Finally, Thresh's Firing Squad realized that there's more to gaming than Q3A and UT, so they slapped up a sexy article about CS. Here's a bit:
That's when he noticed that CS has more players than Q3A and UT combined!So when Terence started playing a Half Life mod called Counter-Strike, I dismissed it initially as one of those "lame things that Terence plays." I watched him play it once in a while, and couldn't understand how he put up with the Half Life net code. The engine feel isn't as crisp as a lot of the other shooters on the market either, and I especially couldn't fathom why anyone would be willing to wait several minutes after dying to respawn. Quake always lets you respawn right away, so the action never stops.
