Team Fortress By crazy4disney on - Updated Oct 15, 2011
Team Fortress is a great action game for the computer. Both my son (15) and I love to play this game and now my 9 year old is showing interest in it as well.
The game is an online multiplayer game. You choose a server and join a team (red or blue), then you pick what type character you will be. Some of the choices are: Heavy (has a machine gun, fists to punch and a shot gun); Spy (has a knife, pistel, electric thing that destroys, discuise case...you can look like anyone you want); Pyro (has the flame thrower, shot gun, axe); Medic (has healing device, and a gun that shoots bad medicine shots, and a bone saw), etc.
The object is to control points on the game or points on the map. Once you can control all the points on the map, you win.
The game, like all war games, is mostly shooting at others. It is fast pace and high action. You use head phones w/ microphone to talk to the other players in the same game. The graphics are cartoon-like. When someone is hit all you see is splashes of red.
I don't let my youngest play this yet, but I would probably rate it less than Mature, maybe PG13.

This sounds like fun and I think it is awesome that is something you and your 15 year old both enjoy. The only I like that my 15 year old does is shopping, and that gets to be expensive, lol!
It's great that you have something you and your kids enjoy doing together!
Sounds like a great game, I will have to tell me kids and husband who, love to play those kind of games, thanks.
Nice online game there, don't you get addicted playing that game?
Haha, my husband plays TF 2 and is addicted! I'm not much of a gamer, but sometime I like to watch him play this one because it's so fun and cartoony.
Yes, I play Team fortress 2. It really is a great game. What I really like about it is that it's fast paced, the game keeps moving nonstop.
