Counter-Strike:Source(PC) review

Today i'm gonna review on yet another FPS game developed and published by Valve Corporation,named Counter-Strike:Source(CS:S).

This game was released worldwide on October 7,2004.
It is a complete remake of the popular Counter-Strike.
It uses the Source Engine just like Team Fortress 2.

Just like the original Counter-Strike,this game pits a team of counter-terrorists against a team of terrorists in a series of round.

The main objective of both teams is to reach the round score limit before the opposing team.

Round score can be achieved through many ways.
Such as defusing a bomb, planting a bomb and preventing it from being defused by the other team, rescuing all the hostages on a map, preventing the hostages from being rescued, and defeat all the members of the opposing team.

When playing on a server without modification,players do not respawn once they are dead,till the next round.

The main improvement of CS:S from CS 1.6 is its more realistic and awesome graphics.
As compared in the following screenshots.

CS 1.6

You can see clearly the difference in the textures,guns and map structures.
Which i personally like it very much,as CS 1.6 turns me off with its shitty graphics.
