I just did some comparison testing:

   LibreOffice 3.3.1 – Automatically plays .pps and closes it when it is finished playing
   PowerPoint (MS Office for Macs 2011) – Automatically plays .pps and closes it when it is
   finished playing
   OOo 3.3 – Opens a .pps in edit mode. Have to select play. Exits play to edit mode.
   Keynote (iWork '08) – Opens a .pps in edit mode. Have to select play. Exits play to edit mode.

The LibreOffice developers have successfully emulated the behaviour of PowerPoint.
If that emulation is desirable is another question.
