    Steam "Family" Sharing

    Share your computer?
    Now share your games too.


    Steam Family Sharing allows close friends and family members to play one another's games while earning their own Steam achievements and saving their own game progress to the Steam cloud. It's all enabled by authorizing a shared computer.

    Is there a limit to the number of devices I can authorize to share my Library?

    Yes. A Steam account may authorize Family Sharing on up to 10 devices at a given time.

    So as reported on in the Twitter Feed, this is basically the Family Sharing plan Microsoft axed when they got rid of the always-on/online check-in part of the Xbox One.

    At least somebody is doing this awesome thing.

    The worst part is that it's going to be embraced by the gamers as a great innovation...

    And Microsoft will continue getting a low reputation by bad, trendy game press that actually told them to cut such an idea.


    Real power comes from the man next to you and is built on the foundations of brotherhood and unity. There is no such thing as a one man army.

    Did press actually tell them to cut it or was it their tradeoff for removing Always Online DRM
