===Counter-Strike series=== The [[Counter-Strike (series)|''Counter-Strike'' series]] is a series of first-person shooter originally developed by [[Minh Le]] and [[Jess Cliffe]] using the GoldSrc Engine as a mod for ''Half-Life''. Valve then hired them both, and the rights to the game were acquired by Valve. ====Counter-Strike==== ''[[Counter-Strike]]'' (commonly refered to as Counter-Strike 1.6) is a [[multi-player]] first-person shooter originally developed by [[Minh Le]] and [[Jess Cliffe]] as a mod for a game ''Half-Life'' (under the name ''[[Half-Life: Counter-Strike]]''). Valve eventually offered them both a job; they agreed and the rights to the game were acquired by Valve. The game was officially released in 2000. The game uses the GoldSrc Engine. ====Counter-Strike: Condition Zero==== ''[[Counter-Strike: Condition Zero]]'' is a multi-player first-person shooter released in 2004 developed by [[Gearbox Software]] and [[Turtle Rock Studios]]. It is a follow-up to the game ''Counter-Strike'', featurin updated character models, textures, maps and other graphical tweaks. The game also features a single-player campaign which comes as standalone game in the Steam library, labeled ''Counter-Strike: Condition Zero Deleted Scenes.'' ====== Counter-Strike Online ====== [[Counter-Strike Online]] is a [[multi-player]] first-person shooter developed by [[Nexon Corporation]]. Due to the way the CCP government handles game publishing, Valve needed to publish Counter-Strike via a third-party company based in China. Rather than having the game be wholey the same they allowed Chinese developers to work on the game & add their own unique spin to it. The game is very different from Counter-Strike with many unique game modes like the popular zombies game mode. The game would also later be released outside China too, under the moniker Counter-Strike Nexon: Zombies but it would change names once more to Counter-Strike Nexon: Studio. ====Counter-Strike: Source==== ''[[Counter-Strike: Source]]'' is a multi-player first-person shooter released in 2004 as a complete remake of the original ''Counter-Strike'' using the Source Engine. As with the original game, the player is put in a team of Counter-Terrorists or Terrorists, competing against the opposing side. The teams have to complete different objectives, depending on the mode is chosen, in a series of rounds. ====Counter-Strike: Global Offensive==== ''[[Counter-Strike: Global Offensive]]'' is a multi-player first-person shooter released in 2012. It is a follow-up to the game ''Counter-Strike: Source''. It is essentially the same as previous ''Counter-Strike'' video games, with additional improvements and enhancements. It was also made available on the [[Xbox 360]]. ====== Counter-Strike Online 2 ====== Counter-Strike Online 2 is a [[multi-player]] first-person shooter released in 2013 and developed by [[Nexon Corporation]]. Due to the way the CCP government handles game publishing, Valve needed to publish Counter-Strike: Source via a third-party company based in China. Rather than having the game be wholey the same they allowed Chinese developers to work on the game & add their own unique spin to it. The game never released outside China, but many features from Counter-Strike Online 2 would make it into Counter-Strike: Global Offensive like monetized skins in the Arms Deal update. ====== Counter-Strike 2 ====== Counter-Strike 2 is a [[multi-player]] first-person shooter released in 2023. It is essentially a direct port of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive to the Source 2 engine & unlike other Counter-Strike entries, Counter-Strike 2 has fully overwritten the Counter-Strike: Global Offensive game, rather than being a standalone release.
