Poll Team Fortress 2 vs Overwatch, Which do you prefer gamers? (11 votes)

Team Fortress 2 45%
Overwatch 55%
I played Team Fortress 2 & Overwatch and like the both 0%

Team Fortress 2 was a blast back in it's hey day. What really killed the game for me was the Mannconomy update or one of the ones past near that one.

Overwatch is great right now, but there are things I don't like compared to TF2. Like in OW you don't have versatility. If people pick 2 offense/2 tanks/1 support you're pretty much forced into support or it just becomes tougher than it should be. In TF2 you could pick whatever and still put up a decent fight with your team. Also the forced 6 v 6.

I overall prefer TF2 (especially in its prime, but it’s still surprisingly fun to play now), but Overwatch is right up there. It helps that I have way more friends who got into Overwatch than TF2.

TF2 was excellent on the 360 albeit free from the p.c. updates.

TF2, I prefer the larger player counts and longer matches and the overall style I guess.

but, Overwatch is a damn fine MP game and I got nothing against it

TF2. It's still a ton of fun to play, and its free (yeah yeah, microtransactions, but its totally playable without buying anything).

Only played the Beta of Overwatch, and put a lot of hours into Team Fortress 2 when it was relatively new.

From what I played of Overwatch I think it's good. No complaints, I've just grown out of these type of team based shooters.

I much prefer Arena shooters known from the Quake style death matches; and that's why my vote goes to-

Quake: Champions :P

I tried many times but could never get into TF2, while Overwatch was almost immediately fun to me.

I tried playing TF2 on the Orange Box years ago, and at the time I couldn't get into it. Might be different now, but still not real interested in TF2.

By contrast Overwatch has really exceeded my expectations. It's become one of my favorite games. I think the art style and variety of characters, as well as Blizzard being behind OW certainly contribute to me liking it so much more.
