Since the latest Steam update (http://store.steampowered.com/news/4228/) trying to run Half-Life results only in displaying the title screen, nothing more.
I am fairly certain that this is a bug which was exposed by the above update. I was playing Half-Life, then Steam prompted for a restart to complete the update and since then I can no longer run Half-Life, not even from a clean installation. I did not change my wine version inbetween.
This issue affects goldsource games (HL), but not source games (HL2).
