As you can see above You must login or register to view this content. now gives all steam users the ability to install multiple games at once allowing faster installs for DLC users as well as people who only like to play games for 10 minutes then switches to a new game(That's me). Knowing that this is only just a new basic feature add-on this does give another plus point for new PC gamers who need to install all their newly bought games unlike the old steam where you would manually have to go through each one to install one game at a time.

If you wish to to use features such as in-home streaming or Multiple-Game install simply opt for the steam beta program which will show you below how to opt for it.

Finally. Not that I ever have more than one game to install, but still a nice (and I assume highly demanded) feature.

You're move consoles.

don't see this being usefull unless they added multiple downs so you could download cs:go and payday 2 (other games NOT available Kappa ) at the same time and they split the download speed other than that a pretty useless addition

Sad part is it used to do this in the past. I never understood why they removed it to begin with.

It's a feature that was needed a long time ago.
