Halflife: Counter-Strike


The History of Counter-Strike

How CS went from nothing to our most-played online title

Words: GamesRadar US

Beta 3.0

While the preceding releases focused mostly on small additions, beta 3 brought features that would help define the game: the knife; the Kevlar and helmet combination; and the Radio system that would make “Stick together, team” a gamer’s catchphrase.

Notable Addition
P90

Did you know?
Accurate even when jumping and strafing, the P90 was one of the most popular weapons in Counter-Strike between Beta 3 and Beta 5.
