TF2 – Meet the Spy
TF2 – Meet the Spy
Â
Gearing up for the launch of the Sniper/Spy update on Thursday, Valve has released the latest in a long line of “Meet the Team” videos. This time we get to see the Spy in action, doing what he does best – fooling everyone! (yes, that includes me too.)
Â
“He is a puzzle, wrapped in an enigma, shrouded in riddles, lovingly sprinkled with intrigue, express mailed to Mystery, Alaska, and LOOK OUT BEHIND YOU! but it is too late. You’re dead. For he is the Spy—globetrotting rogue, lady killer (metaphorically) and mankiller (for real).”
Â
Â
 Without further ado, I give you the “Meet the Spy Video.” Enjoy!

As if the video wasn’t enough, Valve has also released the achievement list for the spy, along with a special Valve Corporate achievement – Welcome to the internets: Fail to understand what ‘Private’ means on YouTube. Earlier in the week the Meet the Spy video found its way onto youtube early, so Valve being the jokers that they are, decided to make light of the situation and have a little fun.
Â
Now on to those achievements I told you about. 34 unlockable achievements have been listed on the website. What you must do to unlock each is unknown, but for many of them you can guess from the small picture that accompanies each achievement.
