Counter the strike, gentlemen!

This game is fairly well done. The guns and maps are great.

The strange thing is there is no single player, really. No campaign, no missions, no nothing. You just turn on the system, and bam, you are ready to play. But other than that it is pretty good.

The Pros are.....that it's just a good game. A good shooter for the X-box.

The Cons are that 1. the bots are GODLIKE on high levels (not just "good", they are too perfect to be believable), not to mention that they always know where you are, even if you are hiding in a vent, on top of the level, etc, 2. there isn't even any multiplayer other than online or system linking, and 3. There's alot of "spraying" online with the silenced M4. Not really a problem with the game, just the people that play it.

Overall, I think it's worth it, but I'm a sucker for a good shooter. If you are always playing with friends over at your house, this is not the game for you. If you are a lone player, and love going online a ton, this is it.

------Extra stuff--------

Another fun thing to do is to just play around with the game settings. One of my personal favorites is to set it to Miami, be on terrorists, set 8 bots against you, make it where they can't buy anything (they're stuck with knife), and turn on friendly fire. Buy a good gun, or run around and use the knife and kill the hostages. Then run outside doing your best to avoid the enemy bots. Jump up on top of the van, then to the lamppost, and enjoy watching the Counter-terrorist bots jumping at you, knifing each other to death. Mwaha.

Another fun thing to do is simply give yourself some teammates, make it where bots can't buy anything, turn the money way up, and keep buying magnums and throwing them in front of your teammates! Funny to watch!

---------------------

I guess I've been rambling....the point is that this game is totally fun every once and a while, but you can majorly get burnt out on it if you play it too much. So if you have can only have one game, pick something else. If you see Counter Strike lying on a shelf at the store, buy it and have fun!

(Thanks to my bro for the fun "gametypes")
