    I think it's the absolut best cs game ever, because the sounds are much much better than in all the others. You can also have fun with the bots and that's cool that the bot intelligence has reached this far. 10 times 10 - or like the public would say it, - it R0xx0r !!!!

    I love this game not only because of the bots, but because it's a great place to test my maps, without complaints. I build maps for CS and this is where I test my maps, to see how playable it is, rather than playing online and people saying "dust plz".

    I find this the best CS of all of them. cs1.6 is good so if you already have that don't bother This is best for joe average because in CS source all the difference is lower FPS and longer load times.

    This is a GREAT improvement to CS 1.6 and has alot of extra features also the nav files are so complex they give the other bots a kick in the butt. Don't care what the critics said, they're thick.

    I my self never played CS before this game, it's a good entry point into the series, I don't think it's much of a necessity if you already have CS or CS:S. all we can wait for now is CS:SCZ

    before I got this game I did not even know about cs. I played with 1.6 and cz when I got the game I found cz to be better with the size of nades and such. over all this is the best fps game I have played.

    This game is pretty crappy by itself, however, the deleted scenes are amazing. The normal gameplay is absolute trash, and I have no idea why they redid the game and made the TurtleRock mode the main gameplay. All that gameplay mode requires is you play a CS map, like de_dust, and get a bunch of achievements.

    However, the deleted scenes are actual missions not related at all to any of the CS maps. The first level, for example, has you crash landing in a helicopter in Northern Africa, and you have to reach an evacuation point. You have to fight through a bunch of terrorists to get there, and you have to rescue your buddy that got captured by them. The deleted scenes are a bit more in-depth than that, but I can't exactly go on and explain how every single level is different.

    All-in-all, I hated this game until I tried the deleted scenes. After that, I thought those were amazing, and were worth the money I paid for this.    … Expand

    This game is very good, and what the others say about it being buggy and all thats just a big lie because I own the three Counter-Strikes and this one is good to be played once in a Hour, and I'm not kidding, it has bots, It has mission, it comes with the mod Delected Cenes with more missions, and if you think that the bots are dumb, thats because your playing it in easy god damm, This game is very good, and what the others say about it being buggy and all thats just a big lie because I own the three Counter-Strikes and this one is good to be played once in a Hour, and I'm not kidding, it has bots, It has mission, it comes with the mod Delected Cenes with more missions, and if you think that the bots are dumb, thats because your playing it in easy god damm, put in expert and then you will have a great challenge and a great time it this game.

    Good Game, better than 1.6. This game is, in my opinion, easier than 1.6 because the recoil is slighty easier to handle, and the graphics have been increased a bit.

    I think czero is a very good game and the addition of Bots was a great advantage.

    With the mods u can get for this game, its amazing, plus u can create ur own missions if u want.. this is a single player game basically and the score is not based on the multiplayer aspect of the game.. just the great single player action, and with tonystrike or something like that... wow! thanks valve!

    Online gaming is taking to the max... updated graphics and models from 1.6 but keeps the great gameplay that will keep you hooked for hours on end.

    Really quite good. The difference between 1.6 and Condition Zero is quite large in the fact that the details are much more realistic. For example, the blood splatters realistically on walls and the floor, and the graphics are much better.

    True test of team strategy and skill. Combined with versatility of games (i.e. fy, fun, he to name a few) blows all other games like this out of the water.

    This game rocks! The high amount of weapons to choose from and many exciting maps is great fun! My favourite map is cs_office, just like most of my other friends. I'm glad this game got a high rating; it deserves one!

    This game was not purposely made to be a half life 2 or halo game that everyone loves. The original cs was a mod with poor graphics but great gameplay. This game was designed to enhance those graphics and sounds to partial pc standards so if people do not like cs source and want to stick with classic gameplay, they do not have to go all the way back to classic half life graphics.

I personally prefer this game over cs source becuase it seems quicker paced and the crosshair does not takes much less time to settle then in css. Also it is much easier to run this game on a slow internet then css.… Expand

    Even over 3 years later the grafics are still great and the AI is as foritable enemies and team mate for even the most hard core of players.

    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.
