Half Life, bloody steam!

[lat3ncy]

Since I moved house 2 weeks ago and am waiting (forever?) for BT to give me a phone line. I have no net access and hence steam won't load. This seems to mean I cannot load even a single-player game of Half Life!?

Is there any way around this or do I have to wait to get internet before I can play a game by myself??

if you've still got halflife installed, then just make a shortcut to

C:\program files\Sierra\Half-Life\hl.exe

and thats it

unfortunately steam swallowed my halflife installation whole.

ive seen posts on the steam forum about this issue, looks like there may be a fix soon. probably have net access by then though
