Steam games broken
I've been playing Portal 2 and Saints 3 for the past month with no problem. Portal 2 is from the original release date. Recently, I can't get these games to work. On a reboot, Steam does this endless update. Eventually, it finishes. I open steam and it updates again. When it finishes it may or may not connect to steam. When it does, if I select Portal 2 if immediately fails with no explanation. If I start Saints 3 it starts up to the message stating autosave then fails. I get a message saying I should delete appcache. I do this and go thru the whole routing again.
Results? Same. Nothing.
I've put a ticket in but have not heard for a week. I'm hoping someone has experienced this or something similar and may have a solution. I'm not very reluctant to buy any game that uses steam if this is what to expect.
Personally, I'm getting a little tired of this requirement to go online to play a non-online game. But that's just the opinion of a get-off-my-lawn-cranky-old-guy.
