If you are looking for a competitive, action-packed, online, first-person shooter, Counter-Strike: Source is the game for you. In the game, you are assigned either as a member of a SWAT team, or as one of the group of terrorists and are pitted against each other with opposing missions. For example, as a SWAT team member, your mission might be to save hostages from the terrorists. Or, if you are the terrorists, your mission would be preventing the rescue of the hostages. The goal is to win more rounds, over multiple levels, than the other team. To accomplish your mission, you will have to use carefully thought out teamwork and strategy. The need for teamwork has been very well thought out and impletmented, and is one factor that has made Counter-Strike: Source one of the new standards for first-person shooters.
This online only game is basically a remake of the Half Life mod, just built in more pleasing Source engine. It was originally a free mod for Half Life, but now you have to pay to play, as it has since become more developed. The company that originally developed the mod was Turtle Studios; if that name sounds familiar, it is because they are the makers of the popular Left 4 Dead games. If you want to see first-hand why the Counter-Strike game series has become so popular, download this game now, and prepare for one of the most crafted teamwork and strategy oriented first person shooters of recent times.
The best edition to the Counter-Strike family.
