1) Is it cheap to buy?
2) How many expansions are there?
3) Is it full of hackers?
4) Is it fun?
5) Is there any way to DL it and play it online without buying it? (You don't have to say how, we can talk on AIM.)

TY. :)

1. 10$, you need to buy anything that contains a half-life cd key. best bet would be half-life classic plain and simple or an expansion pack (they arent really sold anymore)

2. C-S is a mod for half-life and if you are able to play c-s online then you are automatically able to play all the other mods. there are at least 10 good ones out, take day of defeat or natural selection.

3. No, there is an anti-cheater system that bans cheaters from online-play for 1 year and they would need to buy a new cd-key to play again. also cheaters can easily be banned from servers by admins. either way there arent many cheaters around, though cheaters arent always easy to distinguish from very good legit players.

4. yes, but it gets more fun the better you get since as a good player you spend more time alive than dead. this is also why c-s is addicting and also full of nerd boxes and finally full of very good player or very good nerd boxes.

5. you always need a cd key bought from a store, just buy half-life for like 10 bucks. then download steam on steampowered.com and you can download all games and mods for half-life including counter-strike etc. (no extra money to be paid)

You can get cheap CS/CZ key packages on ebay for 10-15$.

CS Is fully downloadable, as is the rest of the games powered by steam :)

The VAC AC system ****ing sucks. There are tons of hackers, but I play mostlly on our private server, so we don't really encounter too many :)

The site you would download it from is www.steampowered.com( Download Steam ). After you buy a Half-Life CD-Key from ebay or Wal-Mart, just go to www.steampowered.com, download steam, and then put in your cd-key and you'll be able to download Counter-Strike and many other official and third party half-life mods(Like Day of Defeat and Natural Selection). Just remeber to make sure that Counter-Strike or any other mod is finished downloading( The Steam icon will stop moving ); If its not all the way finished downloading you may run into a few poblems. Also, if you have problems with hackers(ing) you can always download Cheating-Death and join Cheating-Death servers which will reduce the amount of hackers that you run into.(google "Cheating-Death")

CZ is another game.
And if you buy a CD-Key off eBay make sure the seller has sold many before and they all worked (for Steam!). Or just buy a Steam-Account.
