i believe it will have steam on it. i remember reading when half life 2 comes out you can buy it over the internet and download it instead of going to a store. (i think)

which makes me wonder im sure half life 2 is going to be a big game, how would a steam member save a game?

yes HL2 will be associated with steam mainly for the updates and game server list features. You will be able to buy HL2 in store or on the internet. I personally like steam and the concept but it could have been implimented better. Bandwidth is their main problem causing lots of headaches on update days. Now if they incoorperated some sort of volluntary bit torrent system that would help alot.

What do you mean? Once you d/l it it installs like a normal CD game.

Doubt it. You can probably d/l once and then copy it, all you need are the four CD keys.
