There has been this debate ever since Source came out. Which one is better?

1.6
Probably the better gameplay, seeing as spraying is harder to master. It takes longer to get good at this game, so the gap between "Noobs" and "Pros" is pretty high. The graphics are not as good as Source. The players say that this game has less "noobs" and that CS:S is full of hackers. However, 1.6 DOES have more hackers.

Source
Better Graphics and Engine. Typcial sequel versus prequel battle. However, to play this game you need to use Steam/ to play it. This causes many errors, and people say that Source gets less update from Valve. Steam lags the game down as it uses the internet.

So then, which game do YOU think is better?

Although I wasn't hardcore player of 1.6, when I got CS:S I instantly preferred it. As I don't play it a lot when I do I just wanna have a good game and so I find Source better for that, good graphics as well.

I agree. What is your IGN and what servers do you recommend? I am playing the 24 hour ones, but they are too repetitive.
