Counter-Strike: Source is an amazing online modern tactical shooter where you can play with thousands across the world. As a sequel to Counter-Strike 1.6, the Source engine has updated CSS with new graphics, sound effects, and much more. Furthermore, there is an amazing gameplay where you battle against terrorists or counter-terrorists. If you are a terrorist you must plant a bomb and let it explode before the enemies turn it off. On the other hand, the counter-terrorists must eliminate all the terrorists and stop any bombs that have been placed. After each round you gain money which will allow you to buy weapons, ammo, and accessories during the match itself. There are tons of weapons that are used from around the world from Famas to the AK-47. You can also buy body armor with or without a helmet, which will let you survive longer than usual, different types of grenades, or night vision. If you die during the round you will loose the weapons you bought, making you start off with the default weapons, a pistol and a knife. However, if you survive you will keep the weapons. Also, money isn't really a factor, but if you are trying to save up to buy a M249 than you can just start with your default weapons and take any guns on the ground from the dead enemies or teammates. Moreover, the graphics are pretty good depending on the PC you have. The sound is a major factor that must be used because you have to hear the footsteps and gun shots of the enemies to know where they are. Overall, Counter-Strike: Source is an incredible update that will definitely satisfy any shooter fans. There are thousands of servers to play in, but if you can't find a server, which you probably won't experience, then you can go against a number of selected bots.
