Where death is final, and caution is a must

Article Abstract:

Sierra's Half-Life: Counter-Strike computer game is a mod, or modification of the original action game Half-Life. Whereas Half-Life was a single-player game, Counter-Strike is a multiplayer game. Since there is no resurrection of players in the game, the threat of death is ever-present, and gives the game tension and edge. The game's three missions entail the rescuing of hostages by counterterrorists, the evacuation of a V.I.P. by counterterrorists, or an effort to blow things up. The game stresses strategy and rewards shrewdness and caution as opposed to firepower and swiftness.
