoony, there is definitely some weird attire, weapons are things you never heard of, and the characters are ,well, characters, but the great thing about all of that is it is a game and all those things make it more fun. Yes, the action shooters such as Battlefield and Call of Duty are my bread and butter but the relief I get from playing this game, the pure gaming enjoyment is a wonderful feeling! It's simply fun!

The best part for the rest of the world is that it is now currently FREE to play. Yes, FREE! I however was one of the lucky last few to purchase the game, not knowing it was going to be free in 48 hours I spent a measely $10, but as you can probably guess from the comments above, it was worth it. Now, the game is free to play but there are some things that will cost you. From time to time throughout the game you will "find" special new weapons, hats, and creates, you can also purchase weapons, hats, and various other items. If you do find a crate you can trade it or purchase the key for it and receive an item that corresponds to that crate number. I have purchased a couple keys and all I have ever received is a couple hats, so the keys are not really worth it to me, so the next ones I will most likely trade. Weapons and items you find during the game can also be used to craft new weapons and items.

There are so many things I could try to talk about reference this game but my knowledge of the game is absolutely minimal. I must say thanks to the TWD guys and others for at least keeping me headed in the right direction. Team based game play (most of the time), objectives, fun characters, crazy weapons, and wacked out hats, all I can say is TF2 = FUN! Go download it today and join us for a game or two or three or four or five...
