The Source engine contains support for multiplayer gaming, and Valve

plans to release several multiplayer games at the time HL2 is made

available. This week we've announced Counter-Strike: Source. We will be

more releasing information on the other games and how they will be made

available to gamers in the coming weeks.

So I guess there will be basic HL2 which has only DM&TDM but with a cupon to play, all other Source mp stuff made availible through Steam, for a limited time to tease you to buy or subscribe for other Steam Source mp stuff. (CS, TFC)

A platinum version HL2 box will probobly allow you to play all "old" HL1 stuff ported to source and such through Steam.

This is pure speculation but I think it's a possible scenario with Valve and Steam and such..

Lets take a fast-paced unrealistic game were you capture glowing flags, constantly respawn and throw yourself around a maze using grenades; and make it realistic! Surely a recipe for success!

I would have 5 years ago too. Quake had one of the best rendering, physics, entity/logic systems, and pretty good AI for its time. Building all that from scratch would have caused HL1 to be 2 or 3 years longer. Oh and HL2 isn't based off quake, but HL1, you could say its based off quake but very little is there, so really no.
