Default Counter Strike

Hi,

I am thinking of starting to play Counter Strike, since so many of my friends in the past used to play it. They don't play anymore, but I noticed that over 40,000 players are still playing it online (according to gamespyarcade.com).

If there's any active CS players in here, could you let me know what I should get? There's Half Life, Counter Strike, Condition Zero, Source, Half Life 2, etc. Which one should I buy? Which one is the most active online?

hello. I'm Grievou$ in css and among of other games. My suggestion is get cs 1.6 by itself and half life 2 which includes css and day of defeat source. I like the new css better than 1.6 it self, I perfer not to get 1.6 but get hlf2 series which includes css, dod source. That is only for 39.95 including tax. Also you would need to download steam. click on this website I gave you and surf there. www.steampowered.com

This is also alot cheaper, if you go to bestbuy or walmart it cost 50 bucks for a key. You save less than that.

If you have trouble please aim me at ltsang95@hotmail.com

Later.

Maybe better graphics, but the source physics suck in Counter Strike. Everything either feels like it is practically weightless or too heavy to be moved.

Half-life2 is the ebst single player, and for multiplayer, I would get day of defeat and screw counterstrike all together, DoD>CS and PLENTy of people still play online, and i would go sourceless.

I think its awesome, if you look at the physics of CS or CS:CZ, those suck. hardly anything can be moved, some things dont show bullet holes, and when people die they fall through walls and floors.

I think most people here that are gamers paly CS of some sort. I also play Day of Defeat: Source, i hate the original one though.

Who said you did? Anyways you actully do with one of the packages, not just HL2 i think. It's only 10$ for the origianl one, which IMO is better, they made to many gayness changes too wepon damage and the maps.
