Continue reading to get "Learned" on this awful company and this Great Elite video game.

I've already written at length about some old school unc Counter Strike history in my 1.6 review. But there are a few vital points that need to be known.

First off, why did Valve replace CSGO with CS2 instead of making a new game? It was because they were unsure if they could successfully migrate CS:GO inventories to a brand new CS2 appID. This confirms what we all suspected all along, that skin collectors, gamblers, and bot farmers dictate Valve policy more than the actual players.

They also did this because they had worked so hard on their beloved Source 2 engine for so many years and they just HAD to make people use it! If people genuinely had a choice between the veteran, battle-hardened CS:GO and the half-baked rotten launch day CS2, nobody would play CS2. Because it's a buggy broken down mess of a video game. It was like this Day 1 and it remains this way.

I encourage you to boot up this old CS:GO game and join a low-latency community server. Observe how when you shoot someone, the bullets hit them and they take damage. Observe how when you slip behind a wall for cover, the bullet coming at you doesn't take a sharp right turn and doesn't headshot you. Years ago, if your FPS game didn't follow these rules, it plainly sucked. It was once like this, believe it or not! Games just worked, and if they didn't, everyone stopped playing them after maybe a year. Nowadays the 1.5 million "People" that play CS2, I guess they just deal with these nagging, central issues (among the host of other buggy things that happen).

Why do people just live with these issues? It's because the modern day man is a brainless, thoughtless dolt that doesn't know how to make real decisions for himself. Most of the people that "Play" CS2 are in it for the skin economy. This is why cases that were once commonplace (You couldn't get rid of them for 5 cents!) are now 20 dollars and up. Skins that were utterly worthless now trade hands for a Big Mac. And Valve sits back and laughs, because it makes them loads of money. And they don't bother fixing the awful issues in CS2 because they are still making loads of money. No matter how loud the chorus of people becomes that say "fix the game!!11!" it doesn't matter. Valve has the skin market down-pat, so the gameplay comes in second place.

It is worth noting that this old CS:GO game (which is unlisted, many features are broken, and has zero official servers) appears to be getting a consistent 65,000 people a day. 65K people boot up this game to play on COMMUNITY SERVERS, when the game is unlisted! It is hard to say how many real people are actually playing CS2 everyday. SteamDB puts the tally at 1.5 million, but the large majority of this are bots. Thus is it impossible to have an accurate count. I'm going to be generous and put the guess at 1 million. Think about it for just a little bit. 65 thousand is a huge amount for an unlisted, buggy game without official servers. Imagine if Valve made a huge announcement for it, relisted it, booted up official servers, and allowed inventory migration. It would simply be bananas.

At this juncture, it is possible for Valve to re-add official servers. It is the most probable it's ever been. But it is still very unlikely. Would Volvo truly admit defeat, finally admit that their prized CS2 actually sucks ass through a straw? I think not, but I also didn't think they would make an independent CS:GO ever again.

I will also take this opportunity to condemn the reviewers that get so hyper emotional and edgelordish. The people that are like "it is like seeing your long lost love emerge from the japanese cherry blossom forest, and even though you only catch a glimpse of her you know exactly who it is." That is very gay and nobody should write that on anything. This is a video game, people. I know most of you are the type to have lowercase 6 letter names and a black and white anime profile picture (something like "despair" as your name), but never ever EVER EVER write that on a public forum.

Amendment: I can't believe I forgot to include this in my original review! CS2 looks like crap, and because it is horribly optimized, it also RUNS like crap! The artstyle Valve went with for CS2 is one of the most awful changes in video game history. It represents a move away from good, simple design to the hyper "realism" that plagues modern games. It requires a supercomputer to run without issues, and for what? Better ray-tracing and shaders? (whatever the hell any of that even means). The maps are also horribly optimized. They have loads of tiny little insignificant prop details, and even on the lowest settings your CPU will be howling because allegedly CS2 runs more from your CPU than your GPU.

Compare this to CS:GO. It has an awesome, darker artstyle that suits the game much better. The environment is good-looking and doesn't fatigue your eyes. On top of that, it comes from an era in gaming where games were simpler but better-designed. This means that even on an Apple II computer, the game runs smooth as butter.

Also, the name. Global Offensive is such a cool fitting name. Counter Strike 2 is just stupid. It's not the second installment of the series (that honor would go to the greatly underrated Condition Zero). In fact, it's not the third installment, or even the FOURTH installment. It should be called Counter Strike 5. Maybe call it CS:GO 2? Or it wouldn't work because it replaced CS:GO. How about just leave CS:GO untouched! Maybe they should've just done that!

