    Country Gamer(Springton, SA) needs help <sob>

    Hi

    I am just wondering if anyone can point me in the direction of somewhere that I can get backups of steam games on some form of media so as I can restore them to my computer. I recently had a massive HDD problem and lost everything. I have no excuse especially as my mobo supports RAID and i wasn't using it. I am now RAID 1 so should be happy times ahead.
    I am one of those wrinkly old gamers who got his start gaming with a Dick Smith DIY Pong game (for my modern B&W TV no less) and believe it or not this was my first HDD failure and I have owned PC's since my genuine IBM XT 4.77mhz(OC with a V30(20 maybe) chip that pulled about 5.2mhz in glorious CGA. My first real PC game was Test Drive(the original). Also I hated Myst.
    Anyway i am very sad as I have been sick for a few years now and my only real activity that doesn't leave me stuffed is gaming. I would download them but as I am on wireless and paying $50 per 3GB I though I might ask.
    BTW: Any old CS players (Beta's up to 5ish) may remember me as aardvarkHater

    Including Mr. Insidious above, there are a bunch of gamers from SA on here. I'm sure between a couple of them you could get the steamapps data for most if not all of those.

    I would be more than happy to provide media and beer(or alternative entertainment) to anyone that could help me out.

    Reslo will drink you out of home and Insidious' might take "liberties" with the offer of "alternative entertainment".

    You've been warned!
