To begin, here is an introduction the the game.
Counter-Strike (CS) originated as a PC mod for the game Half-Life by Valve. The mod became very popular, Valve started helping the modders, lots of different game types were added, Valve started selling Counter-Strike as its own game, and now its out for consoles as well.

CS:GO has 4 game modes:

Classic Casual
Classic Competitive
Arms Race
Demolition

Game Descriptions!

Classic Casual and Competitive
This game type is what was played in the original CS, hence the term classic. There are versions of this game type called Bomb Defusal and Hostage Rescue. In both versions you can win the round by either killing all of the other team or completing the objective. For Bomb Defusal, the Terrorists can win by planting the bomb and then protecting it till it explodes, and the CTs win by defusing the bomb. The game can also be won by killing every member of the opposite team. You are awarded money for killing enemies, completing objectives and winning rounds.
You can use this money to purchase guns, gear and grenades etc. at the beginning of rounds.

Bomb Defusal:


Hostage Rescue:


* Thanks to Darkmaster2011 and RebenDigita1 for videos. *


Arms Race
This game is perfect for beginners. It's all about kills. It's very similar to "Gun Game" from Call of Duty: Black Ops. It is first to 27 kills. Infinite lives. Every time you get a kill, your gun upgrades. You must get a kill with every gun, finishing off with a kill with the 'Golden Knife.'

The only problem with this game type is that it can be laggy if it is a full lobby.

This game type is played on two maps only; Baggage and Shoots.



*Thanks to "L0ckL34r" for the video! *


Demoltion
This game type is just like on CoD, but when you die, you are out for that round. The interesting part of this game is that if you get a kill during a round, your gun is downgraded. You start with an assault rifle, then get downgraded to a P90, and so on down to a basic pistol. If you score two kills in a round you get the downgraded weapon plus a grenade.
This is a fun twist on the traditional game of demolition on other games.



* Thanks to "infinitesadd" for the video! *


Guns!

I have split the guns up into; Rifles, SMGs, LMGs, Shotguns, Pistols.
*Note: These spoils are HUGE! ;) *

Rifles!
Galil AR

Terrorist Only

The Galil is the cheapest rifle at $2000. You should just about be able to buy one of these any round. If you can afford either the AK-47 or the SG 553, go with one of those as they are usually more deadly. The Galil AR can be a good choice if you just lost the starting round and cant afford anything but it or the pistols.

FAMAS

Counter-Terrorist Only

The FAMAS is similar to the Galil, it is a fine weapon if you cant afford something better, and you should be able to buy it almost any round. Pick the M4A4 or the AUG if you can afford it.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

SSG 08

Terrorist or Counter-Terrorist

This sniper rifle is entry-level, but it does the job. This weapon is best for long range situations like on Aztec, but is less effective on close range maps. This isnt a bad choice when you cant afford the more expensive weapons. This sniper can be a good option if you want to try out sniping for a round but dont want to invest almost $5000 into a gun.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

AK-47

Terrorist Only

This gun is slightly more than the Galil AR but is worth buying instead. It is a staple gun for the terrorists. Make sure to pulse fire this gun due to the high recoil. Do not fire several bullets or hold down the trigger since your accuracy plummets super fast. This gun is good at medium to long range.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]


M4A4

Counter-Terrorist Only

This gun is similar in power level to the AK-47 and is the staple CT gun. It has less recoil than the AK-47 but isnt quite as powerful. This gun is always a solid choice and is worth the extra money compared to the FAMAS.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

AUG

Counter-Terrorist Only

The main improvement of the AUG weapon compared to the M4A4 is the scope, as the stats are virtually identical. Use this weapon if you need the scope to get headshots in maps with longer range encounters.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

SG 553

Terrorist Only

The SG 553 performs similar to the AUG for the CTs and is a solid choice when you need a scope and less recoil. However you may not be able to buy one every round since it comes in at $3500.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

