i am not sure but I do know that: -counter-strike uses the half-life engine -half-life comes pre-installed with counter-strike all you have to know is if counter-strike is a stand-alone game (which i believe it is) counter-strike contains "hl.exe" so you should be able to play it without half-life
Counter Strike is an online multiplayer game. You can get the grenade the same way you are able to get the guns. You purchase them before the round starts.
no
After you downloaded Counter Strike, you double click on the shortcut of the game (normally located at the desktop) and you should be able to play... If you meant "How to play and be a pro and Counter-Strike" , then I strongly suggest you follow veteran players' advice, practice, and look up at the Counter Strike Wiki.
It varies. Personally, I haven't been to Gamestop often but I think that the older Counter-Strike games may not be available as they may have been replaced with newer and higher demanded games. If you are lucky, you may be able to find Counter-Strike Source.
There are many ways to get "started" in Counter-Strike. Make sure that you installed the game properly and you should be able to play it... If you meant how to be good at it, then I would recommend to practice at becoming a good player, view the Counter-Strike Wiki, and look up for tutorials and tips from pros.
By hacking. Like being able to see through walls, unlimted health, etc.
You can try changing it in the settings of the game.Or if you really need to, you might be able to use 3DAnalyze.
No- it is loaded onto your "Steam" account so you can play whenever, whithout a disk.
If you are trying to increase the settings, your videocard may not be able to handle it.
It is possible to hack, but I highly discourage it, because if caught, you could be banned from all your games on Steam.Anyways, the game is easy enough that you wouldn't need to cheat.
Since I have both games, I may know the reason. Counter-Strike 1.6, Condition Zero, and other VALVE multiplayer games no longer has a supported network that allows players to play online. The World Opponent Network (WON) was shut down by VALVE and the online system was replaced by Steam around 2004. Thankfully, some dedicated people were able to find a solution to this problem by implementing WON2 (although it is strongly disliked by VALVE) or decided to pay a fee to promote their servers. However, is is only seen in the non-steam versions of Counter Strike 1.6 instead of Condition Zero since CZ is not well liked by the CS community compared to CS 1.6 (as it is a classic).
