Team Fortress 2

I Love Team Fortress 2. Multiplayer madness doesn't get any better than this. Nothing beats the feeling of backstabbing that heavy that is raining hell on your team or headshotting that rival sniper for the tenth time in a row or backburning that heavy to the ground or almost killing the entire enemy team with strategically placed sticky’s or or or or or.

Let me tell you how I got into Team Fortress 2. I bought The Orange Box when it launched. I played Team Fortress 2 a bit but didn’t really get into it I rather focused on all the other awesome games on it. Later on my non gaming friend told me that he saw this game that looks fun. Now when I say non gaming I mean no games at all, he will maybe play a little bit when he is at my place but wont install it on his own pc. Well he ended up buying the game and called me and said I should join him. So I installed it again and once I “got” the game it hooked me. What made it even better was that all my friends who had The Orange box but never really played it started playing because we would talk about our "awesome moments" all the time. This game single handedly turned my friend into a gamer.

Every time I think that I have had enough they release a new update and by update I don’t mean some bug fixes sure they do fix some bugs but they actually update the entire game by adding new maps adding new guns and tweaking the gameplay so that the game stays fresh.

Valve is truly a company of extreme high standards. I mean this game was launched in 2007 as part of The Orange Box and Valve is still releasing major updates. Just the other day they released and update that added some weapons and maps. For those not yet playing Team Fortress 2 Valve does not charge any subscription or any hidden costs. You buy the game and that is it (not to mention that Team Fortress 2 is included in the best deal of all time which is called the Orange Box containing 5 AAA titles for the price of one) they update, maintain and improve it free of charge. Other gaming companies can really learn a thing or two from Valve.
