For PC? Yeah I already have it. For xbox / ps3? Not really, its not the same thing.

omi25p4263d ago

I play Counter Strike source of PC all the time, Ive just started playing CSGO on 360 and it plays pretty well..

AIndoria4263d ago

Please stop being an elitist PC snob. It makes us look bad.

I said the same thing in numerous articles. It's amazing how many people can be stupid.

BraveToaster4263d ago

But they're really not the same. You can't get mods on consoles. Mods make up a huge part of the game.

AIndoria4262d ago

@BraveToaster : Yes they do, however, It doesn't really matter. Yes, I love modding games, but I do love consoles too in the fact that I can pick up and play, no hassles, no installations and no "Yourmum.exe has stopped working." :P

If there's a game which has amazing mods, we'll play it on PC. If not, consoles. *Shrug* Don't really see a fight here :P

Top 1 reason to not buy it: Worst Community Ever.

Lugia50004263d ago (Edited 4263d ago )

Worst community ever? Im guessing you prefer the loud COD kids.

This guy explains how COD kids will react when playing this game.

omi25p4263d ago

Really..... your going to use Elpresador as a way of winning an article. The guy is a colossal bell*nd.

BattleAxe4263d ago (Edited 4263d ago )

The Socom Community on the PS2 was the best community ever seen in gaming.

I played the CS:GO beta on PC, and while I had some fun with it, the hit detection was absolutely terrible. Another thing I didn't like were the huge amounts of cheaters in the game. Go onto Youtube and watch the cheaters, its brutal.

StayStatic4263d ago (Edited 4263d ago )

This is not a COD article

AO1JMM4263d ago

I believe the CoD community is worse than the CS community. But the BF community is getting up there too. Have you seen the forums on Battlelog? I have never seen such a high concentration of complete douchebags before.

pandaboy4263d ago

PC games in general have this problem. Full obnoxious and conceited gamers with little else to do but to spend hours each day perfecting their skills at a video game whilst raging at noobs to make themselves feel better about their own failed lives. Then they'll at some point slip in a sly remark about how fantastic their gaming set up is when nobody else cares.

The CoD community? Mainly just immature kids. At least most of them will grow up unlike the PC gamers.

Tomonobu Itagaki4263d ago

Well, I wont tell about the whole PC gaming community, but you pretty much summed up the Counter Strike one.

Baka-akaB4263d ago

The worst part is when you realize many of the guys that brags the most about their rigs are mostly playing games that demands nothing , like CS , WoW , starcraft , Minecraft .

Sure it's nice to at least have the power and choice of playing any juggernaut and heavy game , but if it's only for bragging right screw you .

Before some get upset i'm only describing some fellow pc gamers , and their "elite" attitude , especially toward consoles .

opticscythe4263d ago

i like how there is no real reasons in the list that explain why its a good game and we should buy it.

also, IMO CS DOES have one of the WORST communities in gaming, wayy worse than cod kiddies but not quite as bad as LoL/DoTA/HoN

Top 5 reasons you should go kill yourself!

Seriously i wouldn't be suprised if a topic like that got onto the front page in the next week....

OT: There's only one reason to buy Counter Strike:Global Offensive and that's the fact it's a new fucking Counter Strike game

TronEOL4263d ago (Edited 4263d ago )

I don't need to read the reasons because I already own it on PC/PS3.
Seriously, it's Counter-Strike, what more do you need to know?

DeathProof4263d ago

Yeah I'm above reading as well....um...besides reading your comment...and sometimes I read Play Boy.

Team Fortress: Source 2 and Portal 64 Fan Projects Shut Down by Valve Takedowns

Fan projects Team Fortress: Source 2 and Portal 64 have shut down after Valve intervened in their development.

-Foxtrot105d ago

First they open Steam up to more AI, now they are shutting down fan projects when at one time they used to support or even give the fans jobs.

Wonder what's going on with Valve at the minute.

rlow1105d ago

@Foxtrot
It’s called money plain and simple.

JEECE105d ago

I mean, that might explain the Team Fortress 2 thing, because Valve might bring that to Source 2 (though I'm not sure I'd bet on that), but I can't see how Portal 64 hurts them. If anything, it's more attention to the Portal and therefore Valve/Steam.

Giblet_Head105d ago (Edited 105d ago )

There's potential that Valve had already planned to bring Source 2 to TF2 officially after Counter Strike 2. It's been getting some renewed attention lately.

