Valve has even more Team Fortress 2 content planned for 2012
Believe it or not, there is still plenty of new Team Fortress 2 content in the works. Valve has something super secret up its sleeve and it doesn’t have anything to do with hats or maps. TF2 is already free-to-play, so whatever Valve is doing may turn out to be pretty significant.
You can now trade Team Fortress 2 items on Steam

To enable the beta, you’ll have to go into your Steam settings and select Steam Trading Beta. After a download and restart, you’ll be good to go.
Rift and Team Fortress 2 to cross-promote each other
We’ve seen cross-promotional campaigns before in that one game helps promote another. For example, those who purchased a collector’s edition of AION got a code for a wings emote for their toons in Guild Wars.

However, one particular cross-promo is occurring between the unlikeliest of pairs, the upcoming MMO Rift and Team Fortress 2.

Telltale’s crossover game is about poker
Earlier this week, Telltale Games teased us with a video starring four characters from different games. Tycho from Penny Arcade Adventures, Max from Sam and Max, The Heavy from Team Fortress 2 and Strong Bad from Homestar Runner would somehow find a way to gather in the same place. There will be no team deathmatches or mysteries to solve this time. All these characters want to do is play poker.

Team Fortress 2 attacked by giant cat
One of the things I like the most about Team Fortress 2 is the community. Valve continues to provide exemplary content for gamers while giving them the ability to make their own customized experiences. What do you get when you mix achievement junkies with someone who’s fed up with cheaters? You get laser shooting cats.

Deal of the Day: Team Fortress 2 for half price through Steam
An update to The Scout class was released on February 25, 2009, which brings new maps, weapons and achievements to Team Fortress 2.
To commemorate this joyous occasion, Valve is selling Team Fortress 2 on Steam for $9.99 for an extremely limited time, and by that I mean until Friday (February 27, 2009).
