As a long time fan of the Counter-Strike series, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS:GO) is a faithful modern updated version of this series beloved by many. Is it perfect? No, but neither were its predecessors. Every iteration of Counter-Strike comes with their own flaws. I will say that almost all of the nearly 2000 hours that I have logged onto this game were logged in a very narrow perspective of only playing in its competitive multiplayer active maps. That being said, I thoroughly enjoyed and continue to enjoy that aspect of this game. With its emotional up and downs, it puts players into experiencing the complexities of a team based game.

If you are a fan of first person shooters (FPS) or would like to dabble into the world of FPS, CS:GO would be one of the best games to jump in with both feet, or dip your toe in, whichever metaphor works for you. And if you have a fondness for being competitive, I believe this will satisfy your cravings of being the best as well as feeding the rage of never being good enough. Regardless, I believe this is a great game, with its own unique faults and can be enjoyed by anyone with a willingness to better themselves at it.

Good luck out there!
