The legendary online FPS Counter-Strike is to receive a Souce-engine makeover and re-released this summer, Valve boss Gabe Newell revealed at E3 this morning.
Following the latest showing of numerous gameplay demos of Half-Life 2 (which will be available for download via Eurogamer later today), Newell surprised the 20-strong audience by showing off the Aztec level of Counter-Strike running in Source.
When quizzed, he said that the game would not be a free update, but would in fact be released commercially via retail and for download via Steam at the same time as Half-Life 2, at the end of this summer.

not just anyone, a person with 5 posts.
not all low posters are no-brained n00bs you see
[EDIT:] ill be sticking with HL1 NS for my MP
but at least we get HL1 singleplayer on the hl2 engine
<edit>Yeah, it doesn't say in there that CS will be Half-Life's pakaged multiplayer at least, and really, there's nothing wrong with re-vamping CS1 and releasing it for half-life 2, source/havok engine CS would be damn fun IMO, imagine shooting down the bridge in aztec/etc. o.O!</edit>
Ah, I see, that link isn't working for me at the moment though, so I'll try later, plus I'm on a school Computer, so it might not work so well, heh. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Just download the video from Eurogamer's file section.
I've just watched the thing by the way. Bloody hell, get it downloaded. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->
How can you say such a thing?!
Too fast and... er... unrealistic for realism...
Too slow and camper-filled for arcade...
No.
One side or the other, this game is beat.
Best Realistic FPS: Rainbow Six 3
Best Arcade FPS (as much as I hate to admit it): UT2K4
BTW it's about time for CS to ROLL OVER AND DIE! The stupidity of the masses is pollution on the internet.
Narfwak, it's already been confirmed that CS: Source (as it seems to be known) is stand-alone. You won't get it with Half-Life 2.
As to the footage of HL2, each time i see a new video it rekindles my faith that it will be a great game.
Honestly, how could valve <b>not</b> make a new CS? It's almost guaranteed to sell millions upon millions of copies. Besides, I don't mind CS all that much. It's plenty of fun for LAN games with some buddies; additionally, just about everyone that owns a gaming PC has played it, so it's never hard to find people to play with.

Me too. I like CS, and I'll like it a hell of a lot more with physics, aural treats and eye-candy.
who cares, NS2 will destroy all of these. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Bloody hell, is selective reading going on here? As mentioned many times, CS is separate from HL2. You can bet your bottom dollar that HL2 will have DM, and probably much more. You have to pay for the new CS; It's going retail by itself.
i use <a href='http://www.videolan.org/vlc/' target='_blank'>vlc</a> for watching movies... it's nice <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Yeah people, chill. It's not like CS is the only choice that's going to come packaged, since you have to in fact buy it seperate. Don't worry, you'll still get whatever ValvE decides to make as the normal HL multiplayer.
avi?
avi? <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd-->
