A free day of TF2
So, last weekend (June 20-22), the FULL game of Team Fortress 2 was available for free, to commemorate the upgrades for the Pyro class. Unfortunately, I arrived at the party a little late, and only got one day of free play instead of the 3 days many others received.

However, this one day was pure bliss. I'm a moocher. I'll admit it. I cringe, nay, CHOKE when I see a price tag attached to a game. If I see "monthly fee" or "one time price," I'm out of there like horses out of the starting gate. That being said, the balanced classes (something A LOT, if not ALL free games could learn from. Seriously.), large maps, hilarious taunts, voice commands, in-game voice communication, and the massive spectrum of customization make this the only online game I would EVER pay for.

The customization aspect includes custom maps, SPACES IN PLAYER NAMES (AzazelTheAwesome can become Azazel the Awesome, making the owner of the game look like less of an asswipe), and "tags." A tag is a graffito that you upload to your TF2 game. You spray your tag onto walls and such. OTHER PLAYERS CAN SEE IT, AND YOU CAN MAKE IT ANIMATED TOO. (this leads to some griefing, where players post "questionable content," but it's all in good fun) These are three things which may not seem like much, but really add to the game, and these features combined with the BALANCED classes (every one of which has a foil; spies prey on snipers and heavies, but pyros can root spies out fairly well) make my decision on whether or not to buy the game a solid YES.

    TF2 is an awesome game! One of my favorite games in the last year or so. If you didn't buy it..you should! :)
