mainly because how would you control it ? you cant share the same keyboard?
So, I recently bought a gaming laptop (Asus G50VT X5) and am installing my steam games to play when I can. I already have a gaming rig, and I play most the games there but I want the laptop for when I'm away.
It really got me thinking-- what If a friend wanted to play black ops or team fortress 2 with me, but didn't have a steam? Could we both me logged onto mine and do a private match or both be playing? Anything like that? Obviously you can't. But I think that would be pretty nice.. something like that..
I know about how one person can be in offline mode and the other online but that doesn't really help, because in offline mode you can only do singleplayer.
Consoles can split screen and both go into online games why can't PC (steam) figure something out like that?

@-ParagonRex-
One person on my laptop, me on my main computer?

You mean playing in LAN but with only 1 steam account
Isnt he able to make his own acc? TF2 is F2P..
Yeah I forgot about TF2 being free but I'm talking about games that aren't free. And yes @Diminished That's what I mean.

Isn't LAN when someone has the same IP, and you play?
good point.

I'm not sure how what would work. But it would be nice if you could though. I'll try looking it up for you.
