It does not matter if it started as an expansive Half-life mod or not, counter strike franchise is the epitome of First Person Shooter genre. And Be it counter strike 1.6 or Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, it has always stayed on top of the competitive shooter scene. I should rather say at the top of the FPS E-sports scene.
Counter-Strike is all about nerve-wracking pressure vs trying to stay calm kind of game. It is the most competitive way of playing a Terrorist vs Counter terrorist game. There is no respawning during the rounds and so if you die, all you can do is sit your butt down and watch the game hoping your teammates will either eliminate the other team or defuse/detonate the bomb successfully.
Each map is well crafted with a lot of depth, you can snipe, assault, knife or blast your enemies out. The guns have their own recoil patterns that you can only learn with experience, also things like throwing a grenade or flashbang without flashing your teammates is something you need to learn in this game. Unlike most co-op FPS games, shooting is not everything here, grenades, smoke, and flashbangs are important to survive and fool your foes.
If you are addicted to FPS games and you like to brag about your shooting skills then Counter-Strike: Global Offensive should be your game(Unless you are in America and you have a school to attend, you know what I mean). If you fall hard on your face the first time, just tell yourself that its a game people play for years to master and one day you will “git gud”.
