    Hey guys,
    Can someone tell me about CSS? I play mw2 on the pc and I always hear players talking about how CSS is so much better for competitive gaming. But I watch gameplay footage and it looks rather outdated as far as fps' go. So whats the deal?
    Thanks!

    Oh man, I go back when Counter Strike was CS 1.5. It was the coolest game ever. Then comes 1.6 which was good. And then Source. I am a huge fan of the Counter Strike series. They're really fun. Get it!

    It's a lot plainer and not as hardcore. You buy guns and that's it. It's pretty sweet though, I prefer it over COD.

    Also, there's no leveling up and stuff.

    If you do gungame its a lot more fun (atleast for me) basically everyone starts on glock and levels up through guns in order of power and the first person to finish the line of levels (25 i think) wins the game

    Josh! As a huge fan of Ravensword I have to let you know that Counter-strike (Source and 1.6) are my most played games ever. Even more than Morrowind and Oblivion, combined, and I've logged 300 hours into morrowind alone.

    I don't know why. I cannot tell you why repeating 4 minute rounds over and over again never gets old. I was 12 when I first started playing cs, I'm now 20. It's still as addicting as it was before. Endless content due to down-loadable maps. Want to switch it up? try Zombie Invasion mod. Hell, I even spent a month perfecting Counter-Strike "Surfing", a sport resulting from Half-Life's friction engine. And there are servers which use RPG mods. You choose your race and killing people earns you XP to get skills, level up, and improve your abilities which actually help you on the field.

    Get it. If you don't like it, give me your paypal account and I will give you your money back.
