I've got the Collector's Edition but can't seem to start the game.

Installed the game fine. Created a Steam account fine. Activated the games fine. Updated the games fine.

When I try to play, I get a window that says Preparing to play Half-Life 2 and after 30 seconds it goes away. If I look at the properties for Half Life 2 on Steam's available games, Half-Life 2 says Requires update and Offline Mode says Not Ready. I've got Always keep the game up to date selected but I can't figure out how to get the Offline mode to say Ready.

Same thing happens with Counter Strike Source and Half-Life Source, thought Half Life Source opens to Ready then Changed to Not Ready a second later.

Anyone know how to get this thing going?
