Simply Awsome I've always been courios about Half_Life and Counter-Strike, and about a week ago, my cousin bout this package, and we played all day. Well, the very next day I went out and bought this, and I still havn't put it down! When you first start playing Counter-Strike, sure, some of the more experenced players will put you down for being a noob (someone new to Counter-Strike, but it's ment to be a strong insult), but after a few games, you'll find yourself getting better and better, and soon, you'll lose hte title of "Noob" "Nub" "Newb" ect. and then you'll really start to have fun. A good idea would be to play with a friend that has played before, especially if he/she has a clan, and then you can just scrim (play pratice games) with them. I play with my friends clan and I see my skill rapidly improving. Also, if you know someone else you just got this game, you could scrim with him.her for a while, and both your skills will improve. But that's not it. Aside from the great gameplay of CS, there's tons of maps to play on, and you can also download and make your own maps. Sure, making a map isn't exactly the easiest things in the world at first, but it just takes pratice. And remember, I havn't even SCRATCHED the surface known as the greatness of CS. Plus you get 4 other games, and these are all COMPLETE games. Half-Life is a great single-player game (I havn't tried multi-player on HL yet) and Opposing force and Blue Shift is a continuation of HL. And finally, you get Team Fortess Classic. Now, I havn't played this yet, but I suspect it to be just as great. Now what are you wating for? Go out there, get this, get ome friends to get this, get together, and SCRIM! Perhaps after you get enough pratice and you become semi-good, you can form a clan (A group of people that play together) and magnify the fun 100 times over!
