Counter-Strike Global Offensive

[Monk]

its coming out the same day as guild wars 2; so thats a negative.

[Antwan]

It's already out on xbox..
anyway, The Trial is playable online.. 45 minutes of in-game..
Played my time out. Might redownload to see if I can play again
It's great.. took a little bit to figure it out but it's worth a shot if you play on PC
I like it anyway. Cool to have a controller in counter strike.. got stoked seeing new versions of old maps like De_Office and Dust 2 on my TV.

Is it worth buying do you think?

[Antwan]

Personally I am a huge fan of counter strike.. I am buying it when I get the loose change for it.
The button layout is strange if you're a call of duty head but once you get it going
it's great.. it's a nice change of pace. Try the trial yourself.
If you're not a CS fan I could understand if you don't get into it like the fans do..
Just seeing old maps and new looks is enough to get me playing for a while.
Finally on console too.. Yes. Snipers are pretty fun, and very dominate..
This game is about rush or be rushed.. a true run n gun tactical kind of game.
It holds true to what it was still and with what I saw in the trial I am ready to play the shit out of it.
I haven't seen all the game modes yet but the classic team based Hostage Rescue and Bomb planting is confirmed.

I want to try it on PC, but no demo yet to my knowledge.
Most of my future game time starting early tomorrow morning will be devoured by Guild Wars 2.

If you buy it on console, then it ain't CS you're playing.. CS is a great game/mod that should be played on PC.

I have me self been playing CS since 1.3 back in the days. Didn't care much for CSS and stayed with 1.6 for quite a few years. Haven't played CS in a a couple of years now but I picked up the CS GO beta 3 days before release and I'm enjoying it so far. Feels like a good mix of both 1.6 and CSS.

Will definitely play this for a while, but 1.6 is where my heart will always be at.

btw if you're new to the CS franchise, try to play on some Surf servers or KZ (jump) servers, or even Aim servers. Now that's great fun imo! Pretty much all I played the last 2 years I played CS.

Well Isn't The Console version just a "Mod" of the computer version?
You should play the one on console, I think CS Fans would be surprised.
Everything looks to be the same to me.. the Source engine runs fantastic on xbox..
The glass breaks like it was tempered or something and you walk through..
I don't know I guess it's similar to counter strike source in a bunch of ways.
I bought every counter strike game on PC and now that it's on 360, No Turning Back!
The only change I would ask for was that they went through with cross platforming..
for better or worse, Player hosted PC servers have mods as mentioned, surf, zombies, and more.
Would be insane to play that shit on my TV. Currently, I cannot!
That is one thing I was hoping for when I heard about them doing cross platforming.
Apparently, the only reason they didn't do it was because they had to bunch updates into one package instead of
3 different, more controlled ones. Bogus. Oh well, still worth a mention and play.. add me if you get on console.
Can't wait to pick this up.
