i've auctaly played CZ, and no I didn't like it, it was just a scam by Valve to make more money off CS, like CS XBOX (which i have played too) i am really surprised you like it, but I guess every game has some people who like it, even Daikatana
I would consider purchasing CS:CZ (I know, it's unrelated) to beta test DoD: Source, but CS: Source? I don't know. That just doesn't sound like a whole lot has changed other than looks (I know, there's people who argue otherwise, but face it, I really don't think there will be burning down houses in CS: Source. If there is, I doubt it'll be to the extent that you're mentioning.).

<!--QuoteBegin--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->The release of CS:Source is basically the Source engine plus CS game code plus the content to play one map (probably de_dust).
The reason we are doing this is primarily to find out what problems there are with the Source engine when we give it to a couple of hundred thousand people.
We're doing this before we RC Half-Life 2 to give us time to fix any issues that surface (e.g. "on this graphics card with this version of this BIOS and this video adapter the game won't run in widescreen modes").
We also get information back from the engine when it crashes, which is also very useful in evaluating how close we are to being done (one crash per play year - good! One crash per play hour - bad!).
So don't think of this as a CS:Source beta as much as it is a Source engine configuration and compatibility test.
CS:Source is in great shape, and I don't see it impacting the RC date. It is the plan to include it in the regular and collectors edition boxes.
