Half Life 2 ??

[WWS]

I bought Half Life 2 and am unable to play. Keeps giving me the error unable to load library from steam.dll, what is this crap??

Is this game for online play only??

an online connection is required for gameplay

Thats the 1 thing I hate about steam.

you need to activate it online, no exception, you have to do it.

You have to have a online connection, because steam has to decrypt the .gcf, and you have to be fully update in order to play offline.
