Team Fortress 2 selling at $2.49 for a limited time

We're Practically (But Not Actually) GIVING the Game Away!
October 29, 2009 - Robin Walker

From now until 2:00pm PDT, Team Fortress will be available on Steam for the horrifyingly (to our accountants) low price of $2.49! What else can you buy for that price? That's not a rhetorical question, we're interested in all the things we can buy once those $2.49s start rolling in.

Robin "Twofortyninenaire" Walker

Get Team Fortress 2 for yourself or treat a friend.
If you don't own this game, you should by the time you're done reading this post. Less than three bucks for one of the best online multiplayer games you'll ever play? Plus sustained updates? Hell, buy ten copies, and your Christmas presents for this year are sorted.

Wow, I wonder what brought this on. Make me paranoid. Still, very nice.

I played Team Fortress 2 for about 10 minutes on 360 before giving up. Maybe the PC version is much better, but I didn't think it was that great.

Just forget the 360 version exists. It is nothing compared to the PC version. So much has changed that the Xbox can't possibly catch up at this point.

I suspected as much, what with these mythical 'patches' that you PC types keep talking about.

Unbelievable. TF2 was cheap at its regular price of $19.99. Time for me to send the game to the few people I know who don't have it yet.

Yes, we should all get together and play TF2. I suck at it, so be warned!

Not only that but it's flatout hard to play the game properly with a controller instead of a keyboard and mouse. The updates are glorious though. I have the PS3 and PC version of the Orange Box and the difference is huge. It's like two different games.

I wish I'd known about this sooner. I totally would have skipped school for this.

Right, so this was because Forte says he doesn't like himself. I want him to like himself a bit more.

I would be up for it if I wasn't too lazy to switch into Windows and get my mouse up from behind the couch.

But I am.

Re: Team Fortress 2 selling at $2.49 for a limited time

I already have TF2, though...but, it was one of the best opportunities ever for people who didn't have it yet. Shame they couldn't have held it for longer, I've got a cousin who was thinking about this game...

And yeah, PC version for the ultimate win. Custom maps, new unlockable items and weapons, mods, the works. I honestly can't imagine playing Heavy without the Sanvich or Pyro without the Flare Gun, and the Sniper's bow, the Huntsman, is fun on a stick.

Re: Team Fortress 2 selling at $2.49 for a limited time

The new map is pretty fun. I still don't have the Gibus mask yet, but I got the other achievements. Will have to play again tomorrow or something. Only teammates had it, and nobody dominated them so I no chance to get one.
