Counter-Strike: Source

Released in August of 2004, Counter-Strike: Source is a remake of the orginal Counter-Strike 1.6 based on the new source engine produced for Half-Life 2. Featuring improved graphics, physics, and hitbox accuracy (all thanks to the improved engine)  the game is essentially the exact same, down to the official maps. One of the most popular games made by Valve, Counter-Strike: Source was created primarily for the PC, but ports do exist. Enjoying a high  88/100 average on Metacritic, the game costs 19.99, and has been offered for half on promotional weekends.
