Counter Strike: Global Offensive confirmed for Summer launch!


Earlier this week at Microsoft's showcase event, Counter Strike: Global Offensive developer has confirmed that the highly anticipated CS:GO is set to launch this Summer for the PC, PS3, and Xbox 360. Hurray! Now for the bad news, cross-platform play is dropped from CS:GO. So many things could be explored with cross-platform play, and it would have been one of the first FPS games to support it, but it probably would just take too much time, work and effort, even for Valve developers.

I'm not too bothered about not getting any cross-platform love from the developers, since I am, and will be playing anything on the PC. However, it would still be really cool to be able to play with other peoples who are on their consoles, and to see how the game-play will turn out. I guess this is kind of a good thing since the developers would be able to focus more on the development for each platform.

Sign up for the beta for CS:GO here!

  9. YES. Finally a good FPS for the 360 coming out! Was getting worried that all the good FPS's would be going to only PC after I played the Blacklight beta

  10. We all know what would happen if cross-platform stuff was a reality.

    All the console players would be butthurt as they get destroyed by the PC gamers.

  20. Hey there! I know this is kinda off topic however , I'd figured I'd ask.

    Would you be interested in exchanging links or maybe guest authoring a blog post or vice-versa?
    My blog goes over a lot of the same topics as yours and I believe we could greatly benefit from each other.

  21. Hi would you mind stating which blog platform you're working with? I'm looking to start my own blog soon but I'm having a difficult time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs and I'm looking for something unique.

    P.S My apologies for being off-topic but I had to
    ask!
