I started my Steam account in 2004(?) because it was required to do so even though I bought the DVD-ROM version of HL2. Imagine my rage when it also forced me to update – I was on dial-up at the time.
Ohh man, i am right there with you. It was the same for me with CS however I already had it installed. I wanted to update to 1.6 but I had steam installed and it forced me to update steam before I could update CS. I know they had a lot of growing pains but they eventually did it right due to our struggle.
