Valve have announced the beta launch of Steam Reviews, a features that will add more ways for Steam users to share their experiences with others and make more informed purchase decisions. Users considering a purchase on Steam may now browse reviews from friends and the community, leave comments on reviews, and indicate which reviews they found helpful.
Once a user has played a game or used a software title on Steam, they are able to write a review of that product and share their experience with everyone on Steam.
Steam Reviews is an evolution of the Recommendation system that has been a part of Steam since 2010. Over the past few years, Steam users have written over 7 million Recommendations of games and software to their friends. Those Recommendations have been upgraded to Steam Reviews. As such, users may now choose to make their past Recommendations visible as Reviews to everyone on Steam, if they wish, by visiting their list of Reviews and changing the settings accordingly.
Steam Reviews is currently in open beta, accessible to any Steam user.
It’s a great way to expand on the information users can share on the service and will go a long way to helping people pick the games that are right for them without having to rely on information from outside of the serivce.
