Counter-Strike: Global Offensive info, screens arrive

4.7
A number of bits and bobs from Valve’s Counter-Strike: Global Offensive have been revealed.

First off, don’t expect a brand new game with everything new. The included seven maps — five for Bomb/Defuse, two for Hostage Rescue — are all based on existing ones from Counter-Strike 1.6 and Counter-Strike: Source.

Like with Portal 2, PS3, PC and Mac players will be able to play together, with PS3 users able to even the odds by using a mouse and keyboard to play. DualShock and PS Move are also supported.

Furthermore, Valve will be hosting its own servers for all versions. Players are able to host their own as well, though only Valve’s will do matchmaking based on skill.

The first few shots from the game are out as well. Jump to the gallery here to have a look. And the debut in-game trailer’s below:

I'm glad us xbox players wont be able to play with the pc/ps3 shit heads. We are too badass for that. They probably spamed Valve's email and forum posting PLEASE DONT PUT US WITH THE XBOX PLAYERS, WE ARE ******!!! and we dont need keyboards and mice because we are already skilled with joysticks, just like when VIDEO GAMES WERE INVENTED! WE are the original gamers, so F off nubs.


kthx

Counter-strike GO already looks way better than CSS! and i hope it is because CSS got boring after like 3 years! Cool its on consoles but it will always be boss on PC.

Its pretty neat to see a popular game franchise come back after so long.
