today's update is up. HD version of Meet the Spy and the spy achievements.

Unfortunately for me, I suck so bad as a spy, I don't think I'll ever get any of the new items :eek:

I got a kick out of valve's corporate achievement: Welcome to the internets.

At teamfortress.com if you look on the right you see that it says spy update 5/21/2009. Not sure if that's official since they usually put that up after the update is out.

Anybody check out the entries on the big board in Meet the sniper? Can't make out all of them but I see: Look out, sabotage, sleeping, "something" roommate, Behind you, Found Dracula, Lost Briefcase, Need Ammo, Wounded, Is a Man, Is a Woman, On Toilet, Smothered, Opened Briefcase, Depressed, About to Explodse, Is Drunk, Defenestrated, Above You!, Electrocuted, Exploted, Jarate, Lost Dracula.

hahahahahaha.

And the envelope of the pictures of the scout's mother reads: "Top Secret: Scout's Mom."

Freaking awesome.

Hmmm... so the Sniper Update isn't even on the list yet. So the sniper update is not going to be playable until AFTER the spy update, even though it was announced earlier?

I especially appreciate that 'Leaked Video' is one of the alerts on the big board. Nice one Valve.

Wow... WOW. This is probably the second time in game history where throwing piss on enemies is a legitimate combat tactic...
