Its an overrated* First Person Shooter game online.
*In my opinion.
its not over rated..... halo is over rated..... Counter Strike is fun and addictive
All FPS are overrated. ;)
:ninja:
Amen to that. I have an Xbox, and sometimes I think I'm the only guy in the world who dislikes Halo.Quote:

:o ok, halo is overrated, but a fun game to play nontheless (this u gotta admit), although it has it's faults thus the overration (i know that's not a word). as for counterstrike, i'm playing it right now :D . what is it? it's a mod of a game called half life made by sierra and valve the engine which they originall bought off the legendary iD software. now, enough talk, go play some cs, it's freaking addicting man i swear to god my eyesight is getting worst by the day because of CS :lol: <_<

IMO This game is boring. I played it for a couple of hours.. wahoo! shot some aliens blah blah all the same...
sorry all the halo fans out there but http://filesharingtalk.com/generator...1007345076.png
cs: unlimited possibilities

cs is a decent fps but not that best and it is far from being a great online experience or something that changed gaming as we know it
personally i think socomII is the best online fps or at least one of them

CS was a kicka$$ game when it came out. so there, it isnt that far from the truth :D
The 3 things i hate about counterstrike
1) HAckers
2) Lagg
3) Steam
anyways I love cs and all fps in the world exept halo :D
cs is only fps i still play after a period of time, so yea it is good and very cheap

make it 6 :) lolol.
halo was fun when i first downloaded it, for a few hours, then next day when i went to play it again I found that everything was rpetty much the same as teh night before, except that im in a slighty different map. there is this one part where you have to follow some flying robot thing, and that part is just a repeat just repeats itself like 10 times before youve finished the level <_<
CS, i havent tried yet.
May I ask how CS is a tactical shooter?
Its just a bunch of glory boys, either cheating or some middle aged pale faced wank that obsesses over spending 24 hours a day trying to improve themselves.
Even if there are no cheats on the server, the best teamwork you get is somebody saying you got an 1337 shot... Tactical my arse.
If Halo was released for PC like it should have been, it would have been ripped apart by the competition. The Xbox, however, had no other competing games. It became cult, now its highly over rated. It did bring about the proliferation of fun vehicles though.
Madcat... thats why you join a clan...join a good clan and enter OGL. That way you can actually have some tactics... and it doesnt matter if you dont win OGL cause its for fun anyways. Playing in Pub can be tedious but if u join like a 14 player server theres usually more tactics then a 32 player server.

it's not the best. but the origin of all good online fps
Halo isnt overrated. You guys must have never played multiplayer. Get 3 or 4 systems going so theres no screen looking. If you play like that its one of the best games ever.
Socom 1 and 2 are much better then counterstrike.
i havent played SOCOM b4 ay? is it better than CS?
i might start a poll :ph34r:
u havent played solcom before either? good, atleast im not the only one for that game lol...Quote:

1. tony hawk underground
2. tony hawk pro skater 4
3. atv offroad fury 2.
i got my ps2 just so i could get thug lol. it came with atv offroad fury 2 for free, and tony hawk four i bought form my friend cause he begged me to cause he needed money lol.
I hate halo. its so boring even playing LAN with for 4 xboxs. CS on the otherhand never gets boring for me, i love that game
ok, ok. I'll buy CS. Do I need a controller?

A controller is better cause that way your not reaching everywhere for the little key you need to hit. If you're used to console games, get 1. If you get it for xbox, you need to get xbox live.
That's only a problem if you got small hands.Quote:

Always use a mouse and keyboard for online pc games, it takes some getting used to if you're an old school console gamer at first but once you get the hang of it it pwns.
Kiddy controllers don't even compared to the mouse and keyboard combo, gg.

So basically I don't need a controller? It's just an option?
hard to play first person shooters with a joystick and even worse with a pad
controllers are for console games..you're on a computer now, use the mouse and keyboard
Ya Get yourself a nice 5 button mouse it's really conveient
CS = naff
try playing
Operation Flashpoint
a game that takes real brains to play
and som patients
or vietcong
Counter Strike if fookin gay. Ohhhh...Plant the bomb...OMGOMGOMGOMGOMG A bomb, hurry defuse it now.
is this the one I should get?
Yes.
I have played halo with 4 xbox before pretty fun but u gotta have a bunch of people to play at once which is the only downside but playing 16 player halo on lan with a 4 port switch and a bunch of ethernet cords on xbox is funner then cs id have to agree but playing cs on the internet on my spare time is fun also :D
