On April 12th, 2000, Valve announced that the Counter-Strike developers and Valve had teamed up. Since then, Counter-Strike has been available to buy. The final major version of Counter-Strike is Version 1.6, released on September 15, 2003, few days after Steam launched.

Trivia
- The pirated copies of 1.6 in Russia, most of Asia and several other countries had a menu theme that is not in the Steam version. The most frequently used track was the main theme made from
Condition Zero Deleted Scenes by Zak Belica, as well as cut-down version which was also played on the Xbox version of 
Counter-Strike[1].
