I don't know whether you mean the Steam program or the Games themselves? You can quite easily disable automatic updates on a game by game basis using the properties menu.

As for TF2 its a great game and I play it loads, but that's down to the constant refinements and Free updates it receives. Like any on-line shooter Steam based or not, if you don't keep it up to date then you won't be able to connect to a game server.

In both these regards Steam is not really "getting in your way" of playing your games.
