Terrorists win is one of the most iconic lines in gaming history
Glad they made another cs

Russians love counter-strike so much that when Putin announced the Draft, literally half of the CSGO player base left for a day

20:42 "Imagine if CS2 came out and it didn't have dust" Oh boy

Everytime you emphasized them not having to change much, and the fact that it kept its identity made it so successful; I couldn't stop be reminded of the fall of the Halo franchise.

It’s funny to me that Valve seems to be the only company that’s learned in the last 20 years that hiring modders and buying their work can be a huge benefit to your company.

When our boy Gaben says he can't say anything when asked whether a game will come out, it's not because he isn't sure.
It's because he isn't sure whether anyone there will still be alive when it does.

Even though I haven't played CS since the old 1.0 days, it warms my heart knowing the franchise is still alive and well.

That IEM Boston win back in 2018 was one of the most hype moments of CSGO I remember how CS fandom popped off at such a crazy C9 victory.

You know that when Valve announces a game with 2 in the title, it's gonna be the last game of that franchise. Only when Gaben becomes world leader we'll know for sure that there won't be a WW3.

Playing the Counterstrike beta at a LAN party in Michigan in 1999 and then immediately driving to a field with my friends to play paintball is a fond memory of mine

Counter strike is like chess. It’s popular and appealing in the modern day because it never changes much and there’s unlimited depth. You aren’t banking on later changes what you see is what you get and what you get has a virtually limitless skill ceiling while still being fairly accessible

As a computer science student, counter-strike is a true testament to software development in both its design engine and gameplay. The people behind it definitely deserve all the support they can get because what they are doing is NOT easy

I’ll never forget when I got “Counter Strike” on the Original Xbox back in the day. I didn’t have Xbox Live so I just played against the bots but man was it still so much fun. Looking back it’s very nostalgic.

CS:GO has actually had mini campaign missions released over the years. The Operation updates that it had usually shipped with actual objective based missions with voice acting, and a vague story. They were pretty cool. Danger Zone actually has lore which these campaign missions expanded on.

I'm a new player to CSGO (literally less than 10 hours lol) but I'm really enjoying it so far. Yeah it takes quite a while to get really good at and it's not uncommon to just get dunked on by absolute units with thousands of hours, but those matches every now and then where I somehow do really well out of nowhere definitely make it worth it. The lobbies of people talking trash and displaying absolute debauchery take me back to the classic Xbox Live days.

With how big CS has become, being a part of the game since the early years of 1.5 make me feel good. It's like watching a child grow.

I was a professional CS player back in early to mid 2000s for 1.5 and 1.6.Used to play with Summit1G etc. Started in Beta 5 in 1999. CS was so awesome because before that it was really arena shooters that were popular, like you discussed. Started when I was 17 and I'm 40 now lol.

counter strikes longevity is insanely impressive. hopefully cs2 has even more success.

CS is my rock. No matter what game comes out I always find myself delving back into cs years later and loving it just the same.
