TBF Valve and Steam were IIRC the first or very close to first to have a game that required online activation (not including like MMOs) with Half-Life 2. Steam was incredibly frustrating for me as a kid stuck with dial up as the offline mode was tremendously broken and the install DVDs always fetched large portions (for dial-up anyways) of the game from some server. Plus you had to update games upon install even if you didn't want to which meant longer downloads. |
