There's simply no better MP game out there. CSS is old so it's not so tempting anymore, but a new one would definately rock. as I see it the only reason people play COD games is because there's no new CS they could play, or they are simply stupid. And please no one be offended I'm just kidding.

Counter-Strike is what spawned this entire cult of multiplayer games. OG games like CS, Diablo, and Starcraft is the reason why multiplayer has blossomed into the competitive scene that it is today. RESPECT MA AUTHORITA!

new engine on a classic game has always = win if it's done right.

I'm hoping this means hl2 episode 3 isn't too far off.

Maybe they will make the original like TF2 and have it so you can buy camo for your guns so the game is free, and we have 12 year olds running around mic spamming with pink camo guns cause those are super effective in real life.

God forbid.

Why does everyone always say this? Just because a game won't be PC exclusive doesn't automatically make it a fail....I just shake my head at this.

Because moving a PC focused game to consoles as well has ALWAYS made it worse; Call of Duty, Battlefield (to date), Dragon Age, Gothic, Aliens vs Predator.. need I go on?
