Dude, you kinda totally missed the point of the utterly inappropriate Lawrence of Arabia scene. Ask yourself: what was happening in the Middle East at the time this film was released? What was the US up to? The brownface is half the point

I'm glad to see from the timeline peaks that I'm not the only person who found the inclusion of the whole Orange Box trailer to be kind of annoying as hell

Man i remember whenever i got a new game i was super excited to find it came with a free month of live or (the holy grail) 3MONTHS of free live. Only the crazy triple A titles at the time MAYBE came with those trial cards but man when it did i felt like i hit the lottery basically. What a time

some cinematic shots in here, wow!

As someone who didn't have a proper PC until 2014, I feel like I can understand the sentiment of imagining how it is to play a game, and overhyping it in your head due to excitement. I'd spend hours on the TF2 wiki or watching random gameplay on YT so that I could sort of try to keep up with the game -- I think I didn't understand it back then, but it may have been me trying to circumvent FOMO, since TF2's community and popularity made me feel like it was the biggest thing ever, and I was missing out on it for years. I even had a friend buy me the game a whole 4 years before I was able to play it, sort of mirroring your experience with the N64 games you had, which I think is kinda funny. An unfortunate twist ended up being that I've spent so much time trying to "stay around" TF2 before playing it that, when I finally had the chance to do so, I felt kind of burned out and disappointed due to it not really meeting my unrealistic expectations of it, despite me still loving the game. The bot situation (although seemingly under control now?) and the game's uncertain "it's so over - we're so back" existence sort of creates another melancholic feeling altogether, which combined with the weird experience you had on the Xbox version really makes you wonder how TF2 is able to achieve all of these complex emotions in its fans whenever things just aren't quite right with it.

Why does the xbox ver look so much better and runs on old ass hardware, the game was much better optimized back then

ah yes the act man intro

fall of cybertron mentioned, todays a good day

This was my exact experience with tf2 for 12 years just running around and shooting until i even knew what a online match looked like

outside of scary levels like ravenholm I FIRMLY believe source maps alone are cozy, they feel like an afternoon whyen you were all alone a a kid or teen its great

When I was a kid I used to play a game called Starseige Tribes with my family. I believe it was online only too, so when I was on my own, I liked to mess around in a multiplayer map by myself. I was too afraid to play with random people online. I was messing around, destroying equipment in the enemy team’s base when I suddenly died and I got so scared cause I didn’t understand how. The kill feed said I was killed by “debris” but being a little kid I thought that meant I was killed by another *player* named “Debris” rofl. I quickly logged out so scared that someone, somehow logged into my game and killed me.

it is true lol, Xbox TF2 has better graphics than PC

A while back my dad was living on the very top floor of a crappy apartment complex, it was always incredibly hot, even during winter, always had 4-5 fans running, but we made the best of it. Then, my stepmoms friends asked my dad to housesit for a year while they go travel, they were rich surgeons lol. He accepted, and we moved to this beautiful 4 story house with a basement full of videogames! They let us use and even have their xbox 360, and thats when i discovered orange box for the first time. Would play FT2 for 5 minutes, get my butt whooped and hop off 😂 great memories

Bot problem is fixed!

This video is lovely, because it confirms how you can love TF2 even offline. I loved playing it on PC with bots on Nucleus, because no one plays online this map... This game has perfect gameplay and style... 14:58 appreciate this moment...

Bro, this version have offline bots?

1 second in and the super liminal ost starts. Oh yeah its gonna be a great video

You should try tf2classic

played this on xbox live with a consistent group back in the day before i had tf2. Oh ignorance was so bliss

I remember picking this game up at a local game shop used, play the hell outta TF2 and my friend who also played, but in pc was talking about it and he brought up cosmetics, and I asked him how to get them and he explained it to me and I told him that I couldn’t the next day, to this day I don’t think he knew I was on Xbox lol

TF2 on Xbox was last very active around 2013 as I recall. It was pretty riddled with hackers though and every other match it seemed like would have somebody flying around the map and spawning in assets. The upside was they usually also unlocked every TF2 achievement so I just got like 300 gamerscore for free.

No way you're serious with the brown face stuff

i wouldnt be where i am without tf2 tf2 ambiance is engraved into my head after 2000 hours

a waste of 20 minutes going over what every source youtuber video essay has gone over. slop.

Love love ur narrative bro n the music even better

Game's fixed

I've talked about this once or twice on my channel! It's always super cool to hear that somebody else has had the same offline xbox experience with TF2 that I did. Good story, stellar music choices, amazing video!

It’s so unfortunate that The Orange Box version of TF2 did not have an offline practice against bots mode, when the PC version did get it.

New here,came to make a driveby and say hi,and also to like and subscribe,hope it helps✌️

The video is amazing so far

splendid

No players online is actually a Team Fortress related game, Called Classic Team Fortress, this is told by ctf_gorge, which is Classic Team Fortress Gorge.

There is something about going back to the games you played as a kid and instead of playing them you just walk around, listening to the ambiance. This might sound a bit corny, but it almost feels like i’m visiting my childhood home. Tf2, half life 2, halo, hello neighbor. All these games just make feel so nostalgic and hollow.

I just wanted to say that u picked a good soundtrack for this video I really really love the superliminal soundtrack and the video everything about it was always something I wanted to express Im looking forward to seeing more content like this

I love this video

thanks for the video man, I miss the old days, you make me tears man, best day when I can play left 4 dead 2 slit screen with my brothers on my xbox360. Man i really miss the simpler times. Thanks again.

This game was peak gaming. Literally no ranks nothing just playing for the fun of the game

I really wish his fans werent so toxic which made him delete jojivlogs. I really enjoyed this side of him, alongside the music he made

oh my god. Extreme G2 is a game ive been trying to remember FOREVER. Man, im so glad i decided to watch this video. Thank you so much! Also, phenomenal video man. Keep making content, this shit is gooooood

Thankfully I was able to play this game online at launch but man I just love how this version of TF2 still exists. It’s really neat. The PC experience is definitely the best but the 360 version was my first time playing the game and I loved playing 2fort.

TF2 Alone isnt scary or off, unless if youre playing on the console versions. (ps3 is even worse because the ps3 version shut down, and things like that just makes you wonder what happened when someone was there.)

All Source engine maps feel eerie when you are in the game by yourself, especially the multiplayer based maps. This is exacerbated in popular Gmod maps.

Why is fall of cybertron there, but not war?

I still play it now and again. Its a lot more fun than dealing with all the try hards on pc. Playing in the early morning is such a nostalgic, peaceful, or even euphoric feeling for me. I recommend trying it if you can. Playing alone though was a whole different beast. It was like at any moment you could turn a corner and see something peaking out at you, or something weird and creepy would happen, much like minecraft at the time. Horror games dont unnerve me as much as those games do.

I knew I wasn't crazy, when I was a child I saw this and never bothered getting it then I came back and it wasn't there,

No internet can be scary

I'd have the same experiences in the old Star Wars Dark Forces games. Mum would get snippy anytime I'd play the story mode, so I was only ever allowed to run around in a TCP/IP local connection and shoot the guns at nothing. Weirdly enough, I don't get those 'liminal' feelings, just the paranoia that something's about to be around that corner. or that if I turn around too quickly, something else will be there. A constant feeling of an impending jumpscare

You kinda got your wish for bots because that's everywhere

This makes me wish Valve would wake TF UP and release TF2 to modern consoles with crossplay and all it's updates and breath some extra life into this game... :(
