This lol. I went back to source for a couple matches and I just couldn't stop getting headshots. I got so many headshots it seemed like I was hacking. CS GO may not be as good as 1.6, but it's definitely better than source.

Don't get me wrong, I have over 1000 hours of CS:S logged and it was my favourite game for the longest time ever, but the competitive match making in CS GO is just too awesome. I can't speak much about the pub experience in CS GO though, since I only play competitive.
I-It's not like I want to overclock you or anything... baka!

If BLR can do F2P, then so can CS.

I think you can get a hold of customer service and get it discounted.

No, we don't need another Combat Arms. Leave CS for the passionate and competitive players.

Free is different from free to play.

If people are still working on updating my favorite game from roughly 14 years ago then I will happily give them $10-15 for their time. I still remember lugging around my 15in bubble crt and 45lb tower to lan parties, blowing out the power in a library because we had to many surge protectors plugged into eachother haha good times. I'll never leave this game and find CS GO as a great addition. Anytime I want a quick fix of stress relief I crank up the bass and join a dogz gaming server for some deathmatch goodness.
