I very rarely post around GITP, but I really need help with this one. Plus I DID notice the Steam thread, but I wasn't really sure if I should make a new thread or post in there. So sorry in advance if I did something wrong.
Ok, so over a year ago I bought Team Fortress 2, played it a while, but because my computer sucked so much and didn't want to run it so well back then I stopped playing it for a while. After our computer broke and got fixed for the third time or so, I was willing to bet that it'll run smoother and better now. So I finally decided to install it today.
Buuuut things didn't go as I planned them. When I first bought TF2 my brother and I shared this computer, so we also shared the same Steam account. But now my brother has his own computer and I had to make my own Steam account with which to install TF2. Get where I'm going with this? That's right. I forgot to uninstall TF2 before so I can't use the CD-key that came with the game. And I've been trying to figure out how to uninstall the game so I can use the same CD-key again (if it's even possible) but I have so little experience with Steam that I have no idea what I'm supposed to do. :smallsigh:
So I need help. Is it possible to uninstall a Steam game through Steam and then install it on to another account without having to buy a new copy of the game? And if so, how?
Please? Anyone?
