Safety Information
About Photosensitive Seizures
A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed to
certain visual images, including  ashing lights or patterns that may appear in
video games. Even people who have no history of seizures or epilepsy may have
an undiagnosed condition that can cause these “photosensitive epileptic seizures”
while watching video games.
These seizures may have a variety of symptoms, including lightheadedness,
altered vision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of arms or legs,
disorientation, confusion, or momentary loss of awareness. Seizures may also
cause loss of consciousness or convulsions that can lead to injury from falling
down or striking nearby objects.
Immediately stop playing and consult a doctor if you experience any of these
symptoms. Parents should watch for or ask their children about the above
symptoms—children and teenagers are more likely than adults to experience
these seizures.
The risk of photosensitive epileptic seizures may be reduced by sitting farther
from the television screen, using a smaller television screen, playing in a well-lit
room, and not playing when you are drowsy or fatigued.
If you or any of your relatives have a history of seizures or epilepsy, consult a
doctor before playing.
Other Important Health and Safety Information The Xbox Instruction Manual
contains important health and safety information that you should read and
understand before using this software.
Avoid Damage to Your Television
Do not use with certain televisions. Some televisions, especially front- or rear-
projection types, can be damaged if any video games, including Xbox games, are
played on them. Static images presented during the normal course of gameplay
may “burn in” to the screen, causing a permanent shadow of the static image to
appear at all times, even when video games are not being played. Similar damage
may occur from static images created when placing a video game on hold or
pause. Consult your television owner’s manual to determine if video games can be
played safely on your set. If you are unable to  nd this information in the owner’s
manual, contact your television dealer or the manufacturer to determine if video
games can be played safely on your set.

Your Mission
Welcome.
The global arena is rife with con ict. Underground terrorist
organizations willing to risk their lives for political change
are at war with national and international peacekeeping
organizations in dozens of hot spots around the world.
Choose to defend the innocent as a counter-terrorist or
wreak havoc as a terrorist. Read on to get the knowledge
you need to be effective in the  eld.
Get ready to move out. Your team needs you.
Lock and Load
First, identify yourself. Create a player pro le. Once you
create a pro le, you can access the Main Menu.
From the Main Menu, choose Training to learn how to play
Counter-Strike ™. Play a single-player game of Counter-Strike
with computer-controlled players (bots), or play a multiplayer
game of Counter-Strike with your friends over Xbox Live ™
or System Link. Choose options to adjust your controller
scheme, audio, and online settings. You can also select a
different player pro le or create a new one.
Counter-Strike automatically signs in to Xbox Live with
your last gamertag (account name) at the game’s start.
Turn auto sign-in on or off from the Xbox Dashboard. To use
auto sign-in, your
account must not
have a pass code.
Training
Training familiarizes you with being a terrorist or counter-
terrorist, including tutorials on weapons purchase,
hostage rescue, and bomb placement and defusing. Some
additional tips follow.
Crouch Jump
Press A to jump. While in the air, hold the left trigger
to crouch. This move lets you reach certain ledges not
otherwise accessible.
Weapon Cycling
Pressing Y cycles among your primary and secondary
weapons and knife. If you have purchased grenades, cycle
through them by pressing b.
Alternate Fire
Some weapons have special features, such as a silencer,
scope, or burst- re mode. To trigger these alternate  re
functions, press the B button.
Weapon Dropping and Swapping
Killed players drop their weapons. To swap your weapon for
one on the ground, look at the weapon while standing over
it and press X. To drop your current weapon, press b.
Radio Commands
Radio your teammates basic commands, such as orders
to back you up or hold position, using the D-pad. If you are
playing with bots, they acknowledge your commands and
follow them if they can.

