    I quite enjoy the concept of a single player experience in Counter Strike, and i enjoy Condition Zero. Its not a mind-blowing adaptation to the series, but its fun for people who are looking for a more casual, solitary, Counter Strike experience.

    This game is pretty fun to play may not be the same as the original but still its something. Plus you can do offline missions with bots so if your internet is down and you want to play counter strike offline to fill the time condition zero is for you.

    I loved this game, but the story mode can be boring sometimes. I'm glad I got it.

    i think this game is a very big upgrade to the old 1.6 version yet is does lack more map's than 1.6 i still think this game is 10 step's ahead of 1.6 with the graphics upgrades the buy menu upgrades (without useing script which i think is hacking) is nice i think the game all around is very very solid.

    I can't complain I got the game well the serial number only from K-Mart for $4.01 because the discs had been lost. Thank you steam for making lost discs or destroyed data no problem when installing, just had to add my new serial to my account and there you go the cheapest copy of Condition zero ever.

    Well die hard counter strike 1.6 players will be amazed to play this game . I think it is awesome and fills up all the missing parts of 1.6. The graphics, the sound and everything about the game is amazing. Everyone should try it.

    It's a shame it never got the support of the community, after bugfixes it's big improvement from 1.6(which people forget to this day is as buggy as it was 7 years ago), it provides better gameplay than css and less demanding grafix aswell

    i dont understand how normal counter strike has a better rating because this 1 has bots so you can play alone and it has a game where you pick ur teams depending on points and stuff so i think that counter strike condition zero would get much better results.

    This game is better than source, and the graphics are ok. The game itself isn't very realistic, but the custom game option is the best. Online is great, and their are a lot of cool servers to join.

    This was the best before source and is, in my opinion, still the best. The updated skins and map defaults-nades through walls-have been fixed and made it a better strategic experience than 1.6 ever was. Adding bots or a side fps is ok, but nothing to judge the game on. This game should receive a 10 and be on everyone's steam account.

    I dont understand why, but this game has received some pretty bad credit. However, I feel that the graphics are considerably better than cs and it can still run smooth on my old computer which is also a plus. The maps have much more detail than cs and although the single player never truly caught my attention, the normal gameplay is awesome.

    Clearly not the game everyone hoped for but I hope this will be the definitive score. Yes it is very similar to CS 1.6, but with the popularity of CS, why not try to copy it? In respect to graphical updates, the game certainly looks nicer in both player models and subtle details. The addition of bots is ingratiating, but don't expect too much from these CPU-controlled characters. If Clearly not the game everyone hoped for but I hope this will be the definitive score.

Otherwise this is a great game to purhcase if this is your first immersion into the world of online FPS.… Expand

    For people with average pc's and who have not played cs before, its a recommended buy! Ive been playen since release, and have seen many (free) cs players, that bought the game and didnt complain much. (The enhanced sequel cs:cz:source, feels less appreciated than the cz).

    The problem is that neither the physics nor the graphics have aged particularly well; if you're looking for a next-gen FPS, this is not it. It is, however, a decent update to one of the best titles of yesterday. [Apr 2004, p.108]

    Counter-Strike: Condition Zero only gets its score because of the multiplayer, and if you’re after this for anything other than a visual tweak and a disc filled with Half-Life 2 videos, you’d be best off not bothering at all.

    It certainly doesn't do enough to compete with today's shooters and the fact that much of the game is already available in another format makes this version seem a bit redundant.
