Think of it as your computer working without a motherboard chipset.

But if it's not connected to the net and already has all the files?
It would really suck if you couldn't play it if you dont have an internet connection.

you don't need internet to load steam, its possible to get it to work being offline.

Irony, this word must be known to you...
But of what use will steam be to you if you're offline? :bucky!:
Pointless

Man, Steam isn't that bad! I don't see why people complain about it. Dissmissing HL2 - a very anticipated game - just because of it seems a bit OTT in my opinion.

Let's wait and c when the game is out... Depends on what exactly the Steam client is doin when runnin the game, I will prolly get a patch of some sort, if such a thing is released 2 circumvent the process... :dennis:

Why do you think that HL2 requires Steam to run? It is just being distributed over Steam as far as I know. You can either go buy HL2 boxed somewhere or you can download it from Steam. The pre-load is just loading up the textures, audio, and other files that they aren't going to change before the game goes gold. And even if it was designed to run only on Steam, which I'm not sure one way or the other way of, but don't believe, why are people so upset about the idea? I've used Steam before and it wasn't really that bad, why do some people hate it so much?
