I think its more of like playing that CS and CS:S map called blahhh. You go around doing your team deathmatch thing and right when you dont expect it some ****ing scary ass face comes right at your screen and disapeers. YOU NEVER SEE IT COMMING :o  and if youve played that map dont tell me you havent crapped your pants when youve turned around to check your back and theres the face right in front of your screen for a second.

There is a story behind it, and its not stuff popping out at you a lot.. I don't want to go into it and ruin it for anyone..


I'd recommend you get it :)

I dunno, I played the multiplayer demo way back when they were giving out those pre-order MP keys, and I wasn't really impressed.  Hows the single player?

I played a ways into it and so far its really really good.  I really like the way they do the scaryness.  Its not always just things popping out at you like Doom3, it's actually kinda creepy at times.  And the gun fights are great too.

Scary /= startling

Well, now that I have some money, I might get it. I did throw in some money on a copy of Quake 4 with my friends. We will see how Quake fares this generation first....

CS:S zombies would be fun if people wouldn't make it their mission to be as lame as they possibly can. If only people wouldn't turn off the anticamp on their servers.

... lame... off... anticamp...

Maybe it's lame without anti-camp? Just some speculation if every server does it, since I haven't got the space for CS:S until my new Harddrive arrives(CURSES UPS!)

You mean maybe it's lame with anticamp? It certainly is without, since the CTs will always climb up somewhere and shoot zombies down that try to climb after them. But they keep losing anyway, so it'd probably be way unbalanced with anticamp. Maybe if the regen rate is lowered so you can't just stand there and keep taking the shots.

No, I was asking that because you said that nobody plays with anti-camp and I have yet to play zombies, but thank you for explaining the logic behind the side you disagree with. Got my new harddrive today so now I have space for CS:S again :D.
