It's such a shame.. this was such a huge company in it's day.. it will be sadly missed.

[Gryph]

Yeah, this is sad news. Sierra was one of my favorite gaming companies for their awesome adventure games. Atleast the Sierra name will live on...damn Vivendi!! But most of those people left to make their own game studios or just retired so that's a good thing.

 

Here is where I read it a week ago.

I read it on CSnation.net a few days ago.

 

Truely a sad time.

You bring us too many good memories

[OverlordMondo]

I seem to remember them for something...oh well. I'm sure I liked whatever it was just as much as you guys! I'll miss them but forget them anyway...

[Chaotica]

Oh Sierra, oh the memories!

Anyone remember Kings Quest? Those games used to be awesome

[Smilee]

Bummer, that sucks. Great company that brought most of my favorite games.

This really sucks, Sierra made the great Counter-Strike. The best first person shooter that was ever made. This marks a sad day in the gaming scene.

 

PS: It's nice to see you back SgtSarros.

Well...Sierra just released it. It was made by Gooseman and his team... or something like that.

I definitely remember those games. And they ARE awesome, not used to be awesome.

Legend has it was just gooseman when it was first released. More team memberes as the mod picked up.

Counter-Strike was born on Gooseman the day Navy Seals mod for Quake 1 was created. Navy Seals grew under a different route that was known as Action Quake 2 then Action Half-Life. Gooseman decides to quit from the A-Team to create CS, then people began to pick it up. all of these happened to CS as a freely downloadable mod (you people need to see the older versions of the models ).

[Jjangthekid]

cs had a good run.. max 3-4 years?.. now its full of hackers..

 

i hope they could find some sort of way to block those out..

[Wizard]

I doubt the hacker theory now. Everyone is just extremely good now. Did you know you can shoot thru EVERY SINGLE WALL in DE_Nuke? Or shooting thru certain walls, doors and mostly all crates are shoot thruable. Example is de_nuke, cs_assualt (back entrance, and above the back entrance, the whole 2 walls before the back entrance) de_dust/de_dust2 (small cornors of each doorway). You learn alot from playing in CAL and lans about this game.

 

I agree the models for cs alpha were horride. Beta 7 / 1.3 is the best CS ever.
