That's pretty amazing. The most played PC shooter(?) and one of the longest played, and its sequel is being sold at indie game prices. If this was any other company, it would have been an easy $60.

It's not a full fledged game. They are trying to soak up some revenue as they finish the Source 2 engine. That is also why CSGO is getting released on Xbox Live Arcade and Sony Arcade for the same price.

This. It's not a full retail game. and XBLA games (CSGO is one) is usually $15 max.
It doesnt have singleplayer campaign or tons of voice acting.
My question is why is CS:S still $20 at full price?

For the same reason CS 1.6 is still euros...

Still a legit source of income, CS 1.6 and CSS aswell. I guess Valve doesn't think the market for CS and CSS is saturated yet

I think Valve still consider themselves indie actually, well they did a couple years ago, not sure if thats still the case.

Is a nice price though, wasn't a fan of the game myself.

Well from the standpoint that they aren't contracted to a publisher or receive outside funding they are the definition of indie. They're just really huge and successful and rich indie.

So they are an Indie Development company who just happens to own by far the largest digital distribution platform...

I play cs since 2002.. and valve just want the cs 1.6 players go to CS:GO.. CS:GO is not good, cs 1.6 still is the better and CS:S is much better than CS:GO. CS:GO is a CS:S but worst.

How could anyone say CSS is better than CS:GO.

Because CS:GO is dumbed down? CS:GO is intended to "broaden" the series' audience. And by "broadening" they mean getting the console owners to buy it. The epitome of the console FPS is COD. So, since CS:GO is releasing for consoles as well it needed to be dumbed down. Now don't get me wrong. It's far from COD. And it was only dumbed down slightly. It was still dumbed down though.

Lol, no COD player will go cu CSGO, I have like 4 years since I play COD and only played 20 minutes of CSGO in beta to realise it's a weak game...yeayh, I played Cs like 6 years ago but I didn't knew back then that are much better games.

I play COD a lot and I completely disagree with you. CS GO is a far superior game to COD, it requires much more skill. Haven't played the older CS games but almost everyone says it's better than CS GO too.

I just play COD because most of my friends play it, and it's easy to pubstomp and its fairly relaxing to play. With CS GO, I need to concentrate.

Please, humour me. How was it "dumbed down"? Please list all ways you think. I love all the people bashing it without really being able to quantify what exactly they're bashing..

Ok i'll admit it here. I was okay at CS:S and sucked at CS 1.6, but i RAPED in CS:GO. I'm going off personnel experience here, but the series is obviously getting dumbed down somehow. For one i realized early on it's either more forgiving or it has terrible hitboxes. I can be fired at for more then 5 seconds and be able to get away.

Could it be that CS:GO simply has more noobs? Not many new people are going to try an 8 year old FPS that barely looks better than the 13 year old one it remade, but this is presented as a brand new title. It also introduced matchmaking by skill, unless of course you only use the server browser.

csgo>cs1.6>css

source gameplay sux comparing ti 1.6 i dnt like it walking animation and its efffect is also no good when a player get shots but in cs1.6 movements and head shot animation is too fun to play it.
IN new csgo update its like 1.6 with better graphics. I liked it too much.

CSS is superior to GO in a number of ways. There's a few small things they've improved in GO, but for the most part, CSS is the better shooter for competitive play.

... Wow. Really?

And tell me then, how that has anything to do with gun recoil, walk speed, speed of direction change, visibility, map design, animations, and other actual game specifics?

I bet you don't even know the differences between those two modes you posted..

i really like how CSGO looks, but, CSS is a lot better.. in CSS you need skills to win, CSGO is more "noob friendly", you dont need so much skills there.. still a nice game for the xbox 360 or ps3, but i preffer play CSS on the PC..

People are giving too much credit to CSGO. CSS is still better, and more competitive. There's a Classic Competitive in CSGO, yet CSS is still more competitive. And don't forget CS 1.6, the game that started it all.

Yes, but CSS didn't turn out to be a piece of shit.
EDIT: let's see what csgo added. fancy graphics,negev (why hasnt this shit been nerfed yet), some new guns, some no point in using, and some other shit i cant be assed to list. also no quickswitching

What did CSS add if you compare it to 1.6? Fancy graphics and...?

Anyhow, somehow Source did turn out as a piece of shit. 1.6 (a 12 year old game) still has more players than the newer Source :p
