"Counter-Strike"

So has anyone got the game yet? I went to my town tonight (late night shopping) and asked the guy in HMV if they would sell me it early as gamestation were and he went and grabbed me a copy, it wasn't on the shelves though LOL, anyway will post impressions soon!

The graphics are pretty pants, but the game play and level design make up for that.

Bottom line is, if you're a graphics tart then don't get it. But if you're looking for a fun alternative to Rainbow Six 3, then you shouldn't be dissapointed. Some of the levels really are superb, particuarly the bank robbery and stadium levels...though I certainly haven't seen them all yet.

Are there any of the original CS levels in?

3 simple words: TAKING IT BACK.

DO NOT GET THIS GAME. The graphics are terrible for an X-box game, the sounds is awful, the controls are quite good and so is the general movement and animations.

That is jus**t my point of view from the single player, there is a chance it may be better on multi but you may as well buy or download it for the PC for MUCH better graphics, gameplay and everything else.

Trus**t me, if you're buying it thinking the single player is going to be good, you're in for a surprise.

At firs**t i was living in denial thinking it was going to get better but then it hit me and I really did say out loud '' My god this game is sh*t''.

Sorry to dissappoint anyone but these are jus**t my views.

Anyone who buys Counterstrike for the single player is either clinically braindead, or just completly insane.

I'm not even gonna attempt to play it on multi cos it . . . it's just terrible.

Counter-Strike on multiplayer will rule, but I'm not expecting the single player to be much cop because, like Unreal Tournament and Quake III, it's MAIN FOCUS is on the multiplayer.

isn't that the whole point of counter strike on the xbox.....multiplayer on live? so basically your saying its crap without even trying to play its best bit?


Cant wait til I get this game, whoo!

that is all....

CS is quality on Live, SP is obviously going to be non existant or poo, because the whole focus of the game is on MP, anyone who bought it for the SP certainly must be brain-dead!

I don't want to try it, it'll just be a waste of time and money in my opinion, sure I haven't tried it but it's just the general feel of the game i dont like.

It's probably due to the fact that the pc version is like 10x better.

I would have played it on muti. But I played it on single first and realised i didn't like it.
