    CSX - thnx for such a lovely review but tbh I don't think i'll be rushing out to buy it for my Xbox , I find after playing on PC almost all my life that playing any game with those annoying anolgue control sticks really frustrate me , I mean lets be honest who is actually gonna sit there on de_aztec for 20mins with an AWP trying to hit someone ? well not me anyway i'll stick to the PC as the graphics are far nicer and basically all the Xbox hype doesn't amount to much as the sales figures show for themselves. The Xbox has always been a 733mhz with an outdated graphics card as you can tell for the measly £120 that most stores are selling them for now and I mean that gives you Halo. For PC fans of CS , I think CSX will disappoint heavily and I won't b shelling out money for a game which I have on my PC and is much better on PC than on a console with Oversized controllers and more buttons than a Boeing 747 and the size of the controller , jesus what was Microsoft thinking , Im fat and my hands are chunky and they don't manage to fit snuggly round the controller.



    4/10 Give CSX a miss
    If you like CS on the PC, stick with it. There's no reason to change. CSX is a different sort of game (you can read that in the article) for a different type of player. There's some overlap, but not everyone who likes one will like the other. XBox players will most likely feel the same as you do about the PC version.



    Oh, and looky - a screenshot of the CSX version of Dust!

        I'll make my final judgement when I rent it. It sounds different as rizzuh said, but I guess change can be a good thing. We'll just have to wait and see.

                Good article.



                If I did not have a PC, I think CSX would be a definite purchase.

                  Good report from E3 - shame you didn't get to see HL2 in action though.



                  Scout seems to like the T-shirt - I'm sure he is grateful that you spent all those hours in a queue to procure a garment he can moult over.

                    NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There's different box cover art!!!! NOW I HAVE TO DECIDE WHICH ONE TO GET!!! I'm already torn between the Gordon Freeman box and that silver box with the HL2 logo on it... Now I'm going to descend into a madness for the next 4 months trying to decide the one to get.

                      Thanks for the writeup rizzuh. We all know the struggles you must have endured (boothbabes) to get this information for us. We thank you.



                      And scout!

                          Alright! Techno crates! I've always wanted those...



                          As far as CSX goes, I'll buy it when I get an Xbox which will happen when I get off my ass to find a job which won't happen until this summer. Why will I buy CSX? Because I think Xbox Live is something great. I decided early on that the only Xbox titles I will buy will be Live ones, so that's why I will get CSX (And Clone Wars and Splinter Cell).



                          As far as HL2, I downloaded the movie from GameSpy. That video went right up there with porn as far as how great it was. I'm with that guy who was talking about his 486. I don't want to upgrade from my 533... Well, I guess it is finally time to get a better computer. Seriously though, Half-Life 2 will be awesome. And with the kind of engine HL2 runs on, TF2 and CS2 will probably be equally as awesome.



                          Untill then, I'll just have to let CS:CZ for the PC tide me over.

                            I had signs all over my head when I saw the CSX controls diagram.
