    readme says:
    1.Extract the Half Life 2 folder anywhere you want.
    2.Create a shortcut of the hl2.exe file.
    3.Right click on shortcut and put -steam behind the last quotation mark.
    4.Double click on the shortcut and have fun

    what is -steam?
    i have tried to change the shortcut target but it says: the name"c:\half life 2\hl2.exe" specified in the target box is not valid. make sure the path and file name are correct.

    please help. big HL fan.

    The really neat thing about buying the game is it works and supports the people that made it.

    It depends on your perspective. In the sane world you have every right to back up your purchased media but the media companies quite the contrary so I wouldn't be all that surprised to see your account deactivated if using a copy.
