Not sure if you guys read the stuff in the trailer. "*More *Maps", "*More *Game
Modes", "*More *Weapons".... Its "*More *of a glorified expansion pack" for
CS:S than a full game.  They probably just spent all their time porting the
game over to consoles.. and hopefully did it right this time.  Anyways..
CS:GO will sell like hotcakes and unless valve plans on hosting enough
servers for everyone that plays it -- there will be a need for community
based server... ranked or not.  Also, people love mods, wc3 mod for example
and there will be achievement servers and trade servers (to trade all of the
hats they will put in the game)  which the community will need to host.

--below is a rant...
The ONLY reason I see valve selling this game as a new game is so when they
release it for consoles it will not be as an old game (cs:s).  It gets a new
title and some new stuff.  This stuff... like maps, game modes, and weapons
have, in the past, always been DLC for games like TF2.  No one wants to buy
a game that is new to console but 7 years old... the solution, add some
stuff that would/should be DLC (free or not), slap a new name on it and
market it as the next big step in a line of otherwise great games.  Now if
CS:GO is free or extremely discounted for people that have CS:S... I could
see this as an attempt to expand their market/client base without hurting
their current client base.
