    FragFortress CS:CZ Review

    FragFortress, a CS and Half-Life gaming community, received a copy of

    Counter-Strike: Condition Zero recently and has made a very large, detailed review of this game.



    This review mentions just about everything that CS:CZ has to offer. Anything that wasn't mentioned in all the hundreds of other reviews that you have seen is probably mentioned here. Here's a little snippet:
    The big enchilada we've been waiting for went bad over vacation. Translation? The much lauded single-player story driven mission game is now not the "official" single-player mode. You see, the whole story game was deemed "not for human consumption" and slapped with the stamp "Deleted Scenes," and is an optional install. Single-player is now simply a play against the bots objectives based simulated multiplayer. thing. Don't get me wrong -- it's not a total loss. In fact, I still love enchilada's, even with their silly stamps, and when you get past the steamy hype, it really isn't bad at all. I was actually quite impressed, just not as impressed as all that foggy hype said I should be. I'll go into detail about deleted scenes later in this article.
    This 10 page review should keep you busy for a while.

          I hope you enjoy this article!!!! I spent HOURS getting those screenshots, and aligning the camera to get the perfect shots of the best places on the maps.



          Thx for comments!

          I'll keep them in mind when writing the follow-up articles.

                  Really nice article. Actually built some hype for what I was expecting to be a dive of a game. I only look forward to the bots and new maps though



                  Those cz maps look so good, but they changed some critical parts in some of the popular levels so the multiplayer value of them is yet to be determined.

                    On the last page it said that CZ would be released "early this summer." I wish we had more official word on that. Great review though.

                            I don't understand why CS:CZ is still being delayed. Apparently these reviewers have been able to play the game just fine so why don't they just get to releasing the infernal thing already?



                            But I read the article. Very nice and detailed info... great read. CZ sounds like a good game. Now if they can just get to releasing it...
