Thread: New Counter Strike To GO In 2012

Valve announced Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS: GO).




Targeted for release via Playstation Network, Xbox Live Arcade, and Steam (for PC and Mac) in early 2012, CS: GO will expand upon the team-based action gameplay that it pioneered when it was launched exactly 12 years ago (CS beta 1, August 1999).
CS: GO features new maps, characters, and weapons and delivers updated versions of the classic CS content (de_dust, etc.). In addition, CS: GO will introduce new gameplay modes, matchmaking, leader boards, and more.
“Counter-Strike took the gaming industry by surprise when the unlikely MOD became the most played online PC action game in the world almost immediately after its release in August 1999,” said Doug Lombardi at Valve. “For the past 12 years, it has continued to be one of the most-played games in the world, headline competitive gaming tournaments and selling over 25 million units worldwide across the franchise. CS: GO promises to expand on CS' award-winning gameplay and deliver it to gamers on the PC as well as the next gen consoles and the Mac.”
CS: GO is being developed by Valve in cooperation with Seattle-based Hidden Path Entertainment. The title is targeted for release in early 2012 and will be playable at this year's PAX Prime and Eurogamer Expo 2011.

WOW, where is the source of this news dude? I'm really a big fan to cs and i didn't know it to the moment i read this.If this is the same like CS 1.6 and have just.. better graphic will be the great shooter EVER !!! To the moment the most played game in multiplayer is CS.

wooo really any screens if u can post .......
then it will be heaviier many players wouldnt be able to get it b/c of graphics

I play cs1.6 and its sweet, i pick 1.6> source. The problem is that i dont think anyone wants CS GO to end up like source, so hows it going to be different from it

yup 1.6 was way better than source . but source also gave us they mordern gaming type graphics and style (they tried their best)

i hope this one really brings the game back there is no game that fills in like this game does
