    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

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

    This is a very good valued game. I cant belive CS got a higher mark for something.CZ has better graphics and better gameplay.I dont see why this franchise has "GONE TO FAR". The same people who said that loved sorce.

    This game rocks! The high amount of weapons to choose from and many exciting maps is great fun! My favourite map is de_dust2, just like most of my other friends. I'm glad this game got a high rating; it deserves one!

    DO NOT judge this game by bots. Bots are simply for use for Ofline modes, not while on the Internet. This is absurd if you say the game is a 4 or lower just because of the bots. This game has excellent skins, more maps, and better sounds, and ALOT more stuff that does'nt interfere with the Counter-Strike fanaticism! Quit whining.

Counter-Strike Deleted Scenes is NOT Counter-Strike, by the way, just a different game, like a RPG FPS like Halo, perhaps. A MUST BUY!!! It's only 10$ now. Used to be 50$. Expand

    C'est tout simplement le meilleur jeu de tout la série Counter-Strike ! Il est plus poussé que CS1.6 et le gameplay est mieux que CSS. On voit un réalisme, sans avoir les défauts de Source, avec pleins d'objets dans les jambes et le réalisme, justement, trop poussé. C'est bien le réalisme mais c'est tout de même un jeu !

    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]
  2. 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.
