The look of Counter Strike: Global Offensive shows up far more real than the previous version. As the scenarios are the same, the idea for Valve to rebuild the old classic worked perfectly. Thus, that fans who could prove more reluctant to change felt more at ease.
The characters are also more realistic. Both the clothes and the weapons - which is obviously now hanging in character - give an air of new game to fans of the series. The system also yields light and shade compliments. A curious fact is that your own shadow can deliver the place where you are hiding. Even the puddles of blood - that were a jumble of pixels - gave rise to a rounded shape very realistic.
And in a comparison between versions for PCs and consoles (Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3) is difficult to notice a big difference between the graphs. However, with a more in depth analysis, you can see that PCs still take a little advantage.

A more agile CS
The gameplay that popularized the franchise stays intact. The targeting system is still limited to only zooms in rifles, the jumps are still limited and crouch is one of the best ways to deceive and surprise your enemies. Since the movement was a little faster than normal, giving the feeling of characters lighter.
What was also agile was to find a room for their matches. Unlike previous Counter Strike, you need not look for a server to start the contest, simply visit the Quick Match option that you are automatically sent to a room available.
The downside is that you can not choose the matches and the needed maps. In other words, you just fall in a game already rolling and the scenarios already determined by other players. In these cases, the ideal is to create a game and invite your friends.

Keyboard and mouse on consoles
Counter Strike has always been a popular franchise in PCs And just can not say it was exclusive to consoles as the Xbox version of the game received in 2004 - which ended up not being a sales success. But Valve decided to bet their chips on the current generation consoles and released via DLC versions of Global Offensive for Xbox 360 and PS3.

And if that was not enough the perfect conversion, the game received support keyboard and mouse for both versions. In our tests, the PlayStation 3 version was very well suited to accessories. The game has options to set the mouse sensitivity and even reverse the shaft.
The limitations somewhat frustrated
If you're an old fan of the franchise, you know that Counter Strike has never had many game modes and support for up to 64 players in a single match. With that, there's nothing to be disappointed in Global Offensive. But if you grew up with games like Call of Duty and Battlefield, faced with a game that has only four game modes and ten players per room, can be very frustrating.
Another negative fact is the few game options and offline single player. There are still players who prefer to play alone until you have some experience. CS: GO even has a mode where you can set up a match full of bots (players controlled by the "machine"), ideal to train your skills, but you also do not like very much.

conclusion
Counter Strike: Global Offensive Classic is back with a new look. For longtime fans of the franchise, there is nothing to complain about, because Valve has managed to put virtually the same game a little faster and with fewer bugs. But if you are adept at more robust games like CoD and Battlefield, CS GO can cause some frustration due to the limitations of the game.
