Counter-Strike's Cross-Platform Play is Dead
Shame! But let's learn to deal with the fact that Counter-Strike: Global Offensive won't enable PS3 players to pwn Xbox 360 players and both of them pwn PC players... all at the same time. Which, let's face it, was the game's unique selling point.

That's the conclusion from the Beta though.

Valve's Chet Faliszek is the man to break the news, "The beta has proved we want to update not just the beta, but the game itself post-launch frequently on the PC," he says before continuing, "To do that we need to separate the platforms so one doesn't hamstring the other. So for that, we have removed the idea of cross-platform play -- essentially make all platforms stronger by not mixing them."
