Just got myself a WD Passport.

Can I just move the game files over to the external HDD or do I need to reinstall to it?

Or will they even play off it at all?
 
shouldnt be a problem...never had a problems moving games..i do a lot of making more than one copy of folders for games and copying files (i.e. without a reinstall) when modding so knock yourself out :D
 
I recently started playing wow again and I had the game backed up on a usb powered hard disk so read speeds are slow and it worked perfectly to my suprise, nothing different from a full speed desktop

edit: I understand this wont be the same for all games!
