instead of making it free, they should come up with some way to block the non steam game, and fix stuff on Steam

i have 4 servers thats always has players online and most of the time are full and it's Steam Only servers!

That would ruin the game.
I play 1.6 for over 10 years, and only recently i got Steam (because a friend bought me).
CS:1.6 should be free, especially now, or atleast his price drastically reduced.

And how are they going to "block" something that they have no control over? Instead of dealing with "no steam = no support" crap, just make the game free to play and end everyone's misery. The non-steam versions are much more used than the actual game in Steam.

If you never lived in Russia or Brazil or other third-world countries, you won't get it. Yes, sometimes it's too expensive or too hard to buy.. but in such countries it's part of mentality. You can go to a shop and spend 5$-6$ on food but You won't pay for games even if the price is only 0.1$. Hard life teaches you to save any penny. Even when life gets easier You can't change your mind.
And yes, kids have no way to pay games... CD/DVD gone for good, and not even all adults have plastic cards. You don't have to ask parents... just download.
I agree with ohyeah1234, communities for CS/CSS are dying, if nothing changes in may be 5 years we will have no large game-servers. It's already hard to find hl:dm servers with players

We all wish we lived in Russia. Everything on Steam Store is -50% off, all the time. On -90%, generally 1.6 reaches 99 cents, in Russia is 49.

Relaxing, believe me You wouldn't like to live in Russia. I've been on both sides of the border and tested the life in Europe and Russia. Most "foreigners" have no idea about life in Russia. Game prices are fading in front of other problems.

In my contry, CS:1.6 costs the same as 1 month of internet (10~ MB speed).
This conversation makes no sense, stop judging other ppl, most non-steam players are kids or people with not much money to waste on a game that they can play for free, specially kids with no acess to mom/dad credit card like all American kids do.