Zombies. What an interesting subject. Just think about it. Zombies. These things that they get a virus and the virus infects them turning them into things which have a really big wanting of to bite the people that are unifected with the virus which turned them into biting things and when they bite the people uninfected they turn them infection which gives them the virus turning them into a thing and so on and so on but due to the nature of people and stuff they have guns i mean the people without the virus have guns and these people use the guns to kill the zombies which are the things that have the virus and bite people and its really quite rare to see survivors like this i call them survivors because they dont have the virus because people can get infected without even having gotten bitten through aerial transmission or fluid transmission or many of the things mentioned in plague inc they have a zombie mode in that game too but the only way for a person to be a survivor without the virus is to be naturally immune to the zombie virus and not getting bitten for their whole life which means theres only a handful this handful including bill zoey francis louis rochelle coach ellis and nick these guys are the survivors you can play as and they are really rough and tough dudes with guns and stuff and they kill the zombies which sounds really easy but theres these crazy mutations which turn some zombies into very specially infected zombies which are called in the game special infected these include many zombies and they include the boomer hunter smoker jockey spitter charger tank and witch the witch being the only unplayable special infected zombie and the other ones have their own special abilities which when combined can really deal death blows to these survivors that i mentioned before making things hard for them harder than you might initially think and the goal is to get to the end of the level and get rescued but not relly because the story cotinues on and on and on until you reach the very end of the game which is the final mission you get rescued and you win and thats the end but thats only the tip of the iceberg with this here game theres many different gamemodes such as scavange and versus where you can play as the infected how cool is that well anyways this game is really cool and awesome many would say an improvement over the first installment Left 4 dead but in terms of the levels featured in that first game i honestly preferred the gameplay in the first game for that but since this game has double the levels and double the everything its honestly very good and you cant go wrong its a classic made by valve years ago but as you know old is gold they say and you can get this game really cheap in the valve complete collection which when as goes on sale becomse super duper cheap pennies on the dollar etc etc this game is great and you will not regret it at all its very fun and every second is filled with greatness and awesomeness tons and tons and tons of memorable experiences very moddable and great left 4 dead 2.

When Valve made the fatal decision to replace CS:GO with CS2, it exposed a years-long movement away from making great games for the players. You see, Valve had been working on this Source 2 engine for years. And now that they finally "Finished" it, they needed a game to test it out on, to see if the playerbase would react positively. For this they chose the age-old classic CS:GO. To Valve, CS:GO had proven itself to be a hardy and everlasting popular game. It would make a great candidate, they thought. But for some horrendous reason they chose to REPLACE CS:GO with CS2, rendering online play in the former completely impossible.

But why would they do this? This decision stems back to around a year before CS2 came into existence. It goes back to a terrible company called Blizzard. They had this game called Overwatch which was a tremendous success. In 2022 they put out Overwatch 2, which would REPLACE the first Overwatch. To my knowledge this is the first major game to have this done to it. Overwatch 2 was also one of the first games, to my knowledge, put out by a major studio to have initial Overwhelmingly Negative reviews on Steam. But even with this backlash, people couldn't put their money where their mouth was and still continued on playing Overwatch 2. It's like Call of Duty syndrome. People complain year-in and year-out that each new Call of Duty is basically the same game (which it is). Yet they gladly plunk down 7 Hamiltons a year to play it, 14 if they play on Xbox.

The following year, 2023, Valve knew the time was right and followed in Blizzard's footsteps. They made the decision to replace CS:GO with CS2. First off we need to establish why Valve saw it necessary to update the game to Source 2 in general. They did this because A: they had already been working on Source 2 for years and B: they wanted to pump new life into CS:GO. Hopefully they won't do this with TF2 because that game has nothing wrong with it in terms of the engine it runs on. Anyways, that's the reason they moved it to Source 2. But why replace the game??

The reason they replaced it stems from the Item Economy that CS:GO had. That's right. Valve once and for all dispelled all rumours to the contrary. They place the item collectors and the skin hunters over the actual players of the game. They had to replace the game due to the difficulty and uncertainty of appID inventory migration. Would our great community of skin hunters and gamblers appreciate having their items stuck in an old installment of the series, or worse, deleted due to a potential unforeseen migration bug??? Of course not, so we must replace the game.

All of the people, like me, that enjoyed the old CS:GO system of gameplay are now forever condemned to offline or community servers. Me, I haven't booted up CS2 ever. And I won't because I despise what Valve did to their greatest game. All to keep the cash cow running.

