Gaming Garage ©: Counter Strike The Famous Multiplayer Game

CounterStrike is a team-based game in which players join either the Terrorists (T) or the Counter-Terrorists (CT). Each round starts with the two teams spawning simultaneously; usually they are given a few seconds before the round starts to buy equipment (weapons, ammunition, armor, etc.). Usually, they can buy more equipment in the first 90 seconds after the round starts, depending on the server settings, and provided they are in a designated "buy zone" for their team.

The goal of the game is to complete the level's objectives (e.g., the Terrorists may have to plant a bomb) or to eliminate the opposing force within the given time limit. The round ends when a team wins the round or when the round's time limit is reached. The game tracks how many players each player has killed, how many times they have died, and gives players money for killing enemies or completing team objectives. It also tracks how many times each team has won. Both teams receive additional money at the beginning of the next round, with the winners of the last round receiving more money than the losers. Surviving players retain their equipment but those who have died must buy new equipment.

Any players killed before the round is over become "ghosts"; their chat/voice messages cannot be seen/heard by the players still alive, they become invisible, but they are able to watch the rest of the round.
The developers of Counter-Strike have added several restrictions to this system over the years to prevent spying ghosts from communicating with those still playing. For example, ghosts cannot change their names until a new round begins because in early versions, dead players could communicate with the living by changing their names (e.g., Mr_He_Is_behind_you). Depending on server configuration, ghosts may or may not have possibility of floating freely anywhere on the map.

The default in early versions was to allow the ghosts to float freely, but this default was changed later because dead players spied on the living and could communicate through alternative media (most notably voice in case of Internet cafes).

Whether its A Girl or Boy it doesn't matter when it comes to Cs, all are interested in Counter strike Gaming..;-) [\m/]

The game is a fast-paced yet tactical shooter, in a similar vein as the "Tom Clancy's" series of shooters. Pacing is fast, in the sense that players die in one or two hits from some guns, though gameplay is not nearly as fast-paced as Unreal Tournament.
