Between those two games which one is better?

This isn't video card related, so I'm punting it to PC Gaming

Indeed, my first time playing TF2 was at a LAN party a few weeks ago and I had an absolute blast. If it's developed by Valve then you know it's high quality.

Just my opinion.

Company of Heroes. You get a small army to control with CoH, compared to only 1 character at a time with TF2. So it's not even a close match.

TF2, because there's a smaller risk of homosexual behavior when there's only 1 person in your army ;)

I don't know. Close knit teams, the only woman wears a mask, and the doctor and the heavy always holding hands.

What a strange couple of games to try and compare.

I prefer TF2 obviously, but the small amount of CoH I played was relatively enjoyable as well, so it just depends on whether you want an RTS or an FPS.

Funny, I would actually consider that a plus. They are adding additional content, for free; sounds like a bonus to me.

Apparently in an interview, a Valve dude called the pyro a "she". Somehow I doubt that, unless that suit includes hormone injections and an adam's apple implant.

My thoughts:

TF2 can get old fast. Sure you can probably play this game longer than I did.. If I played it for only a few trial days before I got bored, you might play it for a year.. But still, you can only do so much with that game.

COH on the other hand is much deeper and sophisticated than TF2. I know it's not very smart to compare them, they are very different, but IMO there's just so much more VALUE in COH than in TF2...

In the end, I'll tell you this. If you want some quick, primitive fun for a short amount of time when you come home from work and want to vent your frustration by blowing some people up, go with TF2. It's also relatively cheap.

If you want more from a game, and you like tactics, strategy and history, go with COH. I chose COH + Opposing Fronts expansion, and I am satisfied with my choice. I might not be able to get quick jolts of fun in random matches blowing people up whenever I feel like it, but I more than compensate for it, when my friends are finally all free from work during weekends and we all gather up for one big 2 vs 2 or 3 vs 3 battle.

TF2, there's plenty of fun servers that keep it mixed up and as long as you play with funny people it will never get old. Like a few nights ago we had a full spy on heavy rush in one server because we were all bored with the fact that stacked team was destroying newbie team every round.

Lolol, when I read that comment about the only girl being behind a mask I was thinking of the spy disguised as a girl. :p
