====Xbox reception====
The Xbox edition received mixed reviews from critics in comparison to the original game. On the topic of graphics, Matthew Kato from ''[[Game Informer]]'' wrote that there were "graphical updates here and there" and mentioned the game's inclusion of weather.<ref name="GameInformer Xbox" /> [[Greg Kasavin]] of ''GameSpot'' felt that the visuals weren't extraordinary and not enough to make the game "good-looking".<ref name="GameSpot Xbox" /> ''IGN''<nowiki/>'s Aaron Boulding mentioned that they were "the biggest disappointment." He commented that the environments were noteworthy in design, but "not in their overall look and level of detail."<ref name="IGN Xbox" />

The [[Artificial intelligence|AI]] technology was a surplus for the Xbox edition, because of critics praising for its human-like behavior. Kato mentioned that the bot AI contained some "human-esque traits" and that it would start to understand the map after some rounds.<ref name="GameInformer Xbox" /> Kasavin found it surprising that the bots weren't following real-life tactics of terrorists or counter-terrorists, but rather mimic the actions of a player.<ref name="GameSpot Xbox" /> He pointed out that they would [[Camping (video games)|camp]] at a certain place and follow the orders of a player, such as following them or holding a position.<ref name="GameSpot Xbox" /> 

Many critics also highlighted [[Xbox Live]] as one of the main reasons to purchase the game. Kasavin noted that it runs properly, with hosted matches able to hold 10 players.<ref name="GameSpot Xbox" /> Boulding expressed that "online play over Xbox Live is going to be the greatest reason to buy this game" and that it's convenient.<ref name="IGN Xbox" />
