    Tried playing Metro 2033 today and I haven't changed anything on my computer. When I start the game it says "Metro 2033 failed to start (error code 51)." All my other games are working fine. I already tried deleting ClientRegistry.blob.

    Validated Metro 2033, found 2 files that couldn't be validated, downloaded those files, and it's working now. :)
