VALVE officially takes Xbox 360 gamers for chumps with this new CS:GO info.

"On PC and Mac, Counter-Strike: GO players can expect the standard options you get with a Steam game and any of the control options you would have with a computer. On the Xbox 360, players will use a game pad. On the PS3, players can use the game controller, the PlayStation Move motion controller or even a mouse and keyboard. PS3, Mac and PC players will be match-made against each other, clumped by skill, regardless of input device or platform. (Valve didn't demonstrate the PS3-PC.Mac cross-play to me today, but they confirmed that that enticing bit of networking is something they are striving to include in the game.)"

So, uhh, who's still buying the Xbox 360 version?

I can imagine the gnashing of teeth and return of games when PS3 users get hopelessly owned, Keyboard and mouse support isn't like PC support your using generic drivers so those fancy dpi settings, high accuracy and such on that pc mouse? yep only basics are supported on the ps3 its not like you can plug in a 24 button mouse and all the buttons work on the ps3.

your getting generic usb drivers even if you use a mouse and keyboard high precision mice users on the PC will be owning you.

They will get Kinect support and beat everyone.

A lot of gaming mice aren't fully supported in OS X either (the logitech mx 518 to name one). I take it they're going to get owned by PC users as well?

move support? im impressed :)

Oh, so you are buying the Xbox 360 version.

I hope I get into a match where everyone is using a Dualshock 3 aside from me

picking up the ps3 version day one. oohhhhhh yeahhhhh.

I'll own PC gamers with my PS3 controller, who is up for the challenge?

Sorry, couldn't link.

I still have no idea what this game is supposed to be. Just a watered-down CS that is available on more platforms? Doesn't really matter though, you're doing it wrong if you're not playing CS on PC.Karnage108

PC is all about the keyboard and mouse.

Which is what the PS3 version will have.

I have a secret... I'm the BOOM HEADSHOT guy. Prepare ! :twisted:

I can't wait to kick ass with my move controller 8)

Blame Micro$oft for isolating there platform TC.

That royally sucks for 360. I want an fps where the whole mob (pc/mac/360/ps3) frag each other and it doesn't matter if kb/mouse is more precise when consoles get auto-aim.silversix_

Aim assists won't help enough.

Great for PS3 Owners, sucks for 360 owners.

Although PS3 owners playing this, prepare to get owned by teh PC gamers. 8)

They are also only facing other Xbox 360 owners.

Why would anyone buy CS on console?

It's not even graphically demanding so you can't use the "OMG I DONT WANNAHAZ SPEND $1000 A MONTH UPGRADING MY PC" excuse. My 5 year old sh*tty laptop can play the latest Valve games.

you're quite the person, putting a spin on PS3 owners getting more features as a bad thing. You don't know the first thing about Counter Strike. The best players or "pros" as they're called, commonly use a 600 dpi microsoft intellimouse. No fancy drivers.

Well then, why would anyone buy it for Xbox 360?

During that first week when all stats are fresh, the whole of PSN will cry out in pain.

OP seems to be unaware that the reason 360 is left out is because MS wont allow Steam on Xbox live.

As it is though the 360 version would sound terrible, but there's time for Valve to improve things and maybe even get MS to budge. Technically KB/M is possible through the 3rd party stuff out there.

Even something like this would work http://www.thecrimsoncrow.com/2011/05/splitfish-fragfx-shark-for-xbox-360-looks-promising

If anyone is buying Counter Stike on anything but the PC then theyre doing it wrong.

lol... talk about easy kills. 360 owners got lucky. :P

this is probably some way to prevent their psn community from dying out within the first couple of weeks like most ps3 games

Though I've stopped CS years ago...it's still extremely popular here, and everone knows that CS 1.6 is the only real CS.

No you won't.

But at least the PS3 players have the Mac players to beat up.

MS is just protecting their userbase from being owned, can you imagine the raaaageeeee. Prolly 10x as much as you get nowadays on CoD.

No you won't.
