i dont really like it since it lags horribly at startup both on my netbook and on the other pc

I did once, for like 5 minutes because i didnt know what was it ... but never again.

It is has a pretty laggy startup. i really hate it. and it's a pain in the ass to use.
i don't see a reason i would use it anyway.

My friend often plugs his TV to the PC and plays on BPM those gamepad-friendly games, like Dark Souls. We played some local co-op games using Big Picture as well. Like Magicka or Trine.

"the BPM button is just a thing for me to misclick on and shout profanities at while I wait for Steam to recover so I can go back to regular Steam." - This

i tried it once on my htpc, but it didn't have an installed games view so it was easier to use regular steam. i might try it again sometime since it's probably changed a bit since last time.

I use it to play games on TV with a controller. I don't have a console, so this is the way to have a taste of that feeling.

Why would anyone use big screen mode with keyboard and mouse

nope games performe better with normal steam

Not using it.

Just once for a badge.
I also once tried to photoshop a photo on tablet, for a dare.
Both experiences were similar.

i assumed it was for TV only... Feels too clumsy on pc with mouse and keyboard. Never used it, don't see the point :D

I use it all the time. Works great. The UI for typing with just a controller is phenomenal. Seems like many people who have posted so far don't even have a controller. Of course a UI made for a controller not good with mouse and keyboard come on people.

I used it once for a steam badge, barely even remember what it was like.

If you have a powerful gaming PC and a HTPC with controllers in your living room, BPM can be used for In-Home Streaming

yh sometimes, when i feel I want sit on the sofa and play a game through the tv

Tried it on my PC, it sucks, badly...
If you hook your PC to your TV, then it's a completely different story. But I used it maybe 2-3 times and forget about it. I already have a PS hooked to my TV, I don't see the point to hook my PC to it also. Why would I want to play on the living room if I'm a PC gamer? You have consoles for that...

Last night, when I accidentally hit the button when trying to close the client. And the resolution was f-cked up, so I had to alt+f4

Yeah, no thanks. I'm bothered by it's button being so huge and positioned where it is. It would be better to hide that shite into settings window. Users who have TV and controller connected all the time would be able to mark it as always on once and that would solve problems for them and us. But hey, we're talking about Valve, makers of great games, somewhat decent software and lousy tech support. There's no chance they are gonna fix anything soon.

Only one time just to try it. It's a useful mode if your pc is attached to the TV and you want to play on your sofa.

I use it for in home streaming. That feature just doesn't want to work outside of big picture.

absltly uzls shit

I cant use it, Steam crashes every time I try it

I use it when I want to play a couple of games with Xbox360 controller... when I play "normally" (i.e: keyboard + mouse) I stay away from it XD

if anyone actually used it i would probably lose faith in humanity lol

i use it and i like it
