Like we said yesterday, today you can test Steam's Big Picture. It's a new mode that lets you access all of your favorite Steam games on a television. With the press of a button, Steam displays a new full-screen user interface optimized for readability and interaction on TV. Big Picture has been designed to be used with a traditional game controller, while also fully supporting keyboard and mouse input.

For more information about Steam's Big Picture visit the official website.

    FUCK YEAH!!!

    Steam on TV suckas! Buut... Does this work with PS3 Controllers, that's what I'm saying because I don't like playing on XBox 360 (No offense to XBL fans) and really, I just wonder if Sony will be allowed to put this excellent thing on the PS3? Would be cool, can't wait to do this sort of epicness!

    Controller Xbox 360 Wireless Controller for Windows, Xbox 360 Wired Controller, or Logitech Wireless Gamepad F710 recommended. Keyboard and mouse also supported.

    I'm using my ps3 controller, because there is an app called motioninjoy that can emulate the 360 controller with the ps3 one ;P

    Even before this Big Picture thing, I was using my TV as a computer monitor. Unfortunately though, due to being poor, I can't use my wireless 360 controllers. Still, I love my mouse and keyboard. I must say though, this is quite nice.
