Team Fortress 2 Perks for Left 4 Dead 2 Purchases

The Team Fortress 2 Blog has an update written in the voice of Whitaker, owner of the gun shop across from the Liberty Mall in Left 4 Dead 2. Whitaker outlines free Team Fortress 2 items to be awarded to anyone who purchases Left 4 Dead 2 by 7:00 pm EDT tomorrow. Word is:

So now you can see I am familiar with the merchandise I speak of. While I do not understand the machinations of this skillet and hat scheme, I do know that if you purchase the said game Left 4 Dead 2, it will reward you with a free hat from my friend Ellis and a handy skillet to fry yours or more importantly your enemy's bacon. These items all manifest themselves in some infernal game called TeamFortress2 which I have no understandin' of but my good friends what I do know is these items know no class, color, weight or gender. They work for all peoples.

Now if I could get a hat and a skillet for $6.80 — I would own a new hat and skillet. At that price, I implore of you, if you see a hatless or skilletless friend, buy them one.

Is such a thing as "over-supporting" your game? Valve is certainly pushing it. As Verno said, the game has evolved in very strange ways, and is nearly unrecognizable from the game I used to be addicted to. Not sure I'd ever go back to it now.

Yeah that's the thing. I almost feel like there is a learning curve to what used to be an accessible FPS. I loved TF2 for it's quite casual nature with deceptively deep gameplay. Maybe it's just the view from the surface seems complex but I almost feel like I'd have to play it like an MMO to get back into it and that's not really desirable. Between the unlocks, crafting and everything else, they don't make it easy for people to come back to the game.
