you can get either, but I would suggest buying Half Life and downloading the CS Mod. I've found that other mods like The Specialists and Day of Defeat are excellent mods as well and to the best of my knowledge if you buy CS Retail, you don't have the options of playing other mods. Make sure that you are playing on a decent rig too. The STEAM engine for Half Life has proven to be a bit of a hog for smaller end comps. CS is wicked fun though, I find it as addicting as Shogo was.

Yah, I just bought the silver pak, great deal. Thus, I do need some help because I'm on a network and every game besides CS keeps booting me back to the server list??? WHY?!?!?! I looked at the support page and everything is set for the router. I need some serious help, anyone know any news, please let me know, thanks...

im behind a firewall too, not sure why it would boot you because of that. have you gotten the steam program yet, that is how CS is run now, the steam program will download game updates, patches ect automatically, has a crappy messenger thing built right in blah blah blah, link is www.steampowered.comcan play all the halflife mods ect through that also. to answer your first question, i would run halflife, and let steam install all the mods you want for you.
