The Engineer tells his tale in Team Fortress 2 trailer
Now's a good a time as any to remind people that if you really need to play Team Fortress 2 (and you're a PC owner), all you need to do is pre-purchase The Orange Box on Steam and you can start playing the TF2 beta next week. Although we don't exactly know how, but we hope some of the humor from these trailers translates to the gameplay. Then again, we've gotten used to the possibility of well-designed trailers being more interesting than the games they are for.

LOLOL solid gold. Still Heavy Weapons guy is the best. Can't wait for the spy or sniper or medic!

Sir, your avatar is made of God and Win.
Also, in an effort to stay on topic, I'm going to buy the shit out of this game, and then play it till my computer says, "WTF? Where's all the porn?" And I'll be like "STFU, Computer!" And then it'll crash and I'll kill myself.
Or something like that.
Also, Engineer ftw!

If I had a 360, this would be on my list, just for the crazy ass people.
Jonah Falcon @ Sep 11th 2007 7:39PM
Can't play this on PC?
Egster @ Sep 12th 2007 6:48AM
He's not a gamer. No PS3, no xbox 360 and no PC?

"No PS3, no xbox 360 and no PC..."

Cry some more....lol!

Bah, Fortress Forever ftw. http://www.fortress-forever.com

The World.

The question isn't if I should get this, but should I get it for my PC or my 360? Keyboard and mouse vs friends on Live. Hummm.
Anyway, I can't wait to see the Pyro's ad.
Matt B @ Sep 11th 2007 8:11PM
I'm not too excited about the Orange Box. TF2 sounded good til I saw the game play video. The only way I'd buy it if there was a new Counter-Strike involved. Portal is basically a tech demo. HL2 was awesome but there is nothing too new here.
Poisoned Al @ Sep 11th 2007 8:18PM
Of course, everything else for your PS3 is just SOOOoooo much better isn't it?
sheppy2.0 @ Sep 11th 2007 8:26PM
Ummm, this IS coming to PS3 as well so your point is hilariously misfired. In fact, not only has your rocket completely launched off the map, it's not in another server. Congrats, you've saved the flag for JojoMunkeyNuts6969. He's most appreciative.
Matt B @ Sep 11th 2007 11:27PM
Being that I can get a better version on the PC than 360...yeah, there are better games on my PS3.
Poisoned Al @ Sep 12th 2007 7:03AM
Ugh, does owning a PS3 make you stupid, or do you have to be an idiot to get one? I KNOW this is coming out for PS3, and as you can count the number of decent on-line games for the bloody thing on the fingers of a frostbite sufferer, it's a bit early to turn your nose up at it.
Bucket @ Sep 11th 2007 8:15PM
Damn straight people. Engineer for life. That guy who set up a sentry right over your front door like .50cal mistletoe? That was me.
Bucket @ Sep 11th 2007 8:17PM
Oh. Right. The people who want to get rid of "exploits" like floating nail grenades but want to keep "features" like conc-jumping medics owning every map. Keep that shit on Quake.
N-Zero(NDF-Leader) @ Sep 11th 2007 8:17PM
This game is gonna kick so much freakin ass. I can't wait for it. I am gonna buy it for the ps3. Bad thing is I have to wait 2 weeks for it, when it is already out on 360 and the PC. Well whatever. I would have gotten it for the 360 but I am waiting to buy a 360 because I want to get the Falcon model. So I know for sure that it won't brick on me. Otherwise I am all good this winter with My Wii and PS3
Bucket @ Sep 11th 2007 8:34PM
Anyone noticed:
"Copyright LOLOLOL"?
That the guitar playing is pretty accurate?
The kill ticker he's sitting next to?
Blu Streak beer?
The Kire @ Sep 11th 2007 8:55PM
Yeah, I noticed the kill ticker, but not the other things.
Obie @ Sep 11th 2007 8:39PM
These little character pieces are priceless. Can't wait for more.
Blazur @ Sep 11th 2007 8:45PM
I played the crap out of TFC1! SO looking forward to getting back into this game. Wonder if the cartoony graphics are gonna make it light on system requirements?
DBuck_Eye @ Sep 11th 2007 8:49PM
I could have sworn you meant Rayman Raving Rabbids when you said trailors better than the game itself.
The Kire @ Sep 11th 2007 8:53PM
Ah, man, these never get old... "The answer? Use a gun... And if that don't work... Use more guns."
Ranko @ Sep 11th 2007 8:59PM
These character designs are phenomenal.
malcolm @ Sep 11th 2007 9:00PM
the heavy weapons guy looks best. $400000 to fire the weapon for 12 seconds lol. orange box should be a great value
arti57 @ Sep 11th 2007 9:14PM
First time I have ever laughed out loud at a game trailer. Can't wait to see what the rest look like.
Arturo @ Sep 11th 2007 9:42PM
Cant wait! I'm getting pc and 360 versions :D
GoldenS1104 @ Sep 11th 2007 11:01PM
His hands were way too big for that guitar! That's just silly!
blooh @ Sep 11th 2007 11:53PM
whatever happened to the black box? i already have hl2, i don't wanna pay for it again
Brian @ Sep 12th 2007 12:23AM
You aren't paying for it. TF2 and HL2 Episode one are more than worth the 50 bucks and you get portal as a free bonus.
Beereyann @ Sep 12th 2007 12:26AM
I meant Episode 2.

The short of it is: If you already own HL2 and Ep1, you can essentially give the new copies from the Orange Box to somebody else. Not the best workaround, but considering the price tag it's still a great deal.
plyx @ Sep 12th 2007 12:14AM
I can't freaking get any videos from gametrailers.com to play for some reason. What's wrong?
plyx @ Sep 12th 2007 12:25AM
All the other flash-based videos from youtube and such play with no problem, gametrailers.com is not blocked by firefox or any other firewall, so what's the deal?
Psaakyrn @ Sep 12th 2007 4:20AM
Hmm... Turret Defense? No, that's a silly idea, it'd never work.
Roxinos @ Sep 12th 2007 7:19PM
Obviously I have a PC. And yes, it can play games. I'm just not too much of a PC gamer, and I didn't notice that it said it was available on the PC. The only reason I don't have a 360 is because I can't afford it. And I'm totally unwilling to buy a PS3 as it stands.