Inverno104d ago

You got Nintendo to thank for Portal64 being taken down. As for TF2, most likely it's due to the probability of Valve working on a source 2 port themselves. It's sucks but Nintendo are the biggest pricks in the business and not letting this drag out into a huge court drama is the best decision.

Valve Opens the Floodgates to Allow More AI Based Games on Steam

Valve has updated its stance on AI games on the Steam storefront, allowing creators to publish AI-created games.

Droppedez105d ago

AI is just another form of slavery for our computer brethren.

Barlos105d ago (Edited 105d ago )

Hell no. I want games that have been made by creative minds who have a passion for their craft, not a bot with a penchant for plagiarism.

BrainSyphoned104d ago (Edited 104d ago )

So instead of paying for an engine and assets to create a game they are paying for an engine and assets to create a game.

Valve Tells Players To Stop Inhaling Steam Deck Vent Fumes

Valve has officially warned against inhaling the Steam Deck vent fumes in an official response due to potential health hazards.

gold_drake131d ago

my god, people are so dumb these days.

shinoff2183131d ago

I read the headline to my girl and she even reacted wtf is wrong with people. People wild

Notellin129d ago

I feel bad for her that she can't read and needs you to do it for her. Keep your head up!

shinoff2183128d ago

Notellin, I've been teaching her 😘

Jin_Sakai129d ago (Edited 129d ago )

This generation is about dumb as it gets.

frostypants129d ago

Huffing things isn't new to be fair.

SavageFlamingo129d ago

This has nothing to do with generations. It’s not a stupid challenge or anything. People just happened to smell it while they were playing. The steam deck exhaust is easy to smell without even trying. Just playing it you’ll smell it in the air around you.

Felix_Argyle_Catbro129d ago

"tHiS gEErAtIoN"
It's every generation, today you just see it more clearly thanks to internet.

k2d129d ago

To be fair, I loved the smell of glue, gas and certain plastics as a kid (new disc cartridges/new hardware, anyone?)

Si-Fly128d ago

Instruction manuals for me, best smell ever 😂

crazyCoconuts129d ago

I actually take a whiff of it once in a while, it's funny that it smells so good lol

DarXyde129d ago

Tide pod fiasco all over again

Felix_Argyle_Catbro129d ago

"tHeSe DaYs"
People have been just as dumb in the past, you just see it clearly now thanks to the internet.

gold_drake129d ago

thanks for that .. insight. ha.

rlow1129d ago

Well good thing about dumb people, they play an important part in human history. How else do we know which plants, animals and foods ar dangerous? Dumb people! They pay the price so the rest of us don’t have to. Lol

FinalFantasyFanatic129d ago

Honestly, I'm not even surprised considering some of the people I come across these days, inhaling fumes would explain a lot of things.

Wow people will huff anything nowadays some people just have way too much time on their hands.

Abnor_Mal129d ago (Edited 129d ago )

Another reason to love the PlayStation Portal, no chance of breathing in noxious vapors.

Get a Steam Deck they said, to which I reply, what are you high?

KwietStorm_BLM129d ago

Were you high when you typed this?

Abnor_Mal129d ago

Sorry bud no Steam Deck here.

129d ago
FinalFantasyFanatic129d ago (Edited 129d ago )

Even the Steam Deck does streaming better than the Portal (they portal is capped for streaming for some reason, whereas the Steam Deck isn't).

Neonridr129d ago

imagine pretending a glorified streaming device is better than a stand alone unit that can also, stream.

Stand by for the 'gaming kills' articles.
Que Halloween movie theme.

Nucleux129d ago

What does it smell/taste like?

Barlos129d ago

Better than the Switch cartridges is my guess.

Just to be clear, I've never licked a Switch cartridge, nor have I inhaled my deck's fumes.

Profchaos129d ago

Same never licked a switch cart I've always been worried more about where it's been than the taste but

Fluke_Skywalker129d ago

It smells good, that's the problem lol. When I first turned mine on I noticed it 😅
Better stop sniffing it then.

Barlos129d ago

I've had my deck for over a year, I've never been compelled to put my nose near the vent for a good lungful 😂

crazyCoconuts129d ago

I can't explain it... It smells...new

SavageFlamingo129d ago (Edited 129d ago )

Kind of like cheap bacon cooking. Even cheap bacon smells good.
