Need to clear up to some HD space. Correct me if I'm wrong but all I need to do to back up the games is to copy the Steamapps folder and the savefiles stored in my documents?

Been a while since I did this.

Yup. Then when you go to re-install the games, Steam will find the already existing folders and unlock it on your account. Takes no more than 2-3 mins.

Nearly finished the walking dead after getting it on friday and really enjoyed it. Will most likely play through it again to see what happens when I do things differently.

At least I played one game I bought during a sale. That's rare

I use London. For the most part, it stays consistently stable. Usually in or around 80% of my maximum download speed.

10 July: Steam Sale starts tomorrow - ill be grand i have loads of unplayed games yet to play and the ones i what to get will be cheaper in the next sale when my backlog will be less - must stay away from FM13, God Dam It ill limit myself 1 or 2 games, maybe 3 but no more that 3.

Has anyone else bought games this sale, and not received a receipt via email? It's happened now with a couple of my purchases.

Got receipts for everything so far. Last purchase 13/7/13
Used Paypal for all payments so have those receipts too.

I already have Fallout 3 and New Vegas on the Xbox but dont have any of the DLC..might as well spend a tenner and get all the DLC for both games on the PC so

Might be better off raising a ticket with support (shudder). At least the games are showing up on the store transactions tab on my account page. The transactions will show up on my bank statement eventually too I suppose. Just annoying - I like keeping a record of my financial mismanagement.

I was an ambassador for the Efiber rollout,Back then I was getting 78 mbps download and 62 mbps upload.....Oh how I miss those speeds

One would assume then that you picked up 'You Need A Budget'? It's currently going for €32.99, but I reckon it will appear in a Flash Deal again! Keep an eye out! :pac:
