Which CS do I need?

[DarkVirus]

Considering the fact I stopped playing Sierra games years ago Im ignorant on the topic. Do I need Counter Strike Ground Zero or is Counter Strike an "expansion" to Half Life? Please explain so I can join the leetness  

[Yoni]

It's a Half Life mod, freely downloadable from, well, somewhere.

To play on vL.com you need the latest (I think), which is 1.6 (I think)

[Adron]

You need CS 1.5 to play on vl.com. CS 1.6 hasn't been released yet.

[Naem.]

You can get CS 1.5 from www.counter-strike.net.

Btw, CS 1.6 is called Condition Zero, not Ground Zero  

[Etheran]

CS 1.6 is not called condition zero.  Condition zero is a new game entirly.  CS 1.6 will have a few new guns, updated graphics (explosions from CS:CZ), and a riot sheild (fun fun).  Although they are trying to make the games very similar, they aren't the same thing.  I think the CS 1.6 beta is out, if you wanna go check and see.

[Naem.]

Oops.

CS 1.7 is Condition Zero.
