CSS Vs. Cs 1.6

Counter-Strike:Source Or Counter-Strike 1.6

CSS PWNS

I've personally wondered about this. As I've only ever played CSS, I cannot speak with authority... but I've wondered... other than graphics, are there a real difference between the two?

I really dislike both communities, but other than that CS 1.6 attracts me since we used to play it in school with 20 ppl, illegally

I liked CS 1.6, so much better in my opinion.

Haha, someone actually voted "What is a counter-strike?"

I like CSS... but no offense on 1.6, i would love to play that game again sometime.

Although CSS has great graphics and physics, I don't think there will ever be an equivalent of CS.

 

[Insurge]

I think 1.6 and source are pretty much the same.. since Source has better graphics I go for that.

 

[EyelessHunter]

I like CS:S source better.

I voted for CSS, but if 1.5 was an option I'd have voted for that. 1.5 was the pinnacle of CS IMHO.

Hmm... Captain Canuck, your not Canadian in your avatar ^^

That was random... lol What was 1.5 all about then Canuck?

EDIT:
Wasn't CS originally a HL2 mod?

I've never plyed 1.6 but I can only assume that it is a much older version of the game. So I'd probably prefer CSS. Graphics arn't much of a problem for me but when your used the ones of the newer games, I'd tend to enjoy the older one less. For example I played Sims 2 before Sims 1, so I didn't enjoy Sims 1 as much.

Counterstrike was a modification of Half Life 1 engine. It was originally known as Half Life: Counterstrike. The game went through 7 BETA versions then 6 non-BETA versions. After that it was ported to the HL2 engine which is how we know it now.

1.3 or 1.5 were the pinnacle of the game, depending upon how you looked at it. I would say 1.3 was the best. There were more traditional cs or de maps than odd maps likfe surf and fy. The graphics were ok for the time but with skins you could upgrade it to look great. The big advantage of the game, thanks to the HL engine, was it could be played on such a variety of machines. Much like the source games now.

In a game like CS I think graphics are less important than actual gameplay. gameplay in CS was always top notch as far as I am concerned.

For CSS I do not like the pyhsics. The graphics are ok but it is missing something that the original CS had and maybe that is just me looking through the nostalgia glasses.

I would have to say graphics are superficial when compared to gameplay. If a game is fun to play it doesn't matter about the graphics. But to each their own.

CS 1.6 was my first online game when my old friend gave me his cd key as a gift
(now we are arch-enemies)
Cs 1.6 was great for 2 years
Then i decided to buy CSS
I was so excited
But i still prefer CSS

I play 1.6 exclusively for fy_iceworld and CS:S exclusively for zombie mod. Well, at least I used to before I got TF2 lol

If I had to choose, CS:S

I voted for CSS. I've played 1.5 and 1.6, but in my opinion CSS is a finish product of 1.5/1.6.