Single Player
Play a single-player match to jump right into a battle with
computer-controlled opponents and teammates.
TO START A SINGLE-PLAYER MATCH
1. From the Main Menu, select Single Player.
2. To play a match with preset rules, select Beginner,
Standard, or Professional. Press A to select a map.
–or–
To play a custom match, select Custom, set your
match options, and then press A to select a map.
3. Press A to begin the match.
Battle Operations
When you begin a Counter-Strike match, you  rst select
whether to join the counter-terrorist or terrorist team. You
can also choose to be automatically assigned to a team or
to watch the game rather than playing (see page 10).
Rounds
A Counter-Strike match is made up of timed rounds. The
number of rounds is set by the game host. Each round
represents a single attempt by terrorists and counter-
terrorists to ful ll their objectives. One team usually
emerges from a round with a victory. The team with the
most round victories at the match’s end wins the match.
Terrorists and counter-terrorists start a round at different
insertion points and get freeze time to safely buy weapons
and equipment for the upcoming battle. Once freeze time is
up, players begin combat.
Buy Menu
The Buy Menu appears at each round’s start. From it, you
can buy primary weapons (ri es, heavy, and SMGs), pistols,
and equipment, such as Kevlar armor. Each player starts
with some cash to buy items and earns more by achieving
objectives (see the back cover). To choose an item, move
your left thumbstick to it and press A.
When you select a weapon on the Buy Menu, a chart
shows how that weapon compares to others in  repower,
rate of  re, accuracy, and reload speed. On this chart,
the  rst number listed for Ammo shows how much the
weapon’s ammo clip holds and the second shows how
much ammo you can have in reserve. Under Special, you’ll
 nd capabilities used by pressing the alternate  re button.
Buy primary weapon ammo by pulling the right trigger
repeatedly, and pistol ammo by pulling the left trigger
repeatedly. To close the Buy Menu, press B. To reopen it,
stand in a buy zone and click the left thumbstick.
Be aware—the game’s host sets a limited time period to
buy gear. You cannot buy items after this time has passed.

Spectator Mode
If you are killed, you enter spectator mode, where you
can observe the  ght from different players’ perspectives.
Switch which player you watch by pressing B; switch

In third-person view, you can move the camera with the
right thumbstick.
Scenarios
In Counter-Strike , you participate in two types of scenarios:
hostage-rescue and demolition.
Hostage-Rescue
In hostage-rescue scenarios, the terrorist team has taken
a group of civilians hostage.
§ Counter-terrorists succeed by bringing all living hostages
to the rescue zone or eliminating all of the terrorists.
§ Terrorists succeed by preventing the hostage rescue or
eliminating all of the counter-terrorists.
As a counter-terrorist, you see hostages on your radar as
blinking dots. Order hostages to follow you by approaching
them and pressing X. Lead hostages to the hostage-
rescue zone, which is marked and shows a rescue icon on
your HUD when you reach it.
Be aware—hostages are worth money. Counter-terrorists
gain money for contacting and extracting hostages, and
both sides lose money for injuring or
killing hostages.
Demolition
In demolition scenarios,
the terrorist team must
in ltrate a secure location
with a high-powered bomb
and detonate it.
§ Counter-terrorists succeed by defusing the bomb once
it has been planted, preventing the terrorists from
detonating the bomb until time runs out, or eliminating
all of the terrorists before the bomb is planted.
§ Terrorists succeed by planting the bomb at a bomb site
and preventing the counter-terrorists from defusing
it before it explodes, or eliminating all of the counter-
terrorists.
Each round, one of the terrorist team is randomly chosen
to carry the bomb. That person has a bomb icon on the
HUD. Teammates see the bomb as a red dot on their
radar, which blinks if the bomb is dropped. If you are at a
bomb site with the bomb, plant the bomb by pressing and
holding X. The bomb detonates after a delay. Evacuate
before it does—the blast radius is large.
As a counter-terrorist, you must defuse the bomb if you
 nd it has been planted. Do this by pressing and holding X
while you are near and looking down at the bomb. A bomb-
defuse kit speeds the process (see page 30).

Equipment
Your equipment includes grenades and other tools you’ll
need to complete your objectives.
Flashbang Grenade $200

is often used in hostage rescue. Don’t look at it when it goes off,
or you may be blinded yourself.
High-Explosive Grenade $300
The high-explosive grenade causes damage in a wide radius, and
it can damage you if you stray too close when it goes off. Get
distance between yourself and one of these.
