Alright - we all know that trailers are meant to show us all the best bits of a game and make us gamers say "oooooo, ahhhhhhh, gotta get that one!" I don't know that I would rush out and get this game, simply because it's not really my genre of choice - however - it [b]does[/b] look like it could be a very fun game to play. The trailers are ... well ... funny.

Team Fortress® 2 (TF2) is the sequel to the game that put class-based, multiplayer team warfare on the map. This year’s most anticipated online action game, TF2 delivers new gametypes, a signature art style powered by Valve’s next generation animation technology, persistent player statistics, and more.

Unlike other “class-based” games that offer a variety of combat classes only, Team Fortress 2 packs a wild variety of classes which provide a broad range of tactical abilities and personalities, and lend themselves to a variety of player skills.

Play as the flame-throwing Pyro, the room clearing Heavy, or the Spy, a master of disguises. Other classes include: Scout, Sniper, Medic, Engineer, Demoman, or Soldier.

Innovative games included in The Black Box and The Orange Box:

[b]• Half-Life 2: Episode Two[/b] -- the second installment in Valve’s episodic trilogy advances the award-winning story, leading the player to new locations outside of City 17.
[b]• Portal[/b] -- a pioneering type of single player action game that rewrites the rules for how players approach and manipulate their environment – much like how Half-Life 2’s Gravity Gun reinvented the way gamers interact with objects in the game.
[b]• Team Fortress 2[/b] -- an all-new version of the legendary title that spawned team based multiplayer action games. The game’s daring new art style features the most advanced graphics of any Source-based game released to date.

The Black Box will ship for the PC, and includes Half-Life 2: Episode Two, Portal and Team Fortress 2. The Orange Box will ship for the PC, PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system, and Xbox 360™ videogame and entertainment system, and includes all the content of The Black Box, plus the original Half-Life 2 and Half-Life 2: Episode One.

And now the [url=\"http://www.whatistheorangebox.com/tf2.html#\"][b]trailers[/b][/url]:

The top two trailers on the page are "in-game" whereas the bottom four are profession based interviews with the various characters - DemoMan, Heavy Artillery Man, The Soldier and The Engineer. There are apparently going to be more videos released, essentially an interview with each character.
