try restarting steam and see how it gets on failing that shutdown steam  find your ClientRegistry.blob file in the steam folder, rename it something like ClientRegistryold.blob and then restart steam, it will then update itself and it should find your game


I came into this world with nothing,
through careful management I\'ve got most of it left.

If in doubt delete the blob. Usually the restart does it though. I've had problems with a paypal purchase timing out before requiring the blob deleting. It's a pain having it break, but quick to fix.
