Im inclined to agree......
Steam is possibly the worst thing to happen to half-life. Such a buggy pile of useless crap.

Yeah, they say they're gonna use Steam to randomly check your cd-key when you're in the single player and that without that check it won't run. Kinda sucks for the few people without internet.

Wow... Valve sure has become a bunch of nazis....
I wonder how well that will go over with the public and whether or not it will cause Valve to chage their stance on things...

WineX seems pretty neat. I'm glad that Steam works with it, because I've been having a blast in HL2.
