Valve Software has gone insane and has posted some pics from what looks to be CS Beta 5. It has new images from the maps and what seems to be the new shotgun. We wouldn't have posted this if it weren't from valve, so to this we say: WTF!?

Okay, check out this from VE:
Update
Okay, check out this from VE:
Counter-Strike Beta 5, includes 2 new maps and a fully automatic shotgun, as well as significant improvements in the areas of ease of use, active visual feedback and accessibility. The CS team and Barking Dog have been working together to refine the HUD, improve the menus and help system, and implement new observer modes and features. Valve helped finance and produce the project as a way to say thank you to the Half-Life community and further the effort to showcase the great work of all HL mod developers. We've been thrilled with the success of Counter-Strike - the number of players continues to grow steadily as more and more people find out how fun the game is.This is the first feature list and new shots from beta five, and does it r0x0r? I think it does!
New features list:
- 1 new weapon: the fully automatic shotgun
- 2 new maps: Back Alley and TrainYard, plus updates to existing maps
- 3 new observer modes: classic ghost, locked chasecam and freelook chasecam
- Auto-find teammate in observer mode
- Ghosts can be made visible to other ghosts
- Improved help system for new players
