Sadly, this seems more likely to bury games than give them wings. Too few tools to separate wheat and chaff, a search function that returns fourteen results for "receiver" of which the game of the same name is ranked thirteenth, and a lack of group-interest-driven discovery options will sink this tool unless Valve iterates on it fast.
Great idea, lacking execution. I hope to see more soon.

Project Zomboid 2012 plz. The build from a while back made it seem like the zombie game I've always wanted. Wasn't down for messing with Desura for one game, though.
Also... "Big Nig's Over the Boarder Racing" lasted for much longer than I anticipated.

Yeah and if I'm not mistaken the pages semi randomize as you move through them. Which makes going to the next page to view games somewhat useless.
and OMG so many "our game is in early alpha" ........why bother? Apply to Greenlight when you have a game >,<

Wow, this incredibly promising platform has ALREADY been ruined by the public at large. Why are there so many people putting freeware games up on behalf of the developer?! WAIT FOR/MAKE THEM DO IT, everything is just getting buried. There also seems like a ton of repeats, or maybe it's just the randomization as you click through (which I would think makes it impossible to view them all? Too hard for me to sit and try and find every one at least).
Downvoting Slender Source. Not the same people from the first, but taking their entire "run with a flashlight and collect crap" basis.
Voted all morning. Now its a flood of garbage it seems. Glad I could find the worthy (imo) ones right off the bat
Seems like a lot of things we've already seen before and flavour of the month stuff. Hopefully that 10% is worth the other 90% of crap.

Yeah the pages randomize just tried it, if you hit F5 you get the same items that are on your current page. However if you go forward or backwards a page then it gives you arbitrary crap in no specific order ~.~
I spent like 5min searching for a game I voted for earlier without any luck. Did a search for it and got nothing. Sorta got worried that it might have been taken down even tho it looked decent.
Googled it and got the steam address to its greenlight page, was still there so I threw it in my favorites.
Summation: wow that layout is a clusterfuck and I hope they fix it soon. Because between that and the flood of bad games coming in its going to be nearly impossible to even find the decent games.

Yeah, it's a total wreck. A lot of garbage that shouldn't even be on there at ALL, the search function is broken, and since the order is randomish you could look through all 19 pages and not have seen all the games!
Good idea, hope they take tighter control of it, though.

Okay, so I haven't really read much about Steam Greenlight, but am I right in assuming that this means you have to VOTE for the games that get made? Why the hell shouldn't developers release their games on their own time, then, instead of asking Valve's permission? Or am I missing something here?
The service will need some refinement, but I definitely respect its intentions. Mutant Mudds, your day is not far away.
I was also happy to see Bloody Trapland pop up there, too, though it doesn't seem to be getting the support I hoped it would.

Valve is also going to have to adjust how much an up-vote affects the "positive rating" meter. Almost 6,000 people have Slender: Source as a favorite and it only has a 5%? I'm no math person, but at least 114,000 more people would need to support the game in order for it to make it on Steam. I'm sure there are plenty of games on Steam that will never even break 50,000 units sold, so this seems a little lopsided to me for Indie games.
@Pedrovay:
It's a way of letting the community decide which games (especially lesser-known indie games) get put on Steam. The games are supposed to be more or less complete or playable at the time of submission I believed. It should be a good thing, since games on Steam get more exposure, and they can still sell them elsewhere DRM-free for the anti-Steam fanatics since Steam does not require exclusivity ;)
It's a good idea in concept but there are just too many to go through and there is no screening process whatsoever that I can tell. People are putting up games they just personally want up, when they are not part of the dev team or anything.

La-Mulana, guys. It's CRIMINAL that the game isn't on Steam. According to one of the employees at Playism, though, you can thank Valve for that.

Both seemed like super ideas, and quality games that would be likely to succeed if given the Greenlight for Steam release.
