As can be expected with world events of this magnitude, we’re starting to see a lot of bin Laden turning up (post-mortem) in the video game world. Over at GameBanana, “Fletch” has created a FY (close quarters) map for Counter-Strike: Source, based on the site of Osama bin Laden’s last stand:
Here’s what the author has to say about his work:Based on Osama’s compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan.
- Game: Counter-Strike: Source
- Spawnpoints: 32
Map may be used as a base for a bomb or hostage map at a later stage. 3D skybox will also be added when/if I have time.
What a lot of people don’t seem to understand is that the only thing this map has in common with Osama is location. I can see how people would think it is in bad taste, but honestly if that’s your opinion you may as well protest the whole game (as well as many others).
Anyway, on to the real update. de-abbottabad is close to completion. I find it alot more enjoyable than this (fy_) version. The idea is that the T’s have returned to destroy sensitive information before it can be located and taken away.
He goes on to mention that there may be a CS 1.6 version of the map in the works as well. The map is making its rounds now, so go get your copy!
