Counter-Strike: Source is a recreation of Counter-Strike inside the Source engine, and the third game of the Counter-Strike franchise. Released in October 2004, it was the first Source game to be released, leading Half-Life 2 by some weeks as a Steam pre-order bonus. It features the Counter-Strike bot, the precursor to Left 4 Dead's AI.

As opposed to Counter-Strike, there is no Assasination game mode and no riot shield included. Included are the Hostage and Bombing scenario. A beta version, porting the game to the Orange Box engine (Source 2009), was finished and released Jun 23, 2010 for PC and Mac OS X, replacing the older (Source 2006 version, unofficially called v34/1.0.0.34). The game now features 147 new achievements, a domination and revenge system, MVP Awards, and a new scoreboard.

Limitations

Bug:A bug, which hasn't been fixed for over 16-17 years (around 2006) since the reintroduction of Select Class (alternatively, selecting characters), SAS has a weaker weapon throwing due to unconfigured ValveBiped.
