Sien, have to upgrade computer to play new games soon. Things like Hot Pursuit and what not should get a hefty discount this year so I need to prepare for those games.

If you use the backup function from Steam. When it installs each game it contacts steam to verify your copy/check updates and etc. So more often than not, it would hang if there are several large installs. If you want to backup a lot of games. Directly making another copy, then using a day to archive them using 7zip or Winrar should achieve the same resulting size.

If you copy and paste, you have the choice of verifying each game one by one, if you install via a batch install file, you'll have to stare at the installation screen for a loooong while.

That's... two backups. Considering your library size Edison, you'd need to have like whut, 2 tbs to do 2 backups?
Last time when I copy pasta'd the whole thing which is about 300gbs, I can just choose 5 games at a time and do the verification then. Took me 2 hours to copy pasta and verify everything.
Orange Box installation took me dua jam with shitty koneksion. That's before patches. ._.

Well, if steam doesn't create a registry entry, first run of the game will.

If you frequently have download problems. I would suggest changing the download region to somewhere stable like Taiwan. The default login servers we connect to are usually the Ozzie ones and those tend to go down a whole lot for some reason.

It sez released on 7th of Jan, 2011 for me.

Then I realized Sonic2 and Sonic3K is not in the bundle... and are priced at 5 dollars each. FFFFFFUUUUUUUUU-.

HOW COULD YOU NOT LOVE A GAME WITH FRUITf***ERS IN IT!? That said. My card is being rejected for insufficient funds for some reason. Waffak? Added on January 28, 2011, 5:05 amQUOTE(Kidicarus @ Jan 28 2011, 02:47 AM) The Sega megadrive games on steam are only local multiplayer and not online unlike the ones released on xboxlive arcade That, is exactly what I was worrying about. Effing Sega not even porting games right. This post has been edited by Yuki Ijuin: Jan 28 2011, 05:05 AM

I don't think they would naturally suck, considering that the netcode is already done how hard would it be to actually port SoR to the PC with online multiplayer support?

It might be your connection, it might be the regional login server (Ozzie) down. Plenty of reasons.

I'm more curious as to how he knows a game is good without it being out yet.

You know what. I'm just going to spam the following line in all threads with garbage opinions.
"A game can be good without you liking it."

They completely removed the always on DRM features from their Uplay system, so I'm not sure why you'd think the always on DRM is still on HAWX 2.
Offgamers is a company in PUDU, KL. They deal with Gold Trade and Powerleveling for WoW and many other games. They seem to be making a great deal of money too with their international following.

This front mission is a TPS. Isn't as good, no depth like the SRPG predecessors.

It happens quite often actually. Prolly what happens is that the user credentials for the log in timed out. So it has to relog you into the steam login servers before contacting the authentication servers which causes the long delay/unable to start game error.
