Valve announces Counter-Strike: Global Offensive is planned for release on August 21st for Windows, OS X, PlayStation Network, and Xbox LIVE Arcade at the same price of $15.00 across the board: Valve, creators of best-selling game franchises (such as Counter-Strike, Half-Life, Left 4 Dead, Portal, and Team Fortress) and leading technologies (such as Steam and Source), today announced Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS: GO) is targeted for release on August 21, 2012.
To be available via the Playstation Network, Xbox Live Arcade, and Steam (for PC and Mac), CS: GO will expand upon the team-based action gameplay pioneered when Counter-Strike was launched almost 13 years ago (CS beta 1, August 1999).
CS: GO will be sold for approximately $15 on all platforms.
CS: GO features new maps, characters, and weapons and delivers updated versions of the classic CS content (de_dust, etc.). In addition, CS: GO introduces new gameplay modes, matchmaking, leader boards, and more.
Developed by Valve in cooperation with Seattle-based Hidden Path Entertainment, the title will be playable in the Sony and Microsoft booths this week at E3 in Los Angeles, CA.

That's why it was met by a resounding "meh" from people like me who had already played thousands of hours of CS and were looking for something actually new.
How'd I miss this? I'm people like that! I think it's great and gets a "yay". I don't want something drastically different. Did you have similar complaints about the Quake series?
Thousands of hours of everything is up on YouTube so even if you're not in the beta it's no mystery. Do you like CS and want to play an updated version with new official game modes, many new weapons, new maps, new graphics, new aim/recoil/gunplay/netcode, a separation between competitive and casual, updated better bots, "ranks", stats, and new achievements? Sorry it's still CS. |
