Find a dark corner, time the lag, shoot were he will apear next and bloom his head exploded. good times.
Team Fortress began on Quakeworld. by the time Quake 2 rolled out though Valve had purchased the rights to TF and remade it for Half-Life. an independant dev team made their own TF-like mod for Quake 2 called Weapons Factory which IMO was even better than the original (faster gameplay, offhand grapple, flying recon, etc). then Quake 3 came out and things got really confusing. WF had it's own sequel (Weapons Factory Arena) and a new mod called Quake 3 Fortress came out and mimiced the original TF as closely as it could

it's been quite awhile since i've played any of those though, and the TF junkie that i am i can't wait until TF2. got my copy preordered and preloaded waiting to go for monday
