Our Review: After a series of very, very good beta releases, the CS Team (after forging a deal with Valve, makers of Half-Life), has finally come out with version 1.0. It comes with all new retail packages of Half-Life, but is amazing still free for downloading. For those of you who don't know what it is, basically it is a mod for Half-Life that allows you to play in teams over the internet as either Terrorists or Counter-Terrorists. The gameplay is simply out of this world, as it is a mix of action and strategy (i.e. will you go in guns blazing or stand back and pick people off with a sniper rifle). There are weapons aplenty, such as sniper rifles, shotguns, sub-machine guns, and assault rifles. Fans will be pleased to hear of several new weapons, namely the H&K UMP .45, FN Five-Seven, & SIG SG-550. If you own a copy of Half-Life, you must have this. Its as simple as that. One of the most signficant developments in gaming for years. NOTE: by clicking download you will be redirected to the developer's site where you can select the upgrade or full version download (Linux versions are also available). Leaves all the others for dead.
