Good stuff.
I for one really like Steam Big Picture and use it a lot, not actually on my tv at the moment, I don't have a cable long enough and can't be arsed to move my stuff about but it's great even on my monitor. Nice to control everything with the controller and even the new way of typing is great. It takes a bit of getting used to but it's pretty good and done well.

It's horrible, they were doing deals on controller friendly games yesterday, made me mess up a game install too.
They can take my freedom, but they'll never take my keyboard /mouse!

I tried it, I clicked on "Resume update" for Metro 2033 and it crashed. Not using it again. End.

gotta be careful now if you want to expand or minimize the steam window incase it goes into console mode after hitting that silly big picture button (really nice place to put it btw.)
i was re-installing hitman after i zeroed my drive yesterday and seen the button, hit it, thought what the hell is this (while it hung and i had to close steam down).

Looks good, reminds me a lot to WMC.
The only thing that's kinda bad is you can't select repair functions (verify game integrity cache) or am I missing something?

Horrible, i think its great, i have it to automatically start up in big picture mode now, even works fine with mouse/kb. 🙂

Not a big fan of it. I like my list view

Make sure you try out the in-game view of it too, looks alot better than the normal shift-tab.

Only thing i like about it is configuring a joypad.
