Steam Cloud makes gaming a bit clearer.

It’s always a pain playing a game on a friend’s computer. There’s always the one guy who has inverted controls so up is down, or a PC gamer who set “c” as crouch instead of shift. You can either struggle to get used to your friends play style, or switch back the the default controls you spent so long editing the buttons to avoid. Fortunately, Valve has found a way to fix this dilemma.

In comes Steam Cloud, Valve’s newest little trick on their Steam gaming platform. As long as your friend has Steam installed on their computer, you can simply log into your account and Steam Cloud saves all your key bindings, controls, and other preferences along with the rest of your account information. Any change in the game options will be transferred between computers. Valve’s tradition of innovation and customer convenience lives on.
