I would have used your review to decide my purchase of the game, but then again you didnt even play it multi (dont have live?) so your review is as good as void (to me) as I think a lot of people are getting the game for it's online feature. Until someone plays it online and says it's crap like the single player feature, we're still planning to get the game.

One question, are CS and RS3 1 player only online? I cant find a straight answer anywhere. Now a game like TS2 that would be great online :)

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

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.

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!

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.

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

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.
