after the game has finished downloaded via steam you go to the menu, steam, click backup or restore and then backup. those files it creates you can burn or keep on your hdd. then you just restore via them again.

I doubt there is a way, I am pretty sure Steam made sure that was virtually impossible to do for obvious reasons. The game is link to your account anyway and can only be accessed through the login details from where the game was purchased.

The only thing that you can do is backup your game onto a disk or HDD, but cant rip it.

Piracy isn't condoned here, if that's what you meant.

Sorry. I used the wrong lingo there. :o

I am not interested in pirating the game; that would definitely not be cool.

What I am trying to do is to avoid having to download games in my account paid for through Steam when I format my PC. With a 15Gb cap, it would take months for me to get all my games downloaded again. So that's what I am looking for.

Its not bad tried the demo a while ago. And this time decided to gift it to a few friends and in turn that friend gifed it to a few more people so we can get a game going. Wage got a dedicated server on and since we all are new to the game it will be fun since nobody had change to practice.

Thanks again for the gift btw :D. Mine was nearly done this morning so it should be ready to play when I get home from work. :)
 
This is where Steam fails massively. Trying to download that Dogfighter now, but keep getting message that Steam servers are to busy to handle my request. Sometimes I get that when I try to play a game as well. Extremely annoying.

Dogfighter DL complete.

Less than an hour to DL. Cool.

For those who want to know, it's about 1GB download.

If it's THQ week, then I hope they release CoH: ToV. I need that one to complete my collection. Oh yeah, and DoW: Soulstorm.
