    Why does Steam look like this?

    I logged-in into my brother's Steam account today to play some Modern Warfare 2. I started downloading the game and everything was fine. Then I come back to check on it and my Steam window now displays "Favorites" and "Games" for when I select "All Games" at the top. Before, it was only showing all my games in one row but now it's broken into two sections (Favorites and Games).

    I've attached a screenshot.

    If I log-in into my own account, it's fine (i.e. everything is shown in one list for when I select "All Games").

    Maybe because some games are in his favorites?

    It's the small mode/large mode thing. It's just a setting. To change it to large mode, go to View/Large Mode on the top.

    Thanks for the replies.

    Rambisco was correct! It was because he had those games in his Favorites.
