Looking for some advice here: I'm moving to a new house with 2Mbps internet soon, which is going to make downloading stuff from Steam a little more painful. As such, I'm looking to download a number of games in my Steam library whilst I still have a fast(er) connection.
My intention is to download them and put them straight onto an external HDD as I don't have the space on my actual system for them right now. What would be the best way to do this? I've tried Steam's own 'Backup and Restore Games' facility in the past with GTA4 and a few others, and it failed miserably to import the actual files and ended up wanting to download the entire game again.
Is there a better method that will work properly?
