Team Fortress 2 out for Mac Steam

Valve has released Team Fortress 2 for the Mac, along with a funny little video trailer highlighting the old PC vs. Mac fanboy wars (and a great comic featuring the TF2 characters' first visit to the Apple Store). If you've never played TF2, you're in for a treat -- it's a multiplayer team-based shooter with a beautiful art style, excellent balance, and a great sense of humor. If you're a shooter fan, it's definitely a must-play, and even if you're only into the top tier of shooters, it's worth checking out.

And Valve is hoping you'll do just that -- the game is half-off right now, and this weekend, they're offering up a free weekend of play, so you can download the game on the Steam client, and give it a go through Sunday for absolutely free. It's not like the Portal deal, where you'll get to keep it forever, but if you like it this weekend, the full game is a steal at US$10, or you can get it with the whole Orange Box (which includes Half-Life and its two episodic releases) for $30 total. TF2 on the Mac? These are wondrous days we live in.

Nice, I can't believe the Mac people have not been able to play TF2 this whole time. The trailer is sweet.

Ok, so, how does one play it for free if they have already downloaded Steam (for Portal)???

Open (or restart) Steam and Team Fortress 2 should appear in your games list. Double click it to download and install.

My understanding is that only games made with source will be coming. So I think that leaves one version of CS.
