So im having a lan party tonight and one of my friends has steam but only has it for bioshock. I wanted to play GE source with them all so i was thinking would this work. If he downloaded the half life 2 demo and then downloaded ge source would he be able to play it?

The HL2 demo doesn't come with the Source SDK Base unfortunately. So he'll be unable to play GE:S. Tell him to buy HL2DM, it's only 10$.

You can even buy episode one ($10 too) and you have a SP game + HL2DM :O

If he has an nvidia card, he can get hl2dm free

If he doesn't, I can give your friend HL2 as a steam gift.

Are you sure the SDK is included in this?

Other people have said it is.

If you're just wanting to play it on LAN copy your steam account across to his PC and play in offline mode. I'm sure I've seen that at a few LANs I've been at before. I may be wrong though.

No it doesnt work because it can tell if your logged in on 2 computers.

Ok. Thats great news. I always look forward to spending money.

I think you needed to understand the whole point of modding. It is a means for game company's to get more money for the games they made. In the case of valve the fuckn great games they made. And also saying you cant be fucked paying 10 dollars to play a mod like this is really a slap in the face for the hard work the dev team has put into it for free in their time and we shouldnt help you at all.
