WTF is going on with HL and steam?
 

I dont know wtf they are doing, but i see the cs update at 340 mb or so and that's all cool. but, they have a full install @ 800+mb and i dont get wtf it's for.

i've heard people that this collects personal info and stuff.

anyone have any info on this steam thing?

www.steampowered.com

search for the numerous threads that will explain all

I don't know about the rest of it, but I read on www.penny-arcade.com that the info collecting is a hoax. I can't remember what they said it was, but if you search you can find the article. It's about a week and a half old.

Its not spyware

The 800 meg install includes the files for day of defeat, cs, tfc, etc. Thats why.
