'''Team Fortress Classic''' ('''TFC''' or '''TF 1.5''') is a team-based, multiplayer [[first-person shooter]] game. Teams of players compete in scenarios such as capture the flag, escorting a VIP and territory control. Although initially released as a mod for [[Half-Life]], a stand-alone version of Team Fortress Classic was eventually made available to purchase via [[Steam]], [[Valve]]'s content delivery system.

Before TFC there was [[Team Fortress]], a [[1996]] [[QuakeWorld]] mod. TF's developers were working on "Team Fortress 2" as a standalone game, but later joined [[Valve Software]] and ported the original as a mod for [[Half-Life]] called Team Fortress Classic in April of [[1999]]. Despite the company's 1998 statement that "Team Fortress 2: Brotherhood of Arms" would be released "soon", the game remained in development of one form or another for eight years and has been on [[wp:Wired magazine|''Wired'' magazine]]'s top ten vaporware list every year since 2001. On [[July 15]], [[2006]], Valve announced that [[Team Fortress 2]] ("Brotherhood of Arms" was dropped from the title) would be released with [[Half-Life 2: Episode Two]] for [[Windows]], [[Xbox 360]], and [[PlayStation 3]]. The release date for ''Episode Two'' was set for Winter 2006, but was pushed back to a final release date of [[October 10]], [[2007]].