So I vow never to play the game again and move on. But hundreds of hours of CS:GO sort of gives you this itch that needs to be scratched every so often. At first I can ignore it but eventually I have a deep desire to play CS:GO. But I can't! So next I try the ways of the old school. I give CS:S another shot and, as evidenced in my review for that game, it still stands up as a masterpiece of FPS games. Best part too is that you can still play it!

And then I try the original Counter-Strike, the game which this review is for. And lo and behold it too stands up as a masterpiece of the FPS genre, only this game has infinitely more classic appeal than even CS:S. Counter-Strike somehow knows exactly when and where to reward you for your efforts, and it makes you want to play more even when you're getting owned. Each time you die, you think you know exactly how to win next time and you want to try again. Even if you get owned again, you still think this until one day you figure out how and you become Skilled.

This game comes from a bygone era in software and video game development. By todays "Standards" this game would be blasted. Graphics aren't good enough! No skin customization! No ranking system! This simplicity is what I absolutely love about this game. Back in the 90's, when this game was being created as a mod offshoot of Half-Life, this kind of thing absolutely blew people away. How the hell could a computer do this? - people would think. And to think it was made and conceived by such a small group of people. To captivate the genius minds of the gaming public today, at least a medium-sized gaming studio is required, with some rare exceptions. And to captivate the majority of gamers, a Triple A studio is needed. Back when Counter-Strike came out, a few college students could make a game that ruled the Internet.

This kind of thing simply does not happen anymore. Innovation in gaming is dead. Now we have companies focusing on hyper-realism and replacing amazing video games with subpar imitations, all to keep a skin economy running. There will be no more Dooms or Counter-Strikes anymore. By this I mean games that revolutionize genres. It simply won't happen. The almighty Dollar has taken over the world of video game development and companies realize it is more profitable to make stupid loot boxes than it is to make a great game. This is because the average gamer has the brain of a chimpanzee, and will drool at fancy golden guns and rare Legendary outfits, and will stop at nothing to get them, even wasting away their savings opening random loot boxes. It disgusts me and it should disgust you.

This is why I will heap as much praise as I can onto a game like Counter-Strike. There are no loot boxes. There are no skins, no item economy. There is nothing in this game that makes Valve money with the sole exception of you buying it. And this means that Valve isn't going to tamper with the game and ruin it for eternity, so you get to enjoy the game until the very last community server shuts down. And that is exactly what I plan to do, because Counter-Strike is a relic of a game.

Amendment: Today, against my best judgment, I tried Counter-Strike 2, playing a competitive game of Nuke. And yes, it is every bit as bad as I said it would be.

2nd Amendment: I have played more Counter-Strike 2, and while it is not a bad FPS game, it still remains a subpar imitation of CS:GO. If you're like me and you remember the game the way it was years ago, you will be disappointed. Maybe not enough to put the game down but disappointed nonetheless. The points outlined in this review still stand 100% true.

It is IMPERATIVE that you play this game, because you only have 7 days left to live!! That's right, onthe 7th day you will die, just like Revelations. And depending on if you were liberal or republican you will go to HELL or be graced into Heaven!! And you can't cheat the system by last-second "Claiming" to be Republican, no no no. Voting records will be pulled up. If you voted anyone except Trump or Gary Johnson you will be denied and sent to the firey pits of Abortion, Liberal, Transgenderism, Wokey, DEI HELL!!!!!!!!

If this isn't enough to convince you to play this game then here's what will. It is the ultimate in 3D zombie survival video games. Spawn into the forest and scavenge for supplies, and killing zombies. Find or create your own base! You can pretend the zombies are mindless liberals walking through the desolate, mangled streets of Chicago or New York. And you can use your 2nd -Amendment Guaranteed Rifle to BLAST their stupid lefist heads off! And horde night (the 7th day), well that night is Election Day in a BLUE COUNTY!!!!! They are rushing to vote for their Satanic Leader, and YOU MUST STOP THEM!!! If you die, they succeed, and finally vote in the Antichrist to office. He will enact legislation, like no more guns, Everyone must get an abortion. Everyone must transgender. You have to put an end to this, you see!!

And then the zombies start getting Radioactive, sort of like if you were to imagine some dragons. This is comes from the amount of Vegan "Food" they ingest. All of the Impossible, Cant Believe Its Not Beef "food" they concoct in a lab, putting endless amounts of aborted baby skin into their beakers, boiling until they have just the right Level of the Devil, and finally mixing in the mangled up body parts of Beautiful Patriots they ruthlessly slaughtered. This vegan "food" makes the zombies turn Green and very powerful, for the Adrenochrome makes them this way. Their one mission is to elect Satan into office, and only you can stop them.

