I don't know, I didn't feel like CS:S was forced down our throats, I eventually switched because I wanted to. The CS communities are quite large, most people would probably never even know if the population was segmented. You can always find a full server with a low ping and that's what matters. Hell, you can always find a full server running the most esoteric mods and silly CS variations imaginable even.

Anyways definitely going to pick it up, $15 is a steal for some fresh CS.
