IGN: Counter-Strike: Evolution of Dust 2

IGN: With no regenerating health, no sprint button and the possibility of instant death waiting around every corner, Counter-Strike is not an easy game to learn. Once you do figure out how everything works -- the map layouts, the firing patterns of the weapons, the slight movement delay after jumping -- Counter-Strike can be an extremely satisfying experience. Success is based almost entirely on your personal skill instead of luck.

One of my most anticipated titles. With all the nub trash FPS released lately I am really excited for this. I know a lot of other people are too.

ScytheX35201d ago

yep, cs is really the only competive game around so far, any game where you take hits hide behind a box or wall and recover hp is trash in terms of competitiveness aswell as random spawning in random areas of the map -_- fun as a mod but for competetive play no thanks.

clrlite5199d ago

Yeah, I agree. It's one of a handful of commonly played games that are hardcore enough to be an adrenaline rush. Really looking forward to this game's release. First on PC then I will probably pick up the PS3 version.

ScytheX35199d ago

yep im definitely picking up the pc version wont be geting the console release though since itll be cross platform play, pc vs mac vs ps3, xbox's strict network rules didnt allow cross play pretty much

CrazyRap5201d ago

Can't wait to play this on my ps3.

4 or 5 players in a game is not players frantically dusting it off

Jin_Sakai955d ago

We all know that videogamer.com went to each and every Xbox 360 owners house to watch them frantically dust off their 360s.

Vits955d ago

I mean it is a 1000% growth in the player-base. /s

mandf955d ago

Enough to write an article though. N4g new owners are insulting us for click revenue

Vits955d ago

@mandf

Nothing to do with new owners. N4G has always been the trashcan for game news and discussion.

northpaws955d ago

I love video games so much that I never have the time to replay the old one that I have finished, my backlog has only gotten bigger and bigger. I don't get how some people can play one game for years (except for mmorpg)

mandf955d ago

It's an exaggeration to the extreme. A way making an exclusive seen grander than it is.

Profchaos955d ago

Some people do I know someone who only ever plays dune 2000 which is rarely but still

RedDevils955d ago

Those Fifa or COD players do that every years.

Inverno955d ago

Wonder why they've never ported this game over to last Gen and now current Gen. This game would be pretty popular right now, I think.

Players Spent Over $100 Million On CS:GO Cases Last Month, A New Record

About 39.5 million loot boxes were opened throughout March 2023, right after Valve announced Counter-Strike 2. It goes without saying that gamers love gambling, especially those who play Counter-Strike: Global Offensive.

I have about 260 hours on csgo and have not spent a single penny on any of the microtransactions. You can still enjoy it since it's not pay to win.

‘Counter-Strike 2’ Release Date Nears As Devs Test Source 2

The rumours are heating up and it looks like Counter-Strike 2, the move onto the Source 2 engine for CS:GO, is coming very soon based on testing files found on Steam.

ZycoFox1154d ago

S&box devs already have access to Source 2 and have done for a while.

DOTA 2 was Source 2 but hardly anyone noticed/cared because it wasn't one of the Valve games most wanted. L4D3 was scrapped because Source 2 wasn't ready and buggy.

Half Life Alyx has been the only official Source 2 game that people notice so far.. The engine still looks pretty good graphically, but it looked far more impressive back in 2014 when the leaked plantation level that was rebuilt on Source 2 (for L4D2) was shown. Too bad it took this long for Valve to do anything with the engine.. with all the money they have I have to wonder what happened. Even a smaller dev studio could've produced stuff within a couple of years.

Richhard11152d ago

Not sure why this hyped tbh, it’s only in updated engine. Same maps, same game. So long as it’s top of steam listings, it’ll be here for evermore.
