In what seems to be a growing trend, another site has a Counter-Strike: Condition Zero preview up! This time, it's Computer Games Online, with its own preview with quotes from Randy Pitchford:
One interesting tidbit about the game is its unique save game function: there isn't one. Pitchford points out that there's no single mission objective or confrontation between the terrorists and counter-terrorists in the game that can last longer than four or five minutes, so it's not necessary to provide any more save frequency than that. The game will auto-save between missions and after each mission objective, to avoid excessive frustration, but retain the tension of Counter-Strike. "A significant part of the tension and realism is the feeling of how frail your life and the life of your squad can be," he says, and a creep-and-save possibility wouldn't preserve that feeling.This might draw some ire, but I think it's a fair concession. See the rest!
