Valve state that Meet the Pyro video will debut this year
Team are working on a secret that is NOT a hat or map
Another secret will be revealed at the Saxxy Awards

Vavle may be keeping tight lipped when it comes to the whereabouts of Half-Life Episode 3, however they are more than happy to share information when it comes to Team Fortress 2.

What's scheduled for this year? The final character video, Meet the Pyro, will be release and will feature "lots of blood pretty much all the way through". The team are also working on a secret project that is not a map or hat, which is an intriguing premise indeed.

What could it be? We're thinking new characters, or perhaps even an animated short film could be in the works, as Valve have spoken about their desire to do something in that space previously. If that wasn't enough to make you excited, Valve also stated they would reveal another secret at the second annual Saxxy Awards. We're hoping it's going to be Team Fortress 2: The Musical!

They say great science is built on the shoulders of giants - not here. At Aperture we do all our science from scratch; no hand holding.

I'm guessing either a new character (unlikely) or some sort of community content competition.

I'm just anticipating the Meet Pyro short. They really outdone themselves when they did the one for the Medic.

I bought one hat, Kenni has it :P

Every time I start playing this again I get distracted by another game because FPS' are never my strong front. Hopefully this'll breathe some new life into it for me.
