This is my page on the Team Fortress 2 Wiki. Hmm, quite empty, I should fill it up with words and maybe some pictures, that would look really nice... I guess I could use this page to talk about the game, I mean that is what the Wiki is for right? I don't know about you but I have to be one of the most unlucky players in the whole of Team Fortress 2, I have '''never''' received a hat from a drop, not counting achievement hats like the Ghastly/ier/est Gibus, or the Proof of Purchase, which is probably the rarest item I own, so yeah, quite unlucky... I also seem to have a jinxed Item Drop System because I rarely get any good items with it. For example, I was playing Team Fortress 2 for around four hours, and I did receive (Rather bad) items, two [[Bonk! Atomic Punch|Delicious Energy Drinks]] and a [[Eyelander]]. But recently I did receive '''two''' [[Red Tape Recorder]]s in one drop, so I guess that sort of evens it out. | This is my page on the Team Fortress 2 Wiki.

This is my page on the Team Fortress 2 Wiki. Hmm, quite empty, I should fill it up with words and maybe some pictures, that would look really nice... I guess I could use this page to talk about the game, I mean that is what the Wiki is for right? I don't know about you but I have to be one of the most unlucky players in the whole of Team Fortress 2, I have never received a hat from a drop, not counting achievement hats like the Ghastly/ier/est Gibus, or the Proof of Purchase, which is probably the rarest item I own, so yeah, quite unlucky... I also seem to have a jinxed Item Drop System because I rarely get any good items with it. For example, I was playing Team Fortress 2 for around four hours, and I did receive (Rather bad) items, two Delicious Energy Drinks and a Eyelander. But recently I did receive two Red Tape Recorders in one drop, so I guess that sort of evens it out.
Paul Later Went All Crazy Ass About 'Pyrovision'
Pyrovision, hmm. It's actually a good texture swap, but that's about it. All they did was replace the half decent textures with chalky, eye burning pastel colours. The stripes across the terrain are okay I guess, but the new 'lollipop flowers' don't even look like they do in Meet The Pyro.

But the icing on the muffin has to be the violence in Pyrovision. The gibs are mearly Sillygibs, and the flames and burning effects don't match up, using the default Flamethrower with the Pyrovision Goggles results in the aforementioned weapon spewing fire, but the enemy being covered with sparkles and rainbows.

I'm sure many of you will know exactly what I'm talking about when I say these five words...
Call of Duty
Vs.
Halo
... Yup, thought you would. all of us have seen the battles raging on the internet, both sides desperately trying to belittle each other, it's pathetic! If you were part of one at any time, look back at what you said, and think. Think hard. I will now lay down facts, to hopefully convert the few of you that read this.
Call of Duty
Is more realistic.
Is a good game.
People play it.
Has sold over 98 million copies.
Is skating on very thin ice, with the earlier games being set in World War II, something no one wants reenacted.
Ditto with the Cold War (Black Ops).
Halo
Isn't suppose to be realistic.
Is a good game.
People play it.
Has sold less copies than Call of Duty, at 46 million.
Halo has a better soundtrack. Don't argue.
Halo has a better habit of killing of the characters that have been with you since the start, the ones that you like.
Still holds the record for most games sold on one day.
Both games are very good, Call of Duty is good for when you want to be immersed in a realistic environment, while Halo is for when you want to run around vaporizing strange and adaptive enemies with hilarious weapons. If you haven't played CoD, play it now. If you haven't played Halo, play it now.
