Oct 11, 2010A very awesome and challenging game,but when it comes to cheaters it really sucks.80% of the counter strike servers today are non-steam so you will find a bunch of 12 year old cheaters.

Aug 22, 2010I've played this game since 2000, I even still have the retail disk's sitting next to me, i love this game it's one of my favorite games i have ever played in my life time, if your into counter terrorism or just here to have some fun you will love this game as it provides custom mod servers to play on.

GeorgeBApr 21, 2010This game is so well balanced, maps well guilt, gameplay still stronger than any other shooter out there. It deserves to be bought right on steam. I have been playing cs for 10 years since its release date, and i will always love this game. Pretty much my childhood :] and im not a virgin for u queer dicks reading this saying "nerd".

DamonNortonOct 1, 2009I have been playing this mod for 10 years now. Every time I play a new game, I always come back to this one. This truly is revolutionary game. The game play is like no other FPS. It is intense and addicting. My ALL TIME Favorite FPS game and one of my top two favorite ALL TIME games PERIOD.

ConnyszandtnerAug 31, 2009Counter-strike is the best game you can play online its so good. If u dont have something to do just play Counter-strike and you will be happy. Well this is something i just have to say we all start as a noob then we go Pro.! The awsome thing is you can even make money out of being a great player.

EpicB.Jul 24, 2009This is one of the best multiplayer games created ever! I think it won't be forgotten, because thera're lots of mods, because it's simply edittable and it makes people play it! Let the CS rock!

BrunoJJun 17, 2009This is a very good game with lots of servers with all kind of people. It has its several mods from Super Heros to the lastest Pokemod. This is one of the rare cases where its an old game that will continue to advance in time without it being forgot.

ShaunChanApr 17, 2009Great game, physics seem realistic if you've ever gone running around with an ak 47 the recoil is accurate, its a very very cheap game to buy and you get way more than your moneys worth. If there was an 11 on the scale of 1-10 id give it just that.

TylerGApr 15, 2009Been playing Counter-Strike since 2000. The most amazing game I have ever laid my eyes upon. Still to this day, 9 years later, as I have grown up with counter-strike through the years, we continue to live on together. Amazing. My kids will be playing this game in no time. Counter-Strike Source, as new as it is, doesn't even match up to this!
-
-
ChrisMajtanApr 15, 2009Counter Strike 1.6 is the best of Counter Strike. Period. The game play in 1.6 is unparalleled in the FPS world even by its own successors. The fact that CS:S and CS: 1.6 are even comparable rating wise is a mockery of any rating system that exists. Look at the player stats for both games. Enough said.

nadersunnaaApr 14, 2009this is the best GAME ever made. I have played every FPS game out, nothing compares to this game. the graphics are still very good for a game that came out in 2000 and the mechanics and gameplay doesn't compare to any other game. all other fps games are a HUGE dissapointment. CS IS THE BEST GAME EVER MADE.

LOLPicksFeb 1, 2009This game traveled along time into 1.6, and now CZ, and then today, CS:S arrived. If you like CZ or CS:S DO NOT forget about CS 1.6--1.0 It is like the creator of CS:S and CZ, Hope they make a another good cs game! NO CS ONLINE I HATE IT BADLY!

PeterB.Oct 7, 2008There is no game on the market, even today, which surpasses this game's skill-success ratio. This game requires aim, patience, quick thinking, and caffeine.
-
-
NoamA.Sep 27, 2008this is the most popular game in this 'hole' world, that real gamers still playing even they forbidden to touch a pc. i think this game will stay on the market at least 2 years. want explanation? here some: 1)the graphic is good and doesn't stacking comps. 2)it upgrade your reflexes. 3)it can pass 6 hr in 2 min. i think its enough for now.

BenB.Sep 14, 2008Great game. Works perfectly with older computers and still looks just fine. 10 points. Better than CS:Source.

CrippledW.Sep 12, 2008Been playing for over 4 years and it never gets old. Graphics may be shit, but its game play is unsurpassed for an online FPS.
-

AexF.Sep 12, 2008This game never gets old and is very addictive. In my opinion, it is much better the any other version of Counter strike. You will play this for hours once you get the hang of it!

Mr.M.Aug 23, 2008The perfect online fps, nothing comes close, nothing at all. You will not find a better fps that literally requires the same amount of skill and tactics required to play this game. Twitch gaming at its finest, forget counter strike source, 1.6 PROVES gameplay over graphics will prevail.

NickD.Aug 18, 2008Dude, this is a game that came out over 10 years ago and is still going strong with the online community. Even with all its newer versions and upgrades, the original still hasn't been beat. Simple shooter action but done with perfection and to the tee precision.

SteveJun 4, 2008Every so often a game in a genre comes around that seems to be the peak of the genre. CS is like that with multi player shooters. Its better than anything before it and everything after it just adds un-necessary additions like better graphics or new "features" (like prone position, duck and cover) This is a pure shooter, the michael jordan of the genre.

IvanT.May 1, 2008Starting to play and love it since 2000, and still addicting even it is already 8 years! I agree that graphics are outdated and I also hate that we can shoot through almost all walls, that 2 minus points make me rate 8 rather than 10. And the plus points are many,many internet servers available or create your own via dedicated server and if you buy via steam, you get Condition Zero also
