Achievements Included in Upcoming TF2 Update

News | September 25, 2008 9:08 am
Valve has announced recently that their highly anticipated update to the multiplayer game Team Fortress 2 of their Orange Box collection will come with More Achievements!!! Gabe Newell, of Valve, mentioned this fact in an interview with 1UP. This news also comes despite the fact that the Orange Box already has 99 Achievements, which is the current limit set by Microsoft.

It should also be noted that Valve will be charging for this Title Update. Upon questioned about charging users for the update, Newell had this to say:

"One of the reasons you have to charge for the update is so that you can have more Achievements. That's one of the several ways that Microsoft pushes you. Since we're charging for the update, we can add the same set of Achievements that have been added on the PC side."

Interesting. So could the charge be in place to offset a fee Valve had to pay Microsoft in order to include new achievements which break the limit? I'm not sure, but I really want to pick this game up now :D
