Thanks to GamerFeed for reprinting the press release revealing that Valve's Xbox conversion of team-based tactical FPS Counter-Strike has now gone gold, and will be available in stores on November 18th. The console version boasts "seven never-before-seen multiplayer maps, one new counter-terrorist team, one new terrorist team and downloadable maps via Xbox Live", and GameSpot have a hands-on preview that rates the conversion as "a tight incarnation of the PC shooter", and mentions "subtle tweaks to [level] layout that will force veteran players to learn some new tricks." The Microsoft press release also claims: "The secure environment of Xbox Live ensures that gamers will experience nothing but cheat-free play."

At last!
Now we can get rid of all the filthy Counterstrike players from the LAN parties!

This is a day of joy! Microsoft did something good for once! I almost feel like I should thank them :D

Now...how do we make all counterstrike players go get XboXes instead of infesting the otherwise decent computergaming society?
