Is Call of Duty 4 Online 4 better than Counter Strike?
- 10 Comment
When I bought Half Life 2 a few 3 or 4 years ago I inevitably started playing Counter Strike Source. Infact, it was a game I played almost exclusively for a long time (I bought BF2 but kept going back to CS). Counter Strike is without doubt one of the best online first person shooter games to come out in the last few years.
Since I got a PS3 last year I have bought 7 games yet the game I keep going back to and the game which I play almost all the time is Call of Duty 4. It’s sapping my time in much the same way Counter Strike has in the last few years.
That got me thinking about what is the better game? Granted COD4 came out a few years after Counter Strike however there are still a lot of similarities between the games.
So what do you think is the better game? Personally I think it’s hard to answer as there are things on both games which I wish were in the other. For example, the ranking system on COD4 is excellent in my opinion however I used to love the additional maps and mods that Counter Strike had (for example the amazing gun game mod).
I actually drew up a list of comparisons about what each games plus points however I soon realized that it was difficult to do this fairly as I was compariing the PC version of Counter Strike to the PS3 version of COD4. No doubt if I compared the PC version of COD4 to a console version of Counter Strike I would get the same arguments in reverse ie. PC games can be hacked and modified to make the games more friendly which means more hacks and maps for users.
Are there any COD4 players out there who used to by Counter Strike nuts? Do you think it’s fair to make a comparison between the two?

HI there,
I think it is a good comparison. I have played Counter Strike myself for years. Owned a servers called Deadly Bone with Zeroservers.net as my host. I still own a server with them but for Call of Duty. I COD4 has me hooked. I can’t speak about the PS3 but on the Xbox360 COD4 is assume. And yes same here not much worry about hacks with the console as with the PC. Thanks for sharing

It was restricted from ever reaching greatness by the idiots that infested it striaght away
