In order to enable the console in Half Life 2 :
(sreenshots are from the french STEAM version, sorry for that ...)
1) Launch Steam, and go to <My games> panel
2) Right mouse click on HL2 Deatmatch, and go to <proprieties> item
3) Click on the <launching properties> button
4) Add -console in the input text box
5) Add -novid in the same input box, if you are bored with the intro movie (You can join game server faster without the boring video)
Enable console for HL2

This method works for you Kio

I had to use the method given by Cynyx to have a console open, your method didn't work for me when I wanted to get the console. Maybe that one of the valve update had fixed the problem, or maybe this problem only occur on my installation.
But now I have a console, so I don't think I'm going to try your method again

In fact, when I choosed selected the case to open the developper console, the developper console can't be opened by pressing the "~" button, or by pressing the "²" button, which I assume to be the equivalent for the "~" button in french keyboard, and is often used for console in games.
So, i search another way of having a console, and the way that cynyx had given works for me. The only problem of this solution is that a console is open when the game starts, and if we close this console, we have to restart the game to open a new one.
You are right to propose this method if its work for you, because this method is quite more simple than the one I used. I just answered to your post because I don't had so much luck than you, and I had to use a more complicated way to get the console

hmm i hear some trick. that you can connect to server but not standart way ( see the window of proccesing of your downloads and connecting to serve)
But instead the screen in menu ( where rebel atack 3combines with toilet+gg) you will see console mod of connecting to serever. And all function like "disconect " " Find Serever" "Friends" will be useable. Its like in hldm oldschool) By the way who have it???
