3.5/5

I mean... does much need to be said.

After the success of the original Counter-Strike and the boom of e-sports, it was only logical what needed to be done with CSGO (CS Source was not it, even though i like it as much). And they did it - they made one of the most memorable shooters of all time, and capitalized on it - big.

It's not a perfect game, but it is bugless, it is getting frequent updates and staying very balanced for online matchmaking.

It is also competitive, very competitive, and the learning curve is huge, meaning it is not time consuming to get good at it, but very time consuming to get better than most.
And that's what most of the players drown their time in.

But, besides competitive, it gets to be fun in other ways.
It is very easy to enjoy it playing with friends, there are plenty of different community servers, and some people find skins and the ability to buy and trade them enjoyable too.

It's a classic instalment of a classic franchise, and honestly, even if you're not a fan of the shooting genre, this somehow finds a way to be different and more enjoyable than the rest.
