Condition Zero is a standalone game.You dont anything to play it except Steam.

To play Counter-Strike you need it install it,but you need a new Half Life (1) cd key to play it on Steam.

Taken from the Steam Website(http://www.steampowered.com)


How do I install and use mods in Steam?

If you have a Half-Life mod installed before installing Steam, Steam will automatically convert and install the game for you. It will then be accessible in the Steam "My Games" list under "Third Party Games."

If you want to add a mod after installing Steam, you need only to put it in the Steam/SteamApps/your_email_address/Half-Life directory. The next time you open the "My Games" list it will be listed under "Third Party Games."

if you want to play CS through steam remember to dl steam first before buying. install and test steam to see if it works. I bought cs but couldnt get steam to work because of an error, still cant play cause of the error.

1.6 = buy cs or half-life, install steam, put in cd-key, play ;)

1.5 = buy cs or half-life, install any of them, if you got half-life download cs mod, if you bought cs download the 1.5 update ;)

No.
If you want to play Condition Zero than you dont need a half life cd key,you will get one with Condition Zero.
So you need to install Steam and then CS:Condition Zero :)
