Related: HLGaming Counter-Strike: Source Review
This was played on my computer at my house. Not at a cyber Cafe. Just to get that straight.
Game play has not changed at all; it is still a run and gun reflex game. Be warned, if you do not currently like counter strike, you most likely will not like Counter Strike: Source, however it may be worthwhile to at least give it a try. The objectives are the same, terrorists are the bad guys who want to blow up a bunch of crates, and the Counter-Terrorists are the good guys who need to prevent the terrorists from achieving their objective. Since I was playing on the terrorist side, I decided that I would go do the terrorist thing and go blow something up with my c4 plastic explosive. Once I made my way to the bomb site, I planted my bomb on the floor and began to arm it. The first thing I noticed while I was arming the bomb was that your character types a pass code to arm to bomb which was a nice effect. After arming the bomb, I went to what I believed was a safe distance away so I could observe what the explosion would look like. However, as you will see in the video, I was not far enough, and I took some damage when a barrel came flying at me, which in itself is a very cool effect and gives the game a more realistic feel.
