PAX: Get ready! Here's some gameplay from Counter Strike: Global Offensive!

Kotaku, an awesome site for any gaming news, has been given a sneak peek at what the Counter Strike team will be showing this weekend at PAX and at the upcoming Eurogamer Expo and it looks awesome. Not only do we get to see the first trailer showing gameplay but we got a bunch of new details about the game! Man does the gameplay look great to me. It totally looks like it will feel almost exactly like the old game did and even the new graphics look great, but hold the same style that we all loved in Counter Strike. Not to mention CROSS PLATFORM GAMING. Yup, it looks like those of us with Xbox 360's will be able to face off against you PS3 lovers! I'm getting excited. Here's some of the cool details we heard.

New Weapons:
 - Decoy Grenade
 - Molotov
 - IMI Negev
 - Taser
 - Tec-9
 - Mag-7
 - Sawed Off

VIDEO GAMES: What we know about CS:GO

So the other day Valve announced that they're going to release their newest Counter Strike game titled, Counter Strike: Global Offensive in early 2012. We also now have some information on the game via G4.

Here's the things I think are most important:
 - Some of our favorite old maps are returning i.e. Dust, Dust2, Inferno, Nuke, etc.
 - A greater variation of weaponry with differentiated effects depending on the type of weapon used.
 - This is cool, "Decoy Grenades" can be thrown to emit gun sounds and the like in order to confuse enemies.

There's more information in the full story which you can read HERE
Still no official release date for CS:GO other than early 2012.
