Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS: GO) is a first-person shooter video game, which is a part of the Counter-Strike series. It was announced to the public on August 12, 2011, and is developed by Valve Corporation and its partner, Hidden Path Entertainment. The game was later released on August 21, 2012 for the Playstation 3, Xbox 360, Microsoft Windows and OS X and Linux later as a downloadable title.
Counter-Strike: Global Offensive uses the latest version of the Source engine and is not built out of Counter-Strike: Source. After the success of the previous game, Valve wanted the younger set to suit both casual and competitive community, including a matchmaking system and support for dedicated servers.
There are 8 new weapons in the new Counter Strike, and there are several changes to weapons returning, for the firepower, rate of fire, accuracy and speed of movement. They keep the same basic attributes and are officially considered the "successor".
At the launch of the Global Offensive had a total of 16 official maps: 8 updated classic maps and 8 new maps for the Arsenal game mode.
This is a game you play online; even though you have to buy it, I think it's worth it!
Just try it and you will see that you will love it ;)
