CNET's (bad-ass network, btw) GameCenter has kicked up their review for Counter-Strike 1.0. Here's some lovin' from Mr. Snippet himself:
In the end, they give 1.0 a semi-generous final score of 8 out of 10. Check out the review at GameCenter, and thanks to |SLNC|Quiet for the heads-up.As of now, what's the most frequently played first-person shooter on the Internet? Quake III Arena? Unreal Tournament? Team Fortress Classic? Wrong on all counts. Check the numbers, and you'll discover that something called Counter-Strike is currently bigger than all of these games combined. The brainchild of first-time designer Minh Le, Counter-Strike is a user-created Half-Life mod that went over huge with downloaders when it was released in 1999. With a little help from our friends at Valve (the developers of the original Half-Life), a standalone version of the game has now hit the retail market, which means that everyone can get a taste of the sweet gaming nectar.
