The 360 got a few updates. I'm not sure which ones, but I think it's mostly bugfixes and some of the maps. The PS3 version is still just as it was at launch.

Hmm...I've never been a big fan of CCGs - I mean, I did and still do collect Pokemon cards, but I never got heavily into the battling and trading thing.

By definition that makes you a fan since you still buy them.

Hence why Valve basically apologized to PS3 owners. I believe their statement was something to the effect of, "Well, we screwed up, and we have no way to patch your console. But hey, four out of five games in the Orange Box ain't bad, right?"  :P

Indeed. How many people still play the 360 version, by the way?

...hey, that's actually a good point. The XBox version is still mostly vanilla, isn't it? (I know Valve promised to port the updates once all the classes had their loot... but they seem to have been distracted by shiny objects hats. I vaguely remember them fixing (most of) the bugs, though.)

Next time I hear somebody whine about TF2 being 'ruined', I can just point them towards the console version!

But again, how many people play it? I legitimately don't know, but I'm guessing not many.

Also, the reason as far as I've heard for the lack of ports is Microsoft's insistence they charge for the updates and Valve's refusal.

Just checked. Games are still full there

Good to know there's an option for people who hated some of the updates and refuse to play anymore because of it.
Which is beyond me. Have you seen that Saxton Hale gamemod? Hilarious.

Playing as Scout in Saxton Hale is fun. Just drink BONK and crit his ass with the scattergun. And the sandman, OMG, stun then beat the shit outta him. I think I'm too into this. Maybe Box is right, I might play TF2 too much....

I'm horrible at this game. For some reason, it's very fun though.

The thing with TF2 is, you think you are good at it. And then you meet someone better.

You think you are bad at it, then you play with or against someone worse.

I think you're actually better off getting owned by people who are better than you in order to learn things.

I mean how else are you going to practice riding Middies as a Sniper on Upwards?

Same here. Some days I'm convinced my weapons do 1/2 standard damage and on other days I play soldier for easy kills. No matter what, I'm having fun the whole time.

Anyone want some supply crates? I've got one 10-series and one 11-series. I have no desire to pay for anything in a game I've already paid for, so I'm giving/trading them away.

I think that some people will trade a key for four crates.

It's facing off against five sentries on every map along with Huntsmen and Soldiers that have been playing nonstop for the past two years  among other things that I just can't get happy with. I'm sick of quitting TF2 in frustration. I'm supposed to be having fun, dangit! This is across multiple servers, by the way.

From the server I was just on: "Really? You let a <class1> and a <class2> break into the base and steal the intelligence?" No shit. I just started playing seriously a few days ago. Of course, the guy had voice chat so I could hear it exactly how he meant it.

If you want to have fun in a place where skill doesn't matter quite so much, try the CriticalSandvich randomizer servers. You get some stupid combinations that don't work sometimes, but then again so do the players that have no lives outside of TF2.

Remember a long time ago when Valve used to talk about matchmaking you with players who had roughly equal skill?  I know they talked about that for L4D, I -think- they mentioned it for TF2, but of course it never materialized.

And servers that have 'noob' in the name are always full of people trying to take advantage of the poor newbies.

Who are these people?  I have like at least 10 keys worth of crates sitting in my inventory for these suckers benefactors.

There comes a time when you must take off the soft, furry slippers of a boy and put on the shoes of a man.
Unless of course they don't fit properly and your feet blister up like bubble wrap.
Oh ho ho, but don't try to return the shoes, because they won't take them back once you've worn them.
Especially if that fat pig Tony is at the desk.
