[PC] World's favorite online shooter is shuffled up

Major changes are on the cards for Counter-Strike: Source, with plans to enhance the radar readout on the player's screen and tweaks to the online shooter's cash-based weapon selection system in the works. Additionally, some of the lesser-played maps will get a graphical facelift, as Valve plans to add in High Dynamic Range lighting to increase their appeal.

Counter-Strike's beautifully balanced and straightforward gameplay is exactly what makes it the most played shooter ever created. The original game, commonly referred to as Counter-Strike 1.6, was a modification of the first Half-Life and is still played today by thousands of dedicated gamers - seven years after its release.
