N4G May Contests: Round 2

Comment lottery, loyal reader lottery and a chance to win CS: GO shirts!

TheModernKamikaze4361d ago

I really want that $50 for Mother's Day.

jdfoster4361d ago

$50 US ... Would that be converted to what it's worth in Pounds if someone from the UK won (like me :p) Or just be £50?

Cat4361d ago

It's converted at whatever the rate is at time of purchase

Cat4361d ago

yep! Contests are limited to earth.

TheModernKamikaze4361d ago

Also I'm just 15 is it okay if I ask my parents to use their credit card for registering In paypal and create an account for amazon?

PirateThom4361d ago

I should really pay more attention to these contests... it's stuff for just doing stuff you do on the website.

4 or 5 players in a game is not players frantically dusting it off

Jin_Sakai202d ago

We all know that videogamer.com went to each and every Xbox 360 owners house to watch them frantically dust off their 360s.

Vits202d ago

I mean it is a 1000% growth in the player-base. /s

mandf202d ago

Enough to write an article though. N4g new owners are insulting us for click revenue

Vits202d ago

@mandf

Nothing to do with new owners. N4G has always been the trashcan for game news and discussion.

northpaws202d ago

I love video games so much that I never have the time to replay the old one that I have finished, my backlog has only gotten bigger and bigger. I don't get how some people can play one game for years (except for mmorpg)

mandf202d ago

It's an exaggeration to the extreme. A way making an exclusive seen grander than it is.

Profchaos202d ago

Some people do I know someone who only ever plays dune 2000 which is rarely but still

RedDevils202d ago

Those Fifa or COD players do that every years.

Inverno202d ago

Wonder why they've never ported this game over to last Gen and now current Gen. This game would be pretty popular right now, I think.

Players Spent Over $100 Million On CS:GO Cases Last Month, A New Record

About 39.5 million loot boxes were opened throughout March 2023, right after Valve announced Counter-Strike 2. It goes without saying that gamers love gambling, especially those who play Counter-Strike: Global Offensive.

I have about 260 hours on csgo and have not spent a single penny on any of the microtransactions. You can still enjoy it since it's not pay to win.

‘Counter-Strike 2’ Release Date Nears As Devs Test Source 2

The rumours are heating up and it looks like Counter-Strike 2, the move onto the Source 2 engine for CS:GO, is coming very soon based on testing files found on Steam.

Number1TailzFan401d ago

S&box devs already have access to Source 2 and have done for a while.

DOTA 2 was Source 2 but hardly anyone noticed/cared because it wasn't one of the Valve games most wanted. L4D3 was scrapped because Source 2 wasn't ready and buggy.

Half Life Alyx has been the only official Source 2 game that people notice so far.. The engine still looks pretty good graphically, but it looked far more impressive back in 2014 when the leaked plantation level that was rebuilt on Source 2 (for L4D2) was shown. Too bad it took this long for Valve to do anything with the engine.. with all the money they have I have to wonder what happened. Even a smaller dev studio could've produced stuff within a couple of years.

Not sure why this hyped tbh, it’s only in updated engine. Same maps, same game. So long as it’s top of steam listings, it’ll be here for evermore.
