Should hopefully be getting my copy in the post tomorrow morning.

So what does everyone think of this?

Must get. Even if it is a bit old CS is addictive. It has that X factor. There was just something about it. Can't wait!

I must say it does look strangely enticing for, what, a five year old game? How does it stack up against Rainbow Six 3?

I don't know what RS3 is like online yet, but every one who has played it raves about it. But yet CS still has thousands of players at any time on the PC. Plus it does still have the map making feature.

I have to get it.

Obviously much better on the PC though.

:P

Can you guys who buy it lemme know if you can connect to PC servers?

Obviously I don't have it yet, however to the best of my knowledge it won't be able to. The Live servers are all kept together and are meant to be live only. Although someone may eventually come up with a hack.

This looks good! A definite purchase when I get me new Xbox. Can anyone tell me, is it really that good without a keyboard/mouse? You have to have quick reactions with the PC CS and you can't react as quickly with a joypad.

Anyone know if MS (or third party) are planning an Xbox keyboard/mouse?

Nope, which is a good thing. PC servers are full of geeks, freaks and hackers.
