News has been going around about a rumored game Valve is making, and no, it's not Half-Life 3 or anything related. The new rumored in game is actually Counter-Strike related, the FPS that got Valve rolling, besides Half-Life, is getting a new game.
CS:GO will include new additions to the world of Counter-Strike with new maps, characters and weapons along with updated versions of maps and new gameplay modes.
Doug Lombardi has this to say about the new addition to Valve games:
"Counter-Strike took the gaming industry by surprise when the unlikely MOD became the most played online PC action game in the world almost immediately after its release in August 1999. For the past 12 years, it has continued to be one of the most-played games in the world, headline competitive gaming tournaments and selling over 25 million units worldwide across the franchise. CS: GO promises to expand on CS' award-winning gameplay and deliver it to gamers on the PC as well as the next gen consoles and the Mac."
CS:GO is being developed by Hidden Path Entertainment (Defense Grid, Counter-Strike: Source) and will be out in early 2012.
I can already hear the rage people will be having since this isn't anything Half-Life 3 related, and I would be one of them, but Counter-Strike was my first Valve/Steam game and I really enjoyed it, so I'm pretty excited for this new addition. This is my Call of Duty.
