    The Unreal Tournament style single player is a CS fan's dream come true - play your favourate maps with critically acclaimed A.I. bots (plus new unique goals for each map) and customize a scenario to your liking (e.g. Militia with hard bots only using Shotguns and all bots join CTs while you are the sole T protecting the hostages with a sniper gun). I simply cannot comprehend how The Unreal Tournament style single player is a CS fan's dream come true - play your favourate maps with critically acclaimed A.I. bots (plus new unique goals for each map) and customize a scenario to your liking (e.g. Militia with hard bots only using Shotguns and all bots join CTs while you are the sole T protecting the hostages with a sniper gun). I simply cannot comprehend how some CS fans do not like this game -the top-quality bots and customizabiltiy make this my top game of the year! It only failed to get a 10 by my ranking because of the poor "deleted scenes" part (and calling it "deleted scenes" does not prevent it from bringing the rating down -its still part of the game and part of the marketing for the game!

    Counter-Strike Condition Zero is not worth walking to the store and paying $9.95 or ordering it online. It has very little changes compared 1.6 and the game has become a spawning ground for newbies with little challenge in online game play.

    I'm a Counter Strike junkie and this game was absolutely perfect for me. It was awhile before I got Source, so CZ kept me busy. I love the fact that the hostages are smart (sort of) enough to run away, animations have been improved and a slight improvement in graphics that have been added. Forget the low scores that some critics gave this game. I love it, and it's the CS I'm a Counter Strike junkie and this game was absolutely perfect for me.

    Aside from going practically insane online with people I just dont even understand could get so good, I love to play online, as well as with the bots. the bots are definitly a step up, as you can play any level you want. there is downloadables such as skins that can also improve the game a bit, and map downloads, so even if the base game werent as good as it is, it could be made even better.

    Whats so good about it to CS 1.6 nothing FUN about it! Not much people play it in some places and 1.6 is MORE POPULAR! Just becase of the better graphics you would want to play a boring game!! 1.6 or source is way better!!!!! and u cant say CZ is better then CSS all I can say is if you think CZ is better then CSS: Sad Sad Sad......

    This is a very fun game, I have enjoyed it alot, but if you're a hardcore Counter-Strike junkie already, this aint your game, but if you're kinda bored, but still looking into something like Counter-Strike, this is your game. It's fresh, new, and fun, for example hostages will run away on their own if you don't guard them.

    A potentially great game but it's really just a better version of Counter Strike, with a sad attempt at a singleplayer game. I honestley would give this a 7 but the community for the multiplayer portion of the game is what ruined the first counter strike, and it still remains in this game.

    While the single player campaign is utterly awful (comparable to a poorly thought out amateur mod) as is the single player mode (play regular game against only bots to unlock maps you can already play online, oh boy!), it is a good update for players with older computers or who don't like source.

    This game is pretty crappy by itself, however, the deleted scenes are amazing.

All that gameplay mode requires is you play a CS map, like de_dust, and get a bunch of achievements.

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.

    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.

    It's one of the worst games i have ever played, it gets bored too fast.. I play CS online for about 6 years and i enjoy it, so where is the problem? the answer - single player :) it can be played just by the people, who haven't got internet connection...

    The game is highly playable and is very high detail for people using older and slower computers

    This game is ok but the only thing good about it is some new graphics. the 1 player mode is a joke because the bots just stand there. overall this game is only good if you really love updated models and guns.

    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.

    Hey if you want a better looking vesion of the original cs here it is but I emphasize BETTER because it is not the best in my opinion. It is almost the same game as the original. In game play it is a slamdunk, like its predasesor. But in conclution I would way rather play CS Source including the fact is very very nice in every departmant (graphics, gameplay, etc.),or the original cs (the Hey if you want a better looking vesion of the original cs here it is but I emphasize BETTER because it is not the best in my opinion.

    I thought it was pretty cool, it's like playing a re-released Gameboy game that you once had, but lost when you moved house for the 18th time, and with nicer textures. Why are people complaining so much? It's just a bit of fun, moody gits!

    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.

    This game was a dissapointment. it took valve way to long to take cs 1.6, and add bots (wich by the way are shit) and make you have to unlock maps. i hate bots so much, and i think they should be taken off of the game. they sit there like retards, atleast make them smart. half of the time they sit in a corner and stare at an enemy through the wall, who is also hiding in another corner....

    This has a very good Single player RP part. Could make stuff like noise, more realistic (Breaking open a lock (very loud) with a little wall in the way, and the enemy not noticing).

    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.
