We have just updated the beta, with the following changes:

General:
Changed Steamworks API calls to always fail fatally if Steam.exe has crashed so that the game will fail in a user visible manner. This is designed to prevent games that utilize cloud/achievements APIs from continuing to run and appearing to save progress when in reality they are failing and losing the users progress.

Big Picture:
Fixed styles regression with main menu buttons jumping to the right on transitions back from deeper UI
Fixed styles regressions transitioning in and out of “New for you” display
Fixed regression leading to mouse not consistently working in Big Picture overlay
Fixed styles issue making prices get truncated in the store view at times when a featured game had a long title/description
Fixed some uninitialized controller state that might fix the issue some beta users are seeing with 360 controllers not always working

Linux:
Fixed a crash in the Big Picture web browser on Linux
