Umm, get your facts straight before you post your assumptions. YES, you will be able to play against other players, and YES, it will be ONLINE. If you would have read the review in the first place, you would not have to ask these questions. I even tried to make the review as easy to read as possible.

If you're hesitating about getting CS for Xbox then maybe you should search more on it. I would have to say that the game will be fun and it will probably be even better than the new CS on the PC, with or without a mouse. If you would have read the review, you would have found out that everyone is on the same closed server, which ensures that the players will not be able to hack. Also, since everyone will have the same required internet connection, nobody will be able to blame their losses on lag.
