Its 600Mb if you have all the other Orange Box stuff installed.

On its own its upwards of 5Gb as far as I remember.

Edit:

Yeah 1.2 days left of the free weekend. If someone sent you a Guest Pass it would bring up a message saying so and how to use it.

What happens after 1.2 days then?

Does it uninstall itself?

No it just becomes locked.

You won't be able to start it up again unless you buy it / wait for the next free weekend / get a guest pass off somebody.

2 things I noticed right off that bat. No wide screen settings and lack of duel controls in the options. Game play seems alright, just doesn't seem to get me excited to play it? Man BF2 really screwed me up. I think I have too high of standards now for games.

This game is more widely celebrated than BF2 already so "high standards" shouldn't be a problem .

Check your graphics card, TF2 supports wide-screen resolutions-- make sure you've changed the aspect-ratio in the graphics settings to 16:9 or whatever is applicable to you... I suspect this is a user-made complaint and not a game fault!

Yeah it supports widescreen. Don't know what your problem there is.

The gameplay is different thats all. There's no rush like using your uber at the last possible moment and winning the match.

High standards? I tried playing BF2 again but I just can't get back into it. Battles seem to revlove around who hits Z first, who bunny hops more, who throws the most nades, who camps the spawn point, who gets in the chopper first, who throws down his claymores in an alleyway. Meh. Far too many ways to get cheap kills in Bf2. In TF2 you earn every single one.

Unless you happen to get a crit rocket .

It's different though yes. But once you get into it there's no going back .

A few other things to remember: You are not a 1 man killing machine. Choose your battles. Secondly, if you are low on health don't keep pushing fowards. Retreat and find a medic/health kit.

People who play TF2 to a high-standard don't play with crits enabled .

Schwing!
