What are the differences between CS 1.6 and CS:GO? A simple bullet point comparison similar to What are the differences between CS 1.6 and CS:S? would be nice.

The way you've worded this question makes it sound like you're asking for opinions and discussion. The question you linked to just lists the differences; if you're looking for the same sort of thing, I'd recommend limiting the question to just, "What differences are there between CS:GO and X?" Until then, I've voted to close. – fbueckert Nov 27 '12 at 15:51
I edited the question so that it is a comparison between CS:GO and CS 1.6. Then one could compare CS:GO and CS:S by looking at both questions. – Konsta Nov 27 '12 at 17:21
Much better! This is much more answerable than the original question. – fbueckert Nov 27 '12 at 17:26
After editing it I tried to flag it in order for an admin to see notice. Is that the way to inform an admin? If so, I believe I failed to flag, since it told me that I had 10 flags open today, even after I thought I had flagged it. – Konsta Nov 27 '12 at 17:28
That is indeed correct. Now we just need to be patient until it gets the number of people seeing it who agree it should be re-opened. – fbueckert Nov 27 '12 at 17:47

First of all, there are many differences attributed between CS1.6 and CS:GO. The most important thing to note is the engine; it's improved dramatically over the past 9 years (CS1.6 was released in 2003, CS:GO in 2012). Namely, CS1.6 uses the GoldSrc engine, which is a heavily modified Quake engine, and CS:Go uses the Source engine.

I will add more.

Self comment: I believe the animations have improved drastically from the orginial game; I abhorred the reload animations within both CS:S and CS1.6. CS:GO gave me the satisfaction I needed – Retrosaur Dec 19 '12 at 17:12
