Valve Pushes Out Half-Life For Linux

Since I got the Valve Pack I was wondering where it would take me (with GNU/Linux). Reading forums made me a little sad, as most people believed only Source games were worth the effort for Valve. I hope now we can get to play Half Life series beginning to end (my fear was that we would not). Great news!

Add game to library I believe, its called.
It then asks for the cd / dvd key of your game.

Edit: it's not listed in the Linux games and the Store page claims it's Windows-only... Where did you get this from Micheal?
Source is Here: http://cdr.xpaw.ru/linux/
Also Counter Strike 1.6 is coming with instructions: http://www.gamingonlinux.com/article...-to-linux.1668

Not that it's that important, the old GoldSrc games run pretty well under Wine. But native Linux games are always Good News... still waiting for L4D2, though.

Hm, I wonder what this is: http://i.imgur.com/BuLFz7E.jpg (Not wine, I promise I'm not that mean) So far I can't connect to any servers (assets don't match). Anyone want to host a server and I'll try to connect? Steam -> All Games -> Counter Strike -> Properties -> Beta -> SteamPipe Beta -> Install then: cd ~/Steam/SteamApp/common/Counter-Strike; LD_LIBRARY_PATH:"$LD_LIBRARY_PATH":.
Hadn't time to test it, though.

We have been hearing about them for a while now but Team Fortress is all I have seen. *yawn* 2013 better be the year of Linux games. Windows is wasting a perfectly good disk for the sake of games.
Really!
