Isn't there a way to disable updates?

you can disable updates but then you cant play the game. verify the integrity of the game cache and it should solve the problem.

Already tried to verify the integrity. Will reinstall after this update.

OT: Steam never lies. It shows 3 hours left at start of download and stays on its word even after 6 hours :D

Unfortunately, once Steam "knows" that there is an update available, it won't let you play the game without installing the update. The only way to bypass this is to permanently play in offline mode, which is of course useless for TF2 ;)

Have you tried the Steam forums? I am sure I have read similar threads in there. Unfortunately, I can't remember the solutions in them now :(

Hopefully this will turn out to be a new year's gift rather than a hoax:- ;)

Yep, and if you pay above the average (5.something $) , you get Gratuitous Space Battles and Cave story free. GSB is worth the price imo.

I bought the Street Fighter 4 from Gamersgate today for $5 (Rs 278). Great game to have when you have friends coming over. The Arcade edition is still too expensive for me. These online sales have spoiled me and and now a days I rarely spend more than 5-10$ for a game.

Thanks for the heads up on the Humble Bundle :)

BTW, 66% off today on Shogun 2 Total War and its DLCs. I was saving my money for the big Holiday Sale, but this is a game I really wanted :D
