Half-Life 3 may finally be real - new evidence suggests it's nearly complete

No, it didn't I have a copy of it on CD right in front of me.

The Half-Life 2 CD version still requires Steam and a Steam account to register the key to.

No, it did not. I bought it on launch day. Steam was optional and the game ran fine without it. Either you weren't there, or you're attempting to lie, badly.

You're wrong. Half-Life 2 has always required a Steam account to play, even the CD version.

Is steam required to play half-life 2?
