What

  • Lots of Left 4 Dead 1 (legally, so buy & update)
  • Lots of Team Fortress 2 (legally, so buy & update)
  • Maybe some Left 4 Dead 2 (legally, so buy & update)
  • Possibly an RTS (C&C3? RA3?), maybe as a tournament on Friday night
  • Maybe some non-computer games to fight square-eye-syndrome

Why You Should Come

  • Because your computer is powerful enough for at least Team Fortress 2:
    • Minimum requirements: 1.7Ghz CPU, 512Mb RAM, DirectX 8
    • Recommended system: Pentium 4 3.0Ghz, 1Gb RAM, DirectX 9
    • Windows 7 (free), Windows Vista (b0rked), Windows XP, Windows 2000
    • A MacBook Pro or iMac is easily powerful enough; use Leopard's BootCamp to set it all up or perhaps Steam for Mac will already be out
    • Or just come, and I'll help you set it up (I have a Windows 7 install DVD)
    • I've also gotten TF2 to work in VMWare and using Crossover Games (so on a Mac without BootCamp)
    • You can buy Team Fortress 2 for $20 or better yet The Orange Box for $30 online (at my place if you want)
  • Because you don't need to be a Pro-Gamer to have fun in Team Fortress 2 or Left 4 Dead
    • Almost none of us will know the new TF2 maps and weapons; we haven't played in months
    • They are very simple games, and you'll learn very fast; it has an easy learning curve
    • We play in two teams anyway, and it's about the team winning, not about having the highest score
    • There are two classes in TF2 who hardly ever have to actually hit anyone with a gun (Medic and Engineer)
    • There is one class in TF2 that mostly sits and shoots; little movement (Sniper)
    • These is one class in TF2 that only sneaks around and stabs people in the back (Dennis)
