lately I have just been chillin, playing on Vause seing as I am a moderator there, but I was watching some youtubers and it seems every youtuber from L.A to Tokyo is playing CS:GO so I googled it and it was from 2012, So I was wondering, why is CS:GO such a popular game, I also put a poll so you could vote which game do you think is better.

Not at all. It won't have the same kinds of effects culturally.

Finding the number of units sold for CS:GO is difficult since there's no definitive statistic, but this reddit post states that the month of May 2014 had unique players playing CS:GO, which puts my personal estimate of total sales at approximately 6 million units.
Meanwhile, Mojang directly tells us that Minecraft has sold 16.8 million units.

Does CS:GO cater to a competitive demographic that has a lot of overlap with MCGamer? Yes.
Will CS:GO surpass Minecraft in terms of sales and cultural impact? Unlikely.

I still don't know what CS:GO really is. Is it Counterstrike in Minecraft?
