Probably still my favorite screenshot.

Oh Valve: you tease, you! From the TF2 Official Blog:
In addition to the three unlockable weapons and thirty-five achievements for the Heavy, we’ve got a new game mode with five new arenas for it….
I have GOTTA believe that Valve is not going the “orange-deathmatch-made-in-five-minutes-piece-of-garbage” route with this. Arena says to me “games”. Either for gladiatorial [...]

In case you haven’t yet heard, the update webpage for the Heavy Weapons Guy is now up and running, with more to be revealed in the coming days. So check back here!

I for one am pleased as punch (the HWG melee variety) that they’ve decided to go with cp_steel in [...]

Another curious phenomena surrounding TF2 is the huge proliferation of what we nerds like to call “Fan Art“. It is closely followed upon by “Fan Fiction” (which is already showing up in guest posts on the venerable Ubercharged.net). Found this piece on deviantart.com by the brilliant mmiasmostati.  (not a Flash game, merely a cool picture)

Here’s my latest, DoD-themed Fragwagon spray:

If any of you would like a fragwagon spray, email me (siamnoodle@yahoo.com). The VTF file is much better than a JPEG.

I’ll come right out and say it - Goldrush and Dustbowl have been frustrating me lately. In a recent game, I played Engineer, with disastrous results*. Beyond changing servers and finding a 24hr 2fart party, I’ve found it’s always best to change classes.
So I can’t Engy on Goldrush. I’ve accepted that. [...]

Very funny new piece of machinima by “Lagspike Films”. HWguy talking about being a “serious actor” on Letterman is worth the whole thing. VERY WELL DONE!
