I've never understood the appeal of counterstrike. It's a general FPS multiplayer game, except when you die you have to sit around until everyone else dies and someone wins. And you apparently have to buy guns of some reason. I dunno. Gimmie something that I can respawn in plz. I've been playing more Team Fortress than DoD at the moment, but since I cannot seem to connect to nine out of ten TF2 servers, I might swap back.
I think most people like it because the "realism" of the game makes them feel like badass counter-terrorist agents. Add a gun like the AWP, and they even get to ruin the match for everyone else while calling them noobs.
But I always considered DoD to have more realism, and more importantly, have deeper, balanced gameplay.
Mm. Yeah. TF2 looks so amazingly good. Have you seen Valve's mock interviews with the Heavy, Soldier and Engineer? So funny.
Sorry for the blurriness of the following pictures, but Portal is alive in Baltimore! This quartet showed up at the art university's Halloween bash. Massive cheers from basically everyone on the floor went out to 'em.


Again, I apologize for the bluriness. I had a low shutter speed on at the time. The girl's portal-gun looked really authentic!
