Is it possible to include example #include "test.sp" only if the game is TF2? curious question

#include happens at compile time, I don't think the compiler knows what game it's compiling for, only when the plugin is running can you determine which game. Write the code in such a way that the checks happen while the plugin is active even if some include is for other games.

You can use #tryinclude <> so it will attempt to include but still compile if the file is missing. If you're using any natives from an optional include you should detect if the include loaded (e.g. using #if !defined _SomePlugin_included - a defined variable from the include file, most properly written includes will have this) to define the missing native and avoid using it. You also have to use MarkNativeAsOptional on any optional natives or the plugin will fail when they're missing. You can see my Prototype Grenades plugin as an example using this method.
