Counter-Strike: Global Offensive

A tactical first-person shooter where Terrorists and Counter-Terrorists play objective-based rounds such as bomb defusal and hostage rescue. Each round you buy weapons with money earned earlier, so the economy matters as much as aim. Matches are played online against other players. Is it your kind of game?
