Defense of the Ancients or DotA is a game that has been played by many. Since the announcement of it's sequel many have wondered how will it look, and how will it play compared to the first game?

Team Fortress 2 has been around for a long long time now, about four to five years.

The world is opening their hearts and wallets to support the Japan relief efforts. The group over Valve and at Mann Co. is also helping out in their own way. The "Humanitarian's Hachimaki" ($7.99), the "Benefactor's Kanmuri" ($19.99) and the most prestigious "Magnanimous Monarch" ($99.99) will be available from now through April 6. Also available will be two limited edition noise makers, as if hearing mini guns and engineer's beeping turrets aren't enough. All DLC proceeds will go to the Japanese Relief Fund (net applicable taxes) and all hats can be equipped by all classes, but can't be used in crafting nor can they be traded. For you tax conscious donations, unfortunately the Mann Co. can not be considered at tax write off.
