If you install Steam and register your Half Life CD key with it, I believe you can just tell it to install Counter-Strike for you (unless I'm mistaken and you need the platinum pack that includes Counter Strike... if this is the case, you can still install Half Life in Steam and then install Counter Strike into THIS Half Life.)

Why would you use steam? Automatic updates! Woohoo, no stupid downloading patches every time something's updated!

If the game even comes with a CD key. If he has an old version it may not.


Also: You ONLY need Half-Life as CS used to be a third party mod.
