![]() Valve has either dropped the coolest "troll" post in TF2 blog history or we have something really awesome coming our way. The latest update to the TF2 blog has mention of a guard dog. If you aren't up on the details I will give you a quick refresher. Someone created this awesome shop of a new class/weapon so to speak within in Team Fortress 2. Yesterday someone sent it off to Robin Walker and he noted it was "quite awesome". Today's blog update has letter from the infamous Saxton Hale of Jar… More |

If you managed to play some Team Fortress 2 today you may have heard about "Halo-gate". No this isn't a reference to that crappy console game that the kiddies go gaga over its about this little halo on the right. Yes, the good boys and girls of TF2 landed themselves a nice halo as a hat add-on.Notice I said "good boys and girls". Those of you who thought it wise to use that nasty little "idle program" out there to try and earn yourself some hats and various other accessories just had their ha… More

![]() A massive Team Fortress 2 update has hit the Valve servers tonight though there are no new classes updates. Valve is calling this the "classless update" but there are still plenty of goodies to sort through. The biggest news is probably the addition of "King of the Hill" mode which plays like Pipeline stage 3 on crack. Three minutes to completely capture the hill and it is pure insanity. You have to hold the point for three minutes after a short delay of the point being inactive. If the other… More

The new maps are pretty awesome. Both payload maps, Hoodoo and Pipeline are a blast and the only serious flaw lies with Pipeline and the final round advantage needing to be re… More

![]() Tell me this isn't bad ass. A jar of piss? In a Valve game? April Fool's come true! Check it out on the blog. I'll write more about this update shortly. I am in the middle of cooking tacos. Tacos are done and they kick ass per usual. The applications of Jarate are pretty awesome: 1. When tossed on enemies they take 35% more damage. If I was soaked in piss I imagine my defenses would probably go down as well. 2. Jarate disables a Spy's cloaking device. Electronics vs. Piss, I guess that mak… More

![]() The above image image may set off pacemakers and cause cold chills as it is the visage of awesomeness. Thursday is D-day when it comes to the next Team Fortress 2 update. The Sniper and The Spy, new maps, new achievements and hats, yes hats. It should be loaded with new toys to play with. One of those new toys is The Ambassador, the Spy's revolver replacement which apparently packs quite the wallop. It has the ammo count of the revolver but packs even more of a punch and features pin point ac… More

![]() The Sniper update Spy update rolls on today. Yes you read that right. Seems Valve dropped a little surprise on our hands and we are getting two class updates this time around. Today's reveal is two new upgrades for the dear ole spy. Quite a few people complained about his effectiveness yesterday after The Razorback update for the Sniper but the dear ole Spy has some new toys of his own. First up is The Dead Ringer. This watch allows the Spy to feign death so to speak, but not in that TFC way… More

![]() Yes, screw the Spy. I tend to think of myself as fairly mindful of Spies when it comes to sniping in Team Fortress 2. However they are still one of my few weaknesses when doing it. That and forgetting to drop the DPI on my mouse when I switch to Sniper. =/ The good news is Valve feels our pain. In an item swap for either the sub-machine gun or the machete (probably the latter) the Sniper lands himself a shield named The Razorback. The good news for you Sniper haters? It is only a one-shot-… More

![]() Okay apparently Valve actually managed to surprise me a bit and has started the steady leak towards the Sniper update. The above is our favorite Aussie's new toy, The Huntsmen. I wanted to get my sniper update projections out already but I wasn't expecting this update so soon thus here are 2 of the 3. I know you guys will say "sure, whatever", but I did figure on a bow and arrow but not the charge shot. It made sense to ditched the hitscan weapon (sniper rifle) in favor of a projectile weapon… More