AWP

Terrorist or Counter-Terrorist

Now this is a sniper rifle. This gun comes with a hefty price, but you should almost always get instant kills when hitting your target. The low fire rate makes taking out several enemies at once tough. Typically the SCAR-20 or G3SG1 are better options at slightly higher prices.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

SCAR-20

Counter-Terrorist Only

For only slightly more cash than the AWP, you can get the SCAR-20, which has an excellent fire rate with slightly less power. This gun is much more forgiving and is the sniper of choice if you plan on using it for a few rounds.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

G3SG1

Terrorist Only

The G3SG1 performs similarly to the SCAR-20 and is an excellent sniper for the Terrorists.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]


SMGs!
MAC-10

Terrorist Only

This gun is awful. Not recommended.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

MP9

Counter-Terrorist Only

This is the CT version of the MAC-10. Again, not a good gun.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

PP-Bizon

Terrorist or Counter-Terrorist

The PP-Bizon works OK but not as well as the P90. The high clip size is nice for encounters against a large group of enemies.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

UMP-45

Terrorist or Counter-Terrorist

This performs similarly to the PP-Bizon. It has slightly worse stats though, so either buy the PP-Bizon or the P90.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

MP7

Terrorist or Counter-Terrorist

Virtually no difference between the UMP-45 and this gun.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

P90

Terrorist or Counter-Terrorist

The P90 is the best SMG, no question. It is also the most expensive, but not by much. This is the only SMG I recommend using. Dont bother with the less effective (and only slightly cheaper) versions.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]


LMGs
M249

Terrorist or Counter-Terrorist

Just a less effective version of the assault rifles. You won't see many people using these in matches. Not recommended.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Negev

Terrorist or Counter-Terrorist

See the M249 description there is virtually no difference between them.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]


Shotguns!
(No descriptions on these. )
They're all very similar, apart from the way they shoot. Some are semi-auto and some need to be pumped before each shot.

Nova

Terrorist or Counter-Terrorist

Sawed-Off

Terrorist Only

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

MAG-7

Terrorist or Counter-Terrorist

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

XM1014

Terrorist or Counter-Terrorist

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]


Pistols!
P2000

Counter-Terrorist Only

The P2000 is a semi automatic pistol. Not very powerful but cheap, only buy if you cant afford anything else!

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Glock-18

Terrorist or Counter-Terrorist

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Pretty much the same at the P250.

Tec-9

Terrorist Only

More powerful. Terrible accuracy. Not recommended.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

P250

Terrorist or Counter-Terrorist

The P250 is an OK all round gun. Far better than the cheaper weapons. Recommended only when you cannot afford higher.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Five-SeveN

Terrorist or Counter-Terrorist

Not very powerful, but high accuracy and movement. I don't like this pistol but try it! You might.

[img]http://c365330.r30.cf1.rackcdn.com/wp-content/uploads/CSGO-Five-SeveN.jpg?e83a2c[/img]

Dual Berettas

Terrorist or Counter-Terrorist

With a huge fire rate, and an OK fire power, these guns will be good for quick, unexpected kills.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Desert Eagle

Terrorist or Counter-Terrorist

Not good accuracy, but if you can get used to the recoil, amazing gun. Hugely powerful. Looks awesome too, which is cool. ;)

How to get better at CS:GO

1) Turn down your sensitivity.
It will help you with your accuracy. You'll hit much more.

2) Always go for head shots.
Head shots are extremely effective on CS:GO and will kill far faster.

3) Play arms race.
This will allow you to get used to all the guns, and get used to the game.

4) Train with bots.
This will also allow you to get to grips with the guns, maps etc.

Extra Tips!

1) Crouching drastically improves your aim.

2)SMGs bullets kick a lot but the reticle does not. Aim for the knees and the bullets will kick up to the head.

3)Rifles are best used in burst fire mode, or by pulsing the trigger.

4)Dont expect to play CS:GO like Halo; crazy antics tend to end in death.
