I was a big fan of the original Team Fortress Classic Half-Life mod by Valve. It was one of the best capture the flag style FPS I've ever played.
I heard rumors of the sequel coming out on the new Source engine but I wasn't really following it closely. I did just happen to check out some videos on YouTube for the new TF2 and I have to say it looks pretty awesome!
They are bringing a cell-shading cartoonish look to the game, which at first made me worry a bit. I love the realism presented in games like Counter-Strike and Half-Life 2, but I guess this game was always a bit more arcade style than the other popular HL mods. After watching the videos I think it's definitely gonna be a hit.
Here's a preview from IGN that also includes some screenshots:
