Steam Greenlight was announced in July 2012 as a way for Steam users to help promote which games should be added to the service. Developers will be able to submit information about their games, as well as early builds or beta versions, for consideration by users. Users can pledge support for these games, and Valve will help to make top-pledged games available on the Steam service. Steam Greenlight went live on August 30, 2012. In response to initial complaints during its first week that finding games to support was made difficult due to a flood of inappropriate or false submissions, Valve added the requirement that developers put up a $100 fee to list a game on the service to cut down on non-legitimate submissions. The fee will then be given to the To view the link Register charity. A later modification allowed developers to put conceptual ideas on the Greenlight service without fee, as to garner interest in potential projects; votes from such projects are only visible to the developer. Further, Valve allowed non-gaming software to be voted onto the service through Greenlight. The first game to be released via Steam Greenlight was To view the link Register.

To view the link Register

Если кратко, то это сервис, где пользователи могут сами выбрать игры, которые они хотели бы видеть в стимовском наборе игр для продажи. Штука эта была запущена 30 Августа сего года. Как вам идея?

Идея сама по себе интересна, однако все зависит от желания или не желания Вентилей ее продвигать и поддерживать. Например, когда вышла Black Mesa Source за ее появление в магазине проголосовало приличное такое количество людей, однако Вентили нашли массу бюрократических препонов, посредством которых это дело затянулось. Чем эта история закончилась - я не в курсе.