Like the movie Dawn of the Dead said, when no more room in hell, the dead will walk the earth. I will revise this though. When theres no more room in the Abortion Clinic, the woke libtards will walk the voting booth.

Now do you see?? You must play this game, and fast. Throw everything else out of your life like I did. Your parents, your responsibility, your personal hygiene, your family, your house's cleanliness, your job, everything. I did this so I could play this great video game. Why wouldn't I, I'm not going to be alive on the 8th day. For this is 7 days to die, and 8 comes after 7, meaning you will be dead by then.

I'm writing this review in the wee hours, early in the morning. So early in the morning it is indistinguishable from the night time it followed.

I want to bring you back, harken if you will, to the days of the Classics. Back in the day, things were just so much more classic. Just think about the days of Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Neil Young, Black Sabbath, AC/DC, The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, Styx, Dire Straits, Fleetwood Mac, The Who, Bad Company, Free, Midnight Oil, Pink Floyd, Aerosmith, Guns And Roses, and so many classic bands. Classics like that dominated every aspect of life.

This game is just like that. It is the Led Zeppelin of video games. I don't think you can get much more classic than Team Fortress Classic. The only other contender for most classic video game is Deathmatch Classic, but that classic game is so classic it deserves an entirely separate review.

An all-time classic.

I'm on a review spree, call me an author.
Probably the best puzzle game ever created. Hitting those pegs feels so good. Now here's my ode to Jimmy Rockets the best video game character ever. (Lightning).
Jimmy is just so cool. From his hard hat to his amazing ability (I forget what it is) he is unmatched. And he is just so cool. He rides around on his little skateboard,, I need a figurine of Jimmy to sit on my desk. And put him on a Tech Deck miniature skateboard, THAT would be awesome. That dude could probably impossible flip UPSIDE DOWN over a half pipe and through a tunnel, then coffin and Hippie Jump beneath a tree and underneath the Big Apple do a 6 times kickflip, blindfolded and with his arms tied around his back, with clothes pins snapped to his ears. He could probably do all that consistently every time. That's the level of cool I'm talking about with Jiminy Lightning. Not to mention his amazing personality. When he talks to me he always encourages me saying things like "Nice Shot". Hes the only character that cheers you on when you get a long shot. That should tell you everything about good old Jimmy. Man I could go on about Jimmy, but I would need to write a 250 000 page book. in small font. All in all great.

Now American Truck Simulator was the real deal, in fact it's just like real trucking. But this is SISSY trucking. This is training wheels on a bycicle in truck form. Everything is so easy in Gay Europe that I wonder if the people get bored there. You find yourself masturbating WHILE trucking and you still nail the delivery every time. It's so easy. And everything is just so liberal in Europe. Gay Europe I call it. Every time I boot this game up I yearn to go back to the real world of America, long dusty highways and true conservative values. Europe better be thankful that Trump cuts this great peace deal with Russia and Europe doesn't get nuked so they can still be gay.

So let's set the stage. The year is 2025 and you are looking for the perfect terrorism based first person shooter. You read on some gay website that Counter Strike 2 (Formerly Global O) is the best. So you download it and boot it up. You are all fired up for the game. So you join a lobby in Casual and its alright. You level up and become Competitive and are instantly struck by just how awful the game actually is. Just loads and loads of genuinely terrible people on both sides of the aisle. This is something you wouldn't want Hitler to play (because he doesn't know how to operate a computer him living in the 40s and all). So you go to the next best option (actually the real best option) called Counter Strike Source. In my house we call it Old Reliable. The first thing you notice is the lack of child pornography addicts in each lobby. The second thing you notice is the non-bloated UI. The third is the amazing gameplay. Easily the best gamemode is the 24/7 DeatMatch gamemode. Best played on A W P Clan Servers. This is the real deal, cream of the crop, Top of the Heap. This is heaven. This is everything CSGO wishes it could be. They say the greatest lie the devil ever pulled was convincing people that CSGO was good. So here is the Cheers to Counter Strike Source, the best installment of the series. Hopefully in the next 4 years Trump institutes a permenant irrevocable ban on Counter Strike 2. This would be amazing.

Imagine a single dart monkey with no upgrades at wave 80 on Hard mode. That is pretty much the state of the US - Mexico border right now.

This ain't no simulator this is real trucking.
