Well, IDK about you but I still place Counter Strike up there with BF(I've also placed it above CoD after WaW). And CS is still one of the most played games on steam.

I love the game and still play it all the time. Not just the regular de/cs maps though... I also play gg, surf, zm, ze, mg, zh, glass, and break game modes too. The shear amount of mods that are in CS:S keep me loving the game.

Counter Strike defined lan party for me back in the day. Along with Halo and Time Splitters.

I'll tell you what happened.....12 years later 50,000 people are playing it right NOW!

and another 45,000 are playing Counter Strike Source right NOW.

GREATNESS that's what happened to it!

Counter strike source still gets in the top 20 steam games all the time, its really in its own league.

4 or 5 players in a game is not players frantically dusting it off

Jin_Sakai213d ago

We all know that videogamer.com went to each and every Xbox 360 owners house to watch them frantically dust off their 360s.

I mean it is a 1000% growth in the player-base. /s

Enough to write an article though. N4g new owners are insulting us for click revenue

Vits213d ago

@mandf

Nothing to do with new owners. N4G has always been the trashcan for game news and discussion.

I love video games so much that I never have the time to replay the old one that I have finished, my backlog has only gotten bigger and bigger. I don't get how some people can play one game for years (except for mmorpg)

mandf213d ago

It's an exaggeration to the extreme. A way making an exclusive seen grander than it is.

Profchaos213d ago

Some people do I know someone who only ever plays dune 2000 which is rarely but still

RedDevils212d ago

Those Fifa or COD players do that every years.

Inverno213d ago

Wonder why they've never ported this game over to last Gen and now current Gen. This game would be pretty popular right now, I think.
