Ah, Team Fortress, hello friend. As you may be able to see I play this game on regular basis and there is a solid reason for that; this game is bloody amazing.

What do I hate most about so many FPS games these days? THERE SO SERIOUS! Jesus christ, the reason Borderlands took off so well is because how DIFFERENT it was. The FPS genre has became a stale pile of grey, serious colour schemes and weird Kevin Spacey animations. Team Fortress 2 breaks this stale trend; it throws piss at it, hits it with a fish and gives it a hat to make it feel better.

So, what makes this game SO different. Well, the obvious reason, THE ART STYLE. This pixar-like art style makes everything look so fun and vibrant. Unlike games like Battlefield 3-4, these classes are easy to tell apart, all with very different features and looks. Secondly, the humour! This game is such a great example of satire done well. It makes everything that is normally serious, gritty and dark, comedical and fun. The random dialog that comes out of the Sniper's mouth will never cease to make me laugh. Finally, the gameplay! Bloody hell is this gameplay refined to perfection. It takes the most important aspects of an FPS game and refines them to their peak. Everything works so well and the class/weapon balance (except for the Pyro, at times) is just so perfect!

So, get this game. It's free. There is no logical explanation for you not to buy this, just do it!

(BTW the way this game just might be better than Hotline Miami and if you know me, that's pretty had to beat)
