Microsoft needs to make a feature where you can just boot your PC like a console into a simplified controller compatible desktop. Since people have games downloaded across different launchers (epic, steam, GOG, EA, Uplay) it is a hassle having to use the mouse to get started every time.

Great video! I had pretty much given up on PC couch gaming because it’s way more complicated to get the right setup than it should be, but your trick with unplugging and plugging in the HDMI cable to the TV to create two “modes” finally fixed the issues I was running into. I also use Playnite instead of steam big picture because it has more customization options and is able to hold my entire library regardless of launcher, if you haven’t yet I recommend checking it out. I also use a program called JoyXoff to bind KBM features to my Xbox controller so I don’t even need a keyboard or mouse at all on the couch! Thanks again!

You can skip a lot of this by just using steam. You can set big picture mode to activate by tapping twice the xbox button and you can select the TV as video input automatically. All this in steam configuration menu. And if you want use your PC just as a console you can select to boot directly in steam big picture.

I also went this way. To have my pc as console like as possible i did these steps. 1. Added all non steam games to my steam library. 2. Used steamgriddb and their plugin to get all covers, banners and logos. (Actually kinda fun) 3. Get Controller companion on steam 4. Set steam to autostart and to launch in big picture mode. 5. In windows settings set it to skip the login screen. Now if you turn on your pc you can sit back on the couch with nothing more than your controller, your pc will boot directly into steam big picture where you will find and thanks to controller companion will be able to start all your games even if they have other launchers.

The XBOX controller is definitely what Steam and PC prefers. I like using a PS5 controller too, but outside of Steam it's a headache to use.

Here's a quick tip to save you money and have less cable management to deal with. You will have to rearrange your living room for this. Pick a corner of the room and put your entertainment center at an angle in the corner to where you have a gap behind the entertainment center. You can use that extra space you just made to hide your gaming PC behind the TV. If your entertainment center has enough space to put your PC on it under the TV, then that is recommended first. There is no need to have long cables across your living room, especially if your WIFI router is right next to your TV, which most modern home living rooms should have set up anyway. It's just better to have your PC on your entertainment center just like a console to show off while you game.
