Video Info
Released: June 10, 2010
Run time: 0:48


Notes

  • At 0:02, a window can be seen through the Sniper's scope. The colours playing on the glass allude to the 'Flying Window' logo from Microsoft 'Windows' operating system.
  • The Sniper's scope view is displayed without his charge meter or a laser in his crosshair and seems to be implemented with an extra zoom function.
  • The bitten apple hanging from the branch alludes to both Apple's current logo, and their very first logo.
  • At 0:06, a Pyro briefly runs through a nearby doorway. Although on the BLU team, the Pyro is carrying a red flamethrower.
  • From 0:18 to 0:21, the sights on the Demo's grenade launcher can be seen folded for the first time.

An unobstructed view of the shotgun
  • The company poster on the wall behind the Heavy reads "Jobbs' Orchards." This refers to Apple CEO, Steve Jobs.
  • At 0:23, the Soldier can be seen in the background, sorting through a Mann Co.-shipped crate of various hats, including the Tyrant's helm, the Texas ten gallon, the Killer's kabuto, and the Stainless pot. The soldier appears to be comparing the hats, perhaps a hint at a Trading system, seeing as the Texas Ten Gallon, one of the hats the soldier is holding, cannot be worn by the soldier.
    • Also seen (to the right) are several of the targets from Target, the training map.
  • Also at 0:23 is the first of many glimpses at an as-yet unidentified shotgun, which is presumed to be one of the unlockables to be included with the Engineer Update. It appears to be a shotgun with detailed engravings, a device on the right side, and antennae. It is also notable that this shotgun has a stock, as well as a seemingly longer barrel than the standard shotgun. This shotgun resembles the Annabela shotgun that Father Grigori used in Ravenholm in Half Life 2.
    • At the same moment there's no visible trigger at Engineers shotgun.
  • "Think Bullets," seen at the end of the trailer, is a reference to an old Apple slogan, "Think Different."
  • The music tracks used in this video are The Art of War (from Meet the Soldier) and The TF2 Theme.
