Not too bad in my opinion. :D

Don't feel bad if you missed this. I got it for $49.99 and think it's the worst piece of online console garbage on Live. Let's put it this way. I liked Soldier of Fortune II more online than Counterstrike.

Morpheus

For anyone who bought anything you could've added a cheap used game ($1) and used the code PPLAY15. That gives you free shipping. You would've saved money and gotten an extra game. That was for all of the :newbie: s. :)

peteyrose
06-09-2004, 07:12 PM
Yeah, CS is trash. Single player is terrible with no offline multiplayer, and Live is swarming with 8 year olds. I wouldn't have bought it even for $10.

Might as well get the PC version which is free. Sure, you can say people hack on the PC, but people cheat on the Xbox as well.

Try to add 999 to your cart, however many it adds are how many are left.

My invoice
Counterstrike (Xbox) 9.99
PGA Tour Golf '96 (preowned) .99
FREE Eb Super Saver shipping (-1.99)
Tax. 89

Total: 11.87

Yee ha =D

Now if I could just randomly click on Wario World at the right time...

Yes, NCAA is back at 9.99.

If you include a used game in your order, you can use code SAVER to get your order shipped free. Combine with PPLAY15 to get 15% off your used game(s).

Darn, looks like my rookie mistake might cost me.
I placed my order for Counter-Strike about 30 minutes ago. I then saw this thread and placed another order using the SAVER and PPLAY15 codes. I tried to cancel the first one, but it gave me an error and said that it couldn't. I called the 800 number, but they told me that it takes about an hour from the order time before it gets to their system. I'll try calling back, but my guess is that my first order can get cancelled, but my second order might not have Counter-Strike if they sold out.

yes there is, its the same reason people would play the original doom or serious sam. The simple joy of shooting something to death :)

BTW the single player isn't horrible, it's just nearly nonexistent :P

jrutz
06-10-2004, 02:23 PM
I bought it at retail for the purpose of going online, but with the sheer amount of games in my backlog I haven't gotten the chance. However, I did play single-player offline just to get used to the controls and it is surprisingly fun, much like online without the chat/voice. The bots react pretty well, and you kind of forget you aren't playing against real people.

accounts are still going for around $40-50 on ebay still, so i'm offering a pretty good deal.

Edge
06-10-2004, 04:09 PM
Is the Xbox version of CS any better than the PC version in any way (besides graphics)? I thought I heard it did something special with the analog triggers, or something like that? I really kinda hate the way that the PC version seems to rely entirely on "point-and-click" aiming ability, I'd almost rather play the game where everyone is using a control pad simply because it seems like on the PC version the best aimer automatically wins (which wouldn't be as much of an issue with control pads ;) ).

Is there a single-player mode at all on this game? I mainly got it for trade fodder anyway, but figured I'd give it a go first to see how it is. I don't really play many online games tho, so if that's all it is I have zero interest. :)
