    One of the best multiplayer games, BUT i give it an 8 because i think it's not free to play because of Prime. When I compare the gameplay on a Prime and a Non Prime account, the main difference is not that without Prime there is no ranks, but the CHEATERS. On Non Prime Arms Race i find 4 cheaters per hour of gameplay, while on Prime i had only 1 cheater in 120h of playing with PrimeOne of the best multiplayer games, BUT i give it an 8 because i think it's not free to play because of Prime.

But Prime is a one-time payment and it's affordable, so I recommend playing with Prime than without Prime. Expand

    The best FPS game on the market. It has battle royale, ffa, bomb scenario and a lot more. The only sad part is that you need a paid subscription to see your stats and your rank. It just feels incomplete.

    Counter Strike is one of the best computer video games in history..Since I was young I used to play alone or with my friends..The game has a wide reputation throughout history and I advise everyone to try it again and enjoy

    I played hundrets of hours of Counter Strike: Global Offensive and i still enjoy every round i play. The variaty of tactics and the different maps make a rather simple game very hard to master. Being able to buy and sell skins also adds an intresting element to the game that i really like.

    Une pépite des fps. On peut difficilement faire mieux malgré la simplicité du jeu.

    CS:GO is awesome. I've been playing the series since early CS 1.2 or so.

    There's nothing to say to convince you one way or another; it's a free to play game now.

    The official game modes are great. Matchmaking system is decent.

    Community servers are where this game really shines. Custom game modes such as Surfing are game changers in CS:GO.

    TL;DR
    CSGO .. GO PEW PEW.

    There is not much more to say about the first shooter i grew up with then i love it. I had so many fun experiences. You really are beginning to notice that you become better in any game just by playing this one. Perfect for beginning. Must play for every gamer.

    the thing that i can say, that this game is too hard, but at the same time enjoyable.

    A lot of Russians all over EU that don't speak a ton or really communicate other than screaming at you for a mistake that they themselves made. Otherwise a really good game that requires you to sharpen your skills on every aspect of the game.

    Metacritic is wrong. This game was so good, I got my friends into it. If I had to show someone a multiplayer-FPS game, this would be my first choice.

    Just the best FPS game, Gold Nova - Master Guardian 1 can be really toxic but over hall game is just great. And the E-sport is just so big its crazy

    Best FPS game, Good textures, good gameplay - aim tricks, recoils,crosshairplacements. Good movement system for fps - strafes and geometrical angles. Best map design and balance. Nice skins - good design, no too painted and no too bright. Good cybersport matches and amazing servers(ping). Very good optimization. Amazing game for clever peoples who like fps games

    Brilliant old-school shooter has convinced us that Counter-Strike franchise is in no way to be retired or forgotten. [Oct 2012]

    A fast, demanding shooter with a huge potential for the future. It's basically CS: Source, but the maps are more polished and the game looks better. [11/2012, p.64]

    For a non-professional Counter-Striker, Global Offensive is just a cosmetic facelift, with re-run levels. [Sept 2012]
