I can give a quick description of the classes and some game modes...
CLASSES
Scout: Can double jump and runs a lot faster compared to other characters. Weapon of choice: Rifle
Soldier: Well balanced. Weapon of choice: Bazooka. Can high-jump using a shot on the floor
Pyro: Weapon: flamethrower. One of my favorites, the pyro can easily force enemies to retreat. (Enemies on fire take constant damage)
Heavy: Weapon: mini-gun. This guys is the Tank of the game. Can take a lot of damage, as well as deliver it. But he move so slowly!!
Demoman: Weapon: handbombs. My favorite class. The demoman can deliver a lot of damage on a wide area. His main con is that his explosions can also give deadly damage to himself
Engineer: Weapon: rifle. The engineer generally work behind the scene. He can build teleports, dispensers (which can provide health and ammo) and sentry guns. All machines are upgradeable, having 3 levels each.
Spy: Weapon: knife (for back-stabs). The spy have a lot of skills, being one of the hardest to handle. He can become invisible, can look like ally to the enemies, can "sap" the machines of the engineers, AND 1-hit-KO anyone with his knife from behind. Has a very low health.
Sniper: Weapon: duh. Well, this guy don't have much health or skills, and require a skilled player. The power of his shots gets gradually stronger, based on the time spend on the zoomed-mode (which leave you kinda defenseless). A 5sec-aimed shot can instakill.
Medic: Weapon: Healing gun Oo. This one is vital for the success of the team =P He can heal allies (or be tricked into healing an enemy spy), and, the most important, he can give invincibility to an ally for 10 secs (charging it takes some time, though)
Oh, have in mind that all characters carry 3 weapons. Primary, secondary, and Melee. AND you can unlock some special weapons and equipments, so you can costumize your character a little bit.
MAIN MODES:
Arena: Well, this is the closest to CounterStrike you can get. Just a killing-for-points withing the time limit
Payload: My favorite. There are 2 teams (up to 16 players per team), Red(defense) and Blue(attack), each one with a base. The objective of the Blue Team is to push a cart loaded with explosives from their base to the Red Base withing the time limit. This mode is really strategic, and take good communication between teammates in order to prevent flankings.
Control Point: Another mode that requires some strategy. There is a number of CPs around the map, and they can be taken by standing on them for a certain ammount of time. The teams must take the enemy CPs as well as defend theirs.
Data(I don't really remember the name of this one) : Again, a 2 teams confrontation. The objective here is to reach the core of the enemy base, get some documents and take them to your base. If the player carrying the documents gets killed, the documents return to the enemy base. Again, teamwork is needed in order to defend your own documents as well as penetrating the enemy defense and securing the bearer of the data.
There are other modes, but those are the ones I play the most. If you find yourself interested, it's pretty cheap... And it is available at Steam, since is a Valve game... oh, Team Fortress 2 is also included in the Orange Box.
ANYWAY -.- It's a great game and it would be very nice to see something close to this reaching Pandora
