It was announced before TF2 was.

TF2 was announced a long-ass time ago, if you want to be technical.  Development started with Quake 2 sometime around 1997-1998, then it moved to GoldSrc (HL1 engine -- derived from the Quake engine) when the developers were contracted to make it by Valve, then it became a standalone product, it got uberhyped in magazines, E3, etc, then nobody heard anything about it for a long time, then it was announced that it was going to come out after HL2, then it never happened, then they said it was going to come out with Episode 2 and Portal.

Yeah well that's nitpicking. Fortress Forever was announced before TF2 was announced to actually still exist.

I really hope the don't delay it more. It looks like they've made some for progress with it so I doubt they will.

So, Duke Nukem Forever all over again, then?

We should merge this with the UT99 Server Thread again and see what kinds of radiation are produced from the resulting annihilation!

Game rocks. Haven't tried TF2 at all so I really wouldn't know which one is better.

I've got a friend who has played it (preordered orange box), and says it's freaking incredible, which is really impressive, coming from him. He's a tournament-level quake player, and pretty much thinks everything sucks unless it is ideal for competition, so that means TF2 will probably not fail.
