Anyone still playing it?

Used to play Counter Strike and Team Fortress heaps on the good ol' 56k

Planning on playing again but lost my Half-life CD.

Noticed Counterstrike is now available to buy, but there is all so Counter Strike - Condition Zero

Which to buy?

Used to play CS and mainly Team fortress quite regularly, was in a online team etc. Gave up when i went to uni as i had no time to play anymore.
Stopped playing counterstrike when it got to version 1.1 onwards, the old beta versions were much more fun and servers were less full of idiots.

Also got bored of playing on 56k as its such a bloody disadvantage. Was considering going to a local LAN cafe for a game soon though, its been a while

So if i buy JUST Condition Zero I'll be fine?

Way I had it before, you had to install half-life then keep downloading the new CS add-ons.

Dont like CS too many people hacking /cheating, and graphics are abit tiresome.

if you want advice, do not buy the CS version, take some time to download it from www.counter-strike.net

reason: onthe retail ones the guns are called stupid names.. the downloadable one is all orrect (due to copyright)

in my opinion it spoils the game..


as for MP games. i like to play

Call of Duty
