Bahahahaha.

I was a 360 TF2 guy until I upgraded my PC and the difference really is night and day. It is pretty obvious Valve feels the same way. The support Valve gives TF2 on the PC is unmatched in all of online gaming...Too bad the 360 doesn't get the love but they really are two different games - quality wise anyways.

Also the game online was basically DOA because there were so many good 360 games coming out at the same time. Quite a shame but thats the nature of today's console world.

This thread has gotten way too big to read all the way through, so I'll just ask.

Anyone sent the gnome to space? I read up on people saying it was tedious and difficult, but I ended up doing it anyway and I have to say there's only one tedious part and that's the helicopter chase scene. If you can get the gnome in the car right, though, you can still get through most of the chase without losing him once.

There's still a healthy contingent that plays it online. I usually play TF2 about 4-5 times a week and never have a hard time finding a game.

I haven't played it on the PC and I'm sure it's much better. Doesn't surprise me to hear that Valve supports the PC that much more than 360 though I wish that wasn't the case.

Well, I own the game for PC and all I have to say is Pyro should be banned from the game. My goodness, lighting people on fire and running away is the biggest bull ****.

Start playing Heavy and get a medic buddy...Mowing down Pyros is very satisfying.

Black Mesa (a mod recreating the original Half-Life with the updated Source engine) has (finally) been released. Just playing now on Steam. The new changes such as updated graphics and physics make returning to Black Mesa excellent. Can download here: http://www.shacknews.com/article/757...-mesa-now-live

Note that it isn't 100% complete and the mod ends right before Xen.
