How to Get Console on Counter Strike Source
Counter Strike: Source is the remake of the original Counter Strike mod as its own standalone game. This version uses Valve's Source engine to streamline game effects and add new physics and options to the original game. One of the additions to the game is an in-game console interface that allows server administrators to change game parameters without needing to recompile the server. This console is a powerful tool that can be used to enable cheat command and completely change the game experience.
