Minh "Gooseman" Le created Counter-Strike along with Jess Cliffe, but Minh did most of the actual programming Jess Cliffe is the "voice of CS" Counter-Strike was bought out by Valve Software after it became the #1 Online FPS ever, and continues to be so, dwarfing every other FPS by such a large factor that even if you combined all players and servers and their playing time from ALL other FPS games, they still do not manage to come close to the numbers of Counter-Strike, not even 50%, and perhaps not even 30%. There is nothing quite like it in the FPS world On Mon, 17 Jan 2005 00:08:25 +0000, richy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Richard Welsh wrote: > > >-- > >[ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] > > You are right, Jess Cliff and another person created a MOD to Half-Life > >called Counter-Strike.
