Recommended Games for You: Team Fortress 2!

        Recently, a friend told me to try out this game. The moment I played 1 game, I realized the game was pretty much awesome. It's available on Steam and what's better? It's free to play!

         This first-person shooter game is Team Fortress 2. It's basically just joining a team and completing a challenge to win the match. There are two game modes: Red v. Blu and Mann vs. Machine.
          In Red v. Blu you have to join a team and choose a class-which is a character-to use to play the game. The categories consist of Offense, Defence and Support. In the first category, there is the Scout, the Soldier and the Pyro. The Scout is the fastest class of all and deals damage when using his pistol. The Soldier, which uses the rocket launcher, is the typical class which beginners would choose. The Pyro is infamously known for his flamethrower which deals alot of damage in seconds and causes afterburn when using the flamethrower on an opponent.
           In Defense, there is the Demoman (Demolition Man) , Heavy and Engineer. The Demoman does not have guns but mainly holds grenade and stickybomb launchers, in which the latter sticks to the ground and can be detonated afterward. The Heavy is the big Russian man which boasts the biggest damage and health but the slowest speed. The minigun is his main weapon. The last in the Defense category, the Engineer, builds Sentry Guns, Dispensers and Teleporters. Sentry Guns have deadly aim and need to be upgraded to be deadlier and Dispensers can dispense engineer metal, health and ammo, and the teleporters helps players from the same team teleport from one place to another.
           In Support, there is the Medic, the Sniper and the Spy. The Medic can heal teammates with the medigun to accumulate Ubercharge to make teammates invincible for a limited amount of time when the meter is full but gives average damage with his syringes. Players can call for a team medic and he will be notified when a bubble appears at the top of players heads. The Sniper and the Spy is the deadliest of all. The Sniper can aim by sniping at a selected opponent and if he performs a headshot the enemy would die instantly. The Spy can cloak and can also disguise into other players, but invisiblity and cloak wear off if set on fire, receiving damage or receiving fall damage. The Spy also has a knife to backstab enemies and a sapper to disable The Engineer's buildings.
          In the game mode 'Mann vs. Machine', the game pits you against robots trying to drop a bomb into the disposal area marked 'Mann. Co'. Players have to cooperate with each other wave by wave to defend the area, no matter how big or small or deadly the robots are. There are upgrade stations which allows you to upgrade weapons and abilites.
          There are new stuff everyday in the Workshop, in which you are able to submit your ideas and if it is good enough, it may be selected to be put in the game in the future.
