Counter Strike

Counter-Strike (also known as Half-Life: Counter-Strike or Counter-Strike 1.6)^[4] is a first-person shooter video game developed by Valve. It was initially developed and released as a Half-Life modification by Minh “Gooseman” Le and Jess Cliffe in 1999, before Le and Cliffe were hired and the game’s intellectual property acquired. Counter-Strike was released by Valve for Microsoft Windows in 2000. The game is the first installment in the Counter-Strike series. Several remakes and ports have been released on Xbox, as well as OS X and Linux.

Set in various locations around the globe, players assume the roles of counter-terrorist forces and terrorist militants opposing them. During each round of gameplay, the two teams are tasked with defeating the other by the means of either achieving the map’s objectives or eliminating all of the enemy combatants. Each player may customize their arsenal of weapons and accessories at the beginning of every match, with currency being earned after the end of each round.
