Not only that, but it appears that even if you buy a retail CD copy of
HL2, once you play online THAT COPY TOO becomes "Steam enabled" and
can no longer be played without connecting to Valve's site Look at
this page:
http://www.steampowered.com/index.p...5505,27362300,1050915714,91503900&support=yes
It says "Note: some Steam-enabled single-player games (such as
Half-Life 2) purchased at a retail store will allow offline play until
the user decides to play online or enable other Steam functionality.
From that point on, an Internet connection will be required."
The real question is WHY is Valve trying to lock everyone into
connecting to their site and ONLY using their server browser. If you
look at the Steam site, they seem to be planning on charging a
subscription fee for online play at some point.

the game as you would if it were on a CD. It works flawlessly for me. I've
been playing HL and CS via Steam with no problems whatsoever.

I've always assumed that the phrase was slang for your dick. Seeee, it
sticks out like a crank for your ass
As you can see, something that "bites" your ass-crank would be very
horrible indeed
