    A 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.

    This 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".

    One of the best first person shooters of all time. This game has survived the ages, despite Condition Zero and Source being released

To all idiots who think CS sucks, You suck. Counter Strike offers gameplay which requires a bit of skill and knowledge of recoil for each gun. Telling you not to shoot too much and shoot your gun steadily. You may suck at the first time you play, but it's part of the game, your never good automatically, you have to GET GOOD. The only thing i disliked about Counter Strike are the hackers and cheaters, but it's a rare chance to see them, and the AWP Magnum sniper being so strong but expensive. The game offers a large variety of maps, guns, and if your sick of that, there are tons of Modded maps, Skins, and Mods for the game like Zombie Mod, Surfing, Jail Break, and even Deathmatchs.… Expand

    This game is very addictive, for sure many agree with me. This is a very good game, is one of the best games in first person shooting. This game is very good, this is guaranteed. But this game and many others have always a disadvantage that I hate, are cheating. If it were possible to set up the game and then it would be impossible to use cheats.

So it would be simply a wonderful game, without cheats, and so could be seen the true leets, which are often leets are not cheaters and get ban without doing anything. So if a person had to play it was guaranteed that it was not cheat, because it would be impossible to use cheats. And so the game would be better without cheats or noobs calling cheaters to people without cheats..… Expand

    The game is well known for leagues and lanning! I been to the majority of the following. CAL, OGL, CPL, WCG, ESL, XPL, ESEA, CEVO, LAN Tourny and more. This game relies on skill, fast reaction, and good hearing. Its a balanced game, and its the most addicting game I own. I am a proud supporter of Counterstrike and I rate this a 10/10 for just badassness and all around funness and laughs. The game is well known for leagues and lanning!

    I don't understand why Counter-strike is so popular. I loved every Valve game to date, except counter-strike. I played Team fortress classic when Counter-strike was so popular. Recently I decided to buy it from steam. I found it bland, boring and repetative. Always the same: plant the bomb shoot the counter-terrorists, win/lose.

    Counter-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.

    This 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!

    This 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.
