Counter-Strike vs Counter-Strike: Global Offensive
Counter-Strike
Counter-Strike is one of the the pioneers of the team-based multiplayer, action-shooter game genre and it is thanks to these games that we now have games like Combat Arms or even Blacklight. That said, you probably have heard of Counter-Strike so I'll keep this simple. The game places you into a team - either as Terrorists or Counter-Terrorists - before the match and your team will be given an objective to do, be it taking out enemy sites, rescue hostages or simply taking out the other team. For the "vanilla" version of Counter-Strike, the multiplayer community is pretty nice overall and definitely not as toxic as in the latest installment.However, the graphics can be rather painfully outdated in this game. So, unless you are feeling nostalgic or if you don't really mind old graphics, then Counter-Strike might just be the game for you.
Counter-Strike: Global Offensive
Counter-Strike: Global Offensive is a testament to how far the Counter Strike franchise had come... from its humble beginnings as a mod to now a thriving series with millions of players, a robust skins-trading market and a rather sizeable cut of the eSports pie. That said, the game offers fans and new players alike a much improved gameplay though most of the stuff in it is still pretty much the usual, familiar sort. There are tons of weapons for you to play with, as well as a ridiculously wide range of skins to make the weapons you have in your loadout to look fantastically unique.However, being a very competitive game, the amount of toxicity in this game can reach unbearable levels. Despite Valve's best efforts, brazen hackers still roamed the game and the rage... ohhh, it's real alright. To play with random players will usually mean you'll need to have a really thick skin and a zen-like focus on the game, but playing multiplayer with your friends can still be pretty fun though.
