I agree, but really it doesn't affect me so I'm not bothered.

It's a way to promote the games. They are allowed to do this, but obviously if the game is bad people won't buy it later.

Indeed, I wished Valve at least did some quality checks before they get released on Steam..

I've watched some really good games sit in greenlight forever while pretty much any junk that gets tossed in a bundle gets greenlit. If there were standards to begin with, the free games for votes thing would bother me. But quality was never the measure of success, so it doesn't bother me at all.

I agree. But it's Valves decision to do so. It's not like they can't do anything about it.

Tell me what isn't ? Instead of playing modern and cool games (i am not going to say names they are hell of a lot) people play pointless, pixelized, 2d games that you play only with the arrows on keyboard IN STEAM...even my 6yrs old nephew wont play them because he knows what is better.

There are different people, with different tastes in many things, sports, food, books, movies, videogames, etc. Just because you like "modern and cool" games doesn't mean everyone should think the same. I enjoy 2d pixel games, just as I enjoy many other kind of games.

They may be pointless but doesn't mean they're fun.
Also pixelized...Cmon. Pixel art may be ugly or totally gorgeous!

Some people just like the "2D games in pixels" aestethics, for others (including me) there's a certain nostalgia factor. But most of all, 2D games in pixels enable game designers with a low budget and/or modest technical skills to create the game they have in mind. This is, in my opinion, a great thing. Finally, 2D games in pixels may look dated, old, behind the times... but they're never really ugly. Games who go for the pseudo-realistic, modern style with a low budget often are (quick example: Little Racers Street, which is otherwise a fun little game).

So if you actually wanted an answer that's not a flame, here's mine. :)

Hotline Miami > rest of 2012-2013 shooters.

Unlike them it was fast, fun and challenging instead of boring "duck, stand, shoot, duck until regenerate, repeat until end of game".

Personally, I prefer stylish pixel graphics over hyperrealistic 3D graphics.

That been said, if a game looks like it'd be fun to play, I don't give a damn about the graphics unless they make me feel sick.

I don't really care, there are already sh**t ton of crappy games on Steam, we don't need a "PC game pedigree" I hate anime games or games like CoD but you don't hear me bitching about them being on steam. Chances are you won't even encounter these games in the store, if you don't like it don't buy it.

I did that with one because it looked interesting but never got my free key. I tend to look at greenlit stuff but if I only vote yes if it is something I feel that I would actually play.

The store is already riddled with "shitty games" & "copies of copies" that a few more coming in from Greenlight ain't going to hurt. I say good on them for getting their game(s) greenlit with a strategy that works.

Ever heard of the saying "one man's trash is another man's treasure"? Well, it applies here.

Customers will decide what is shitty game, and what is worth the price. The developers/publishers have the right to try to sell their product, it's not like we HAVE to buy them. There will be some shitty games in the store yeah, but why does this bother you? If you go into a real life store to buy something, there will be crap quality products too, but obviously you'll choose whichever you like. This is called competition.

Even if they get approved and go to steam store, they will just be in the main page for a week or less.
After that they will be forgotten.

In other words, I don't give a damn.

Try this solution, it's fool-proof:

  1. Open Minecraft
  2. Enter Single-Player mode
  3. Find Horse
  4. Kill Horse
  5. Beat dead horse

I don't mind, I like free games.
If it's something that I find interesting, I'll vote and get my key. If not, I'll just ignore it completely or vote "No, thanks" and go back to minding my own business. It's a win-win, really ;)

It is true that decent games tend to be somewhat rare on Greenlight these days, though...

As far as I know, the devs should have no way of checking if you actually voted. So you can enter to get the game but not vote for it if you don't think it deserves to be on steam. That should help discourage devs from trying to get crappy games on steam like this.
