Ryan Feltrin of Gray Matter Studios (who used to be Xatrix, makers of Kingpin) has updated his .plan and he talks about... Counter-Strike. Here's what he says:
This game rocks. It's hard to even attempt to think of it as a mod, but it's just amazing. A few balance issues prevent it from being my idea of a "perfect game", but that's no doubt a matter of opinion, and is nowhere near as strong as my admiration for it.How elite. Little Rizzuh, come back!
My hat goes off to those associated with the project.
