Counter Strike is propably one of the most successful games. It was the most played game in 2008 according to GameSpy and as of August 2011, the Counter-Strike franchise has sold over 25 million units. Counter-Strike is a legend for FPS players and I'm sure that they will be happy to hear that a new version is coming out in 2012.
As you know Counter-Strike is a First Person Shooter game that players join either the terrorist team, counter-terrorist team or a spectator. There are two types of game modes. Planting bombs or securing hostiles. In the first mode terrorist team aims at planting a bomb to one of the bomb sides while opposing team is trying to stop them. The second mode is about defending, The terrorist team defends the place while c-terrorists are securing the hostiles. In short, it is a very classic game between the good and bad men. There is no scenario in the game because there is no campaign mode in the game so it is designed for multiplayer game only and I believe that it is one of the reasons Counter-Strike is successful. Multiplaying become popular after this game and all FPS games were doing multiplayer mode in the company of campaign mode. "Call of Duty" by Activision or "Battlefield" by EA Games are examples for that.
Finally I am sure that CS players are all happy about this new because the new version is coming after a long break. They are forced to play Modern Warfare and Bad Company but now the suffering is over!
