I can't see the Steam stats from work, but last time I checked, CS 1.6 and
CS:S were jockeying back and forth for their position on the steam stats
(Note: This was before TF2 was free).

You''re right, it's a waste of resources to continue work on a 14-year old
engine.  They should drop support for it and concentrate solely on the
Orange Box 2009 engine, which are used by their newer games (HL2:DM, DOD:S,
CS:S, TF2...).

However, then you'd just complain they dropped support for it and stopped
selling it.
