Shinji said he was vomiting blood when playing it, iirc. Maybe he tested the earlier "review code" of CZ a few months ago which never has been released.

Sounds a bit crap, to me.

Half Life was a fluke.

I'm half expecting the above italics not to work, but you know what I mean ;)
It's been a long time since I took my HTML course :p
I thought UBB code was HTML code.

Indeed. Actually, the vomit-inducing rubbish that I originally reviewed is still in this as "Deleted Scenes". You know, the kind that you look at and go "Christ, I can see why they were deleted..."

They put it in as a sort of "you should be thankful - we saved you from paying for THIS" kind of thing.

Who made the crap version, again?

The game has now been updated via steam (Valves online software distribution system). Along with numerous patches and fixes, the game now includes high def player and weapon models, which does help.

the single player "deleted scenes" game of this is quite good. The inbuilt bots are awsome, this game is pretty good, but youll feel ripped off if you already own cstrike

Is there a difference between the US version and the over seas version of Counter Strike?
