TF2 is free, cue the rage
This week, Valve has been releasing the Über Update for Team Fortress 2. This culminated in the long-anticipated Meet the Medic video. It's awesome, go watch it.

And that wasn't all. It has been announced that Team Fortress 2 will now be free to play. Not just for a weekend. Forever.

Awesome, right?

I could go on for days linking all the angry threads on Valve's forums, so here are a couple other places people are mad:

Forum thread entitled "Poll: The TF2 Insult" on The Escapist
