The Shrine

Dear Tessian,

Why are you so good at this game?

Dear everyoneelse,

Why are you not playing with us? I know street fighter just came out, and dawn of war 2 comes out really soon, and killzone 2 even comes out next week. However, that doesn't mean you can't spare a little time to play some team fortress with your buddy bovine.

I'm going to try and fix my PC again this Saturday and I'll start playing with you all.

I have my 360 version if you'd like to set up a time.

Of course, I'd like to do Hardcore Horde too....

I'm glad that at least someone was there to witness my ownage... for the record I rarely end up doing that well, I think a good deal of it I owe to having my own personal medic At the end of one round I was #1 on our team and you were #2 so you're no slouch.

Don't know how/why I got so addicted to this again... and the Scout update is coming out next week so watch out!

Also, we're talking about the GOOD version of TF2, the one on the PC-- sorry Zeus

Yeah. Fucking Microshaft for not letting them update it for free on the 360. And even you have to admit they deserve the nickname for that one

Eh, it was your own stupid fault for not getting a Valve game on PC. Forget the free updates, the situation with servers itself is a huge difference. MANY more servers, mods, more people in game, etc.

All Valve games are PC games that are downgraded to fit into the console world. This is contrary to most games these days which are console games ported to PC, but it's important to remember. You didn't even learn your lesson with TF2 and got L4D for Xbox too...

Honestly, I'm not too much of a PC gamer or even multiplayer gamer. My Live Gold card ran out nearly a month ago and I haven't renewed it 'cause I just haven't played online in nearly a month (on top of why I think you shouldn't have to, this is another reason why I don't want to pay for Gold). Gears 2 and L4D are anomolies for me (and dammit, we need to play Horde on Hardcore; I'm around on Sunday) in how much I've played them online (because of how much they rule).

I actually have never played TF2 believe it or not. Just don't know of enough people who have it, on either PC or 360 (other than you guys). In general, I know more people who play on the 360 than the PC, you guys here are basically the only steady PC gamers I know. So there's really no reason for me to get anything for the PC. Not to mention I don't have a particularly good video card 'cause I just have no reason to splurg on one. And on top of all that, I get the trade-in deals for the 360 games and not the PC so I get them for cheaper too (got L4D for about $27 Cdn).

whine whine whine...

I love TF2 cause while it's more fun with friends it's awesome as a game that you can play for any amount of time. Play whenever, quit whenever, so you don't have to have time dedicated to play. Just great for whenever I have some time but not a lot to play. Perfect pick-up game

Remember, it's Valve games for the PC, and Bethesda games for the 360.
