I'm loving it so far as well. Feel free to add me for some games.

Anyone else have the game freeze on them?

Does this title have Steamworks integration ala Portal 2 on the PS3?

Yes it does and it's a nice touch-though I'm not exactly sure what the direct benefit is. Anyone care to clarify?

i've been waiting for this game for a long time. i'm not fortunate enough to have a pc that can handle games, so i'm glad i finally have a console version of this to play.

i'm really having fun with it. controls are kind of awkward, but you get used to them. having only played casual, i have to agree that not having team chat sucks. also, at least on psn, there are many matches where the complete enemy team is bots. that sucks when that happens. all in all, it's a really addictive game, that is actually challeneging. i really hope it becomes popular outside of the pc/steam realm.

speaking of which, is there cross-play or is that a rumor. i'm assuming there would be as the online is powered by steam.

Cross play between the ps3 and pc was announced and then cancelled. The explanation given was the difficulty this would present with patching, where pc players would have to wait for all patches to go thru sonys certification process, so they could launch in tandem. Honestly though, you dont want to get worked by guys whove been playing CS for years on pc.

And the Steamworks integration is more a novelty at this time, allowing youto access your Steam account and friend list from in game. However, this integration bodes well for futur downloadable content being made available for ps3. People still have hope that mods may be supported in some capacity someday.

Recoil is non-existent on console version, so I don't see how cross play could have worked out. People playing completely different games, really.

Wouldn't be fair for console gamers either since M&K is far quicker and accurate then the controller.

You can play with mouse and keyboard on either platform.

Tried hooking up my Mech & Deathadder and it isn't the same. You need software to make them work.

I've read in plenty of places where people have gotten their mouse and keyboard setup to work very well with the console version. Perhaps you should adjust the sensitivity settings. You know, much like you would do to get them feeling "right" on a PC.

Playing this on the 360 and went 15/4 with 39 points in my first match, headphones help A LOT on where to anticipate enemies.

I wanna play! But money is tight. Damnit!

I hear there's input delay, though. Can anyone who's played comment on that?

I added the walk on a toggle with the R3 which helps cut down on the noise as you try to sneak around a corner. Playing this game with headphones makes a huge difference.
