Counter Strike On Vista

Since I'm a big fan of FPS games, I was thinking about getting Counter Strike. However I am worried about compatibility issues. My Rig is : Windows Vista, 8800GT 512MB, 3GB RAM, 320 GB hardrive. Have there been any issues with counter strike source on vista or any of those computer parts? thanks

Also, would Gogamer be a good place to buy CSS?

it will be fine really CSS is my favorite game probaly of all time right now

Just download it off of steam its much easier

(if you dont have steam go to steampowered.com)

Nope, no problems, it works just fine.(Q6600, 4gb RAM, 8800GT, Vista HP)

And why buy it from there and not steam?

Yes, will definitely run perfectly.

It'll run great. It was the first game that I got for Vista. I'd recommend buying the CSS/Garry's Mod bundle off of Steam for $25. I'm not sure on this, but you might be able to get Day of Defeat with CSS when you buy it retail, so you might want to consider that as well.grim1813

Yeah, retail I got it with DoD:S and HL2: DM for only $20.

I actually already ordered it from gogamer w/ day of defeat and Hl2 DM, for $20, would that be ok?gamerguy845

Yeah, you will just have to add your CD keys to your Steam account. After that you can feel free to toss the disks :P

Yep, you absolutely can't play them without Steam. Well you can when Valve is out of the picuture (not too soon) because they said they will release patches for every game to make them standalone.

Counter-Strike should come with Steam. Unless you're talking about 1.0 from who-knows how long ago. In which case you download Steam and enter the CD-Key located on your case.

what do you mean "it comes with steam" I am buying Counter Strike Source from gogamer.com, like I perviously asked, will this effect me because of steam?

Steam is required to play CSS. I dont see the big deal. Just install it. Steam is Free.dieasgrey

ok so I have steam installed on my computer with my account. Now when I get my copy from gogamer, I'm all set, correct?
