  • New Counter-Strike Game Announced, Coming Soon To PS3, Xbox 360, PC and Mac

    The rumors swirling around the internet were true after all. Valve has announced Counter-Strike Global Offensive for PS3, Xbox 360, PC and Mac. This new game will be released on PC on Steam while Xbox 360 and PS3 will get it on XBLA and PSN. The release date hasn’t been specified yet but an early 2012 date was given by Valve.

    Counter-Strike is a popular game which wasn’t originally a full fledged game but just a sort of mod of the original Half-Life for PC. It became the most played online PC game in 1999 and is still popular today despite showing its age now.

    This recent Counter-Strike news will cheer a lot of the die-hard Counter-Strike fans and considering the fact that it is made available on almost every mainstream gaming platform these days, it will surely be a treat. You can read the full press release below.

    VALVE ANNOUNCES COUNTER-STRIKE: GLOBAL OFFENSIVE (CS: GO)

    Next Gen Console, PC, and Mac Release Targeted for Early 2012

    August 13, 2011 – Valve, creators of best-selling game franchises (such as Counter-Strike, Half-Life, Left 4 Dead, Portal, and Team Fortress) and leading technologies (such as Steam and Source), today announced Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS: GO).
    Targeted for release via Playstation Network, Xbox Live Arcade, and Steam (for PC and Mac) in early 2012, CS: GO will expand upon the team-based action gameplay that it pioneered when it was launched exactly 12 years ago (CS beta 1, August 1999).
    CS: GO features new maps, characters, and weapons and delivers updated versions of the classic CS content (de_dust, etc.). In addition, CS: GO will introduce new gameplay modes, matchmaking, leader boards, and more.
    “Counter-Strike took the gaming industry by surprise when the unlikely MOD became the most played online PC action game in the world almost immediately after its release in August 1999,” said Doug Lombard, VP of Marketing at Valve. “For the past 12 years, it has continued to be one of the most-played games in the world, headline competitive gaming tournaments and selling over 25 million units worldwide across the franchise. CS: GO promises to expand on CS’ award-winning gameplay and deliver it to gamers on the PC as well as the next gen consoles and the Mac.”
    CS: GO is being developed by Valve in cooperation with Seattle-based Hidden Path Entertainment. The title is targeted for release in early 2012 and will be playable at this year’s PAX Prime and London Games Festival.

  • Team Fortress 2 Is Now Free To Play

    Team Fortress 2, one of Valve’s biggest games is now free to play on Steam. The game has been played by millions of players across the PC, Mac and Xbox 360. It was initially reported that the game is free to play for a limited time but Valve later confirmed that this new change was permanent. Valve has also released a promo video to announce the news which you can check out after the break. What could be the reason behind making one of their best selling games free? Maybe they have Team Fortress 3 under production. Even thinking about it gives me goosebumps, but can Valve really count till 3? Only time will tell.
