Is it really worth me spending the money on?
If I purchase it I figured I'd buy the Complete Pack (with cs1.6 also) so I can play with friends and stuff. But I have so many damned FPSs installed on my computer, is there really enough different about it to warrant me buying it?
I currently have:
AA
TF2
HL2:DM
DoD
Red Orchestra
BF2
SW:BF II

And a bunch of other HL2 mods.

Worth the 30$? Or should I just find something else on steam to use my money on? :)

Thanks

Well that depends on how much you enjoy shooters, and the gametype.

CSS is roundbases, which can be frustrating if you're used to TDM games.
It's a good game though, I like CS 1.6 better, but you're getting that too.

Personally, I'd buy Postal. I've heard awesome stories about it and it seemed very fun.
I don't think Postal is expensive, so you can buy Gary's Mod as well. I played Gary's Mod when it was free, but I believe it costs some money now.

I began playing Combat arms before I left the US. But now I believe I can't play it, I haven't tried to be honest, I didn't enjoy it THAT much.

Then you cant play on steam servers.

But yeah definitely worth it dude. If you get bored with the old shoot em up type maps then fun maps are always cool, especially surf maps.

100$? Thats nothing. You must be downloading VERY old games.
But ever since I got an email warning from *insert copyright company name here*, I have ceased and desisted. Getting a 20$ with limited usability risking getting a massive lawsuit (okay its not that likely), just isn't worth it, as I could definitely not afford a lawsuit.

I bought the package with CS:S / DoD:S / HL2:Deathmatch / HL2:Lost Coast and taht's pretty good
I only play CSS and DoDS, though

So yes, it is worth it, at least for me! I always switch from one RPG to another, but I enjoy and play only CS:S as for 1st person shooting games.

so GET IT!!!!

Css is the the best somewhat modern graphic game to play on pc. I bought Cod4, tf2, and dod:s but always come back to CSS.
There are many ways to play Counter-strike source without buying it. I played it for a few months on no steam servers(had a friend who ran a really nice cracked public server) and had a blast. Tho the cracked scene is very limited. With the real game you can find thousands more servers with better mods/maps/players.
If you just want to test the game out like I did then go to http://forum.digitalpowered.info/ and download the standalone CSS and patch it with the http://css.setti.info/ cracked server list. If you like it, then buy it. If you do not, then pass.
In the end, I bought it cause I liked it that much. It's pretty fun when you get to understand it.

not old, my computer just cant handle the games that are selling for $60 today.

how did you get an email warning from a company? its almost impossible for companies to track downloaders. The people that are in the most danger are the uploaders and the crackers.

I once got warned by Comcast that I was downloading an illegal movie once.

Can't remember who the company was. But its VERY easy to track people, log the IP in the peer list and find out who owns it through your ISP.

Yeah, happened to me 2.
I was warned that I was downloaded copyrighted material illegally :O
You guys have to think what is more expensive: a lawsuit from the owner or whatever, or the game or movie itself... even though the chances that you will get caught are not very high there is always the possibility... They CAN track you down!

Now I do everything the legal way :P

DoD : S is worth it actually. Played it since the HL1 days always loved it. And now DoD : S got the TF2 style achievements and the updated HL2 Orange engine it's brilliant. You do need a good pub / home server tho so it stays attractive.

One of the best FPS games ever created imo...simple..yet fun and entertaining.

You could play for hours and hours on the same map and never get bored for some weird reason lol..not so much fun when u play against computer though.

If you are really into competitive gaming you should get it..its a must.

I lost interest in buying legal PC games years ago..the world of piracy is never limited *_*

*stares at space*
