So guess what i found out this morning.. That's right, a new counterstrike is coming out.
I know right? THAT'S SO AWSOME! I don't know how many of you guys played the older
counter strikes, but I've been playing counterstrike since 1.6, and I still ocasionally
jump on and play a couple of rounds. I loved that game man, and i had a good nostalgia
moment when i saw the trailer for the new "Counter-strike: Global Offensive" game.
I just remembered, how my sommers would be spent on playing css all night, then get up,
play some more and then go out and skate with my friends. All summer. Epic..
now let's talk about the game itself.
In the trailer, I noticed a couple of things.
1. The graphics is not amazing, or on Call of duty/battlefield level. But I have to say,
it does look pretty damn good for a counter-strike game.
2.New weapons. Weapons everywhere! Now for me this is a good thing, because let's be honest,
we are all a bit tired of the old weapons. And then plus, more gun veriaty is allways
good in a first person shooter.
3. New maps. This is not really a big deal to me, since there were so many good map makers
in the css and 1.6 community. But It's still pretty nice.
4. Ranked match making. AWSOME! awsome, awsome, awsome! I can not say this too much,
match making is key! This is where the cod and bf franchise fails to me, no good matchmaking.
It just makes it all the more fun, and compettetive.
5. New game modes. Now this is just like the maps, not such a big deal to me. The modding
community made tons of gamemodes by themselves in css, so GO* souldn't be a challenge.
However, having official game modes, with possibly leaderboards and such, is pretty damn cool.
Counter strike GO is coming out in 2012, realesed by the company valve. It's cross platform wich means console kiddies can play too.. *sadface*..see the trailer on steam now!
So, I'm definitely getting out. How about you? Are you as psyched as i am?
Tell me why / why not.

SvarSletHah, I was so excited when I heard about this. Good info!
SvarSletPre-ordering this for sure!
SvarSletPersonally I think the game looks great, even thugh I'm not specially happy about it being in consoles too.
SvarSletNever played any counter-strike games, but I might need to make an exception for this! +followed
SvarSletUsed to play CS for a long time... Good ol' times
SvarSletWonder if this will be the new CS Source that all of the oldies will hate
SvarSletOnly thing is, I hope that it doesnt split the fanbase.
SvarSletYou dont want people to stick to 1.6 cause GO sucks : /
Sounds like its worth trying out.
SvarSletThat's good news! I love CS, looks like Ima be playing it again :)
SvarSletIt's a dream come true.
SvarSletI'm definitely gonna check this. Even though I haven't played the old CS. I started playing FPS games online only recently with CoD:MW and MW2.
SvarSletSounds like fun
SvarSletI enjoy cs source on occasion. I am a console and pc guy i get the best of both worlds :)
SvarSletI'd like to play this game
SvarSletPlayed Counter strike a little while back, really didnt like it, but I'll give it a go when this comes out again! :D
SvarSleti'm pretty psysched about the game, just looked at it a little today and have to say it should be amazing.
SvarSletTotally pumped for this one! I can't wait.
SvarSletCounter Strike 1.6 all the way!!
SvarSletsound god man!
SvarSletI remember CS1.6 all too well :). Perhaps will play some with my pals when I have more time.
SvarSleti think this game is old enough to be legend, but new graphics and items won't make better. so i think this game will fail.
SvarSletI only playrd original version. But i am certain i will look this up.
SvarSletGame looks okay
SvarSletgoing to check this out, never really got into the counter strike genre of gaming...
SvarSletOld news, man, old news :P.
SvarSletI'll probably buy the game, I've played CS 1.6 for several years.
SvarSletHell yes. Love CS, going to jump in and play again on this one.
SvarSletCan't wait for i too. CS is my biggest love <3
SvarSletCant wait till GO comes out. Its gonna be pretty legit.
SvarSletthis is looking great man, love CS
SvarSletI am ready for this game, loading up the old CS as I talk.
SvarSletlooks great! love CS
SvarSletI'm thinking about buying a PS3 just for this game. But not sure yet.
