I found the solution: 
renaming the file "/usr/share/applications/Steel Storm: Burning 
Retribution.desktop" to "/usr/share/applications/steelstorm".

On the commandline you can do this with the command (without quotes):
"sudo mv /usr/share/applications/Steel Storm: Burning Retribution.desktop 
/usr/share/applications/steelstorm.desktop"

Apparently the dash is not able to parse *.deskop files with whitespaces
in the filename.

I reported a separate bug about that in:
