General Differences

  • Melee weapons have different animations (Ex. intead of constantly swingin the fire axe over his head, the pyro will also swing it to the side)
  • The PC version is patched more frequently
  • The Xbox 360 version has a lobby system where a host can set up a room, change the options (maps, time limit, and round number), and boot other players from there. People in the lobby can invite other players (if there's open slots), choose their teams, and talk to everyone. The PC version doesn't have a lobby system. Games in the PC can last until the host shuts down the room.
  • The PC version allows players to create custom maps and play them online. The Xbox 360 version does not have a map creator. It only has the official Valve maps.
  • When you die on the PC version, you can see the players gamerpicture in the textbox that appears when you get killed by a player. The 360 version doesn't have this.
  • The Xbox 360 version can have a maximum of 16 players while the PC can have 24(servers can be modded to 32 unofficially).
  • Sprays are not available in the Xbox 360 version but they are in the PC version
  • The Xbox 360 Version does not contain Bots.
  • Several quick commands such as the ability of the Spy to assume his last used disguise and the key to drop the Intelligence are unavailable in the Xbox 360 version
  • Xbox 360 version has a different menu screen. It features a picture of Dustbowl Stage 3 Cap 2, like the PC version did in the preorder beta.
  • The Xbox 360 version does not play music on the main menu screen. The only background sound is birds chirping and a beeping noise.
  • The Xbox 360 version cannot modify its video settings as much as the PC version. Yet 360 users can still choose different aspect ratios, resolutions, different display modes (Computer Monitor or Television), and different brightness settings.
  • Party mode is not available in the Xbox 360 version
  • The Xbox 360 version doesn't have Garry's mod.
  • You cannot take screen shots in the Xbox 360 version, except manually (i.e with direct capture software or a camera)
  • Xbox 360 version does not have a prefix in front of the map names. (ie: CTF_2Fort would instead be called 2Fort on the 360.)
  • The PC version has more responses such as "Match win" and "Assist" responses.
  • The Xbox 360 version uses a bar meter to show sensitivity on the X and Y axis. The PC version uses a slider and number counter.
  • The PC version can set a higher maximum sensitivity than the Xbox 360 version
  • The Xbox 360 version does not have the option to change your voice settings to "Talk to everyone" like the PC version. The 360 version can only "Talk to Team".
  • The Xbox 360 version can separate voice from game music and sound effects, with voice going through the headset and music and sound going through the television or home audio. This separation cannot be done in the PC version.
  • The PC version uses a "push-to-talk" system, whereby one presses and holds a key in order to use voice communication. The Xbox 360 version does not have a push-to-talk feature.

Gameplay Differences

  • The Xbox 360 version has no voice commands except for "Medic!" and other Taunts. Some voice commands have become responses.
