Help i cant play any steam game

and i have done the following
1) exited/loged out
2) re-logged in (log in fine but games dont load)
3) shutdown for about 10 mins
4) log back on, load steam up (go back to 2) they still dont work)
5) restarted
6) nothing
7) come here for help
8) please HELP!

try re-installing steam or your computer?

Shut down Steam, go to "Programfiles (x86)" and "Steam" and delete "ClientRegistry.blob". Start Steam again and it will be fixed......maybe.

Okay guys update
when i first got steam and my first game was terraria
anyway
when i got mw3 every game like stuck of pre-pareing to launch thing
and now it works, but it gets stuck on the pre-pareing to launch now and then
so got any ideas on how to fix that

1) Do you have slow motherfucking internet?
2) Have you tried resetting your modem/router?
3) Are you VAC-banned, check your VAC status!
4) Try reinstalling steam
5) Repeat Step #2.

5) i repeat step 2 all the time

You failed at following step 4. Do it and feel the magic.

okay, ill try step 4, but wood i need to re-install my games?

Well I am not sure about that
but just cut the common map from steam to you desktop ( takes only 10 sec or so )
then reinstall en put the map pack
common folder can be found here
C:/program files(x86)/steam/steamapps/common

goodluck
