Valve has done a lot of testing with its
new feature Big Picture in its software platform, where the user can interact
more easily with Steam interface using just the controller. This feature is
designed to run on big screens or big TVs. From my point it had a lot of
success since you can turn your PC or Laptop into a game console.
Compared to recent news, Big Picture is old
news because Valve has announced that is going to release an OS called SteamOS.
This combines the power of Linux and the Steam platform with Big Picture to
bring the best gaming experience on every PC or Laptop.
Specially designed for TVs this operating
system will soon be free for download. It can stream games from any machine in
your network to your TV. SteamOS will also support media files.
Because of the design of running in you
leaving room SteamOS features Family Sharing and Family Options where you will
have the possibility to partition so you can manage your own achievements,
settings, game progress and what games
to see in your library, all of this will be saved to Steam cloud. Valve will bring
to Steam all its 3000 games also desktop software using the streaming feature.
