Valve, regular innovators where digital game distribution is concerned, has just announced "Greenlight", a new community-based effort on Steam that will see gamers choose which titles get released through the service. According to Valve, the internal greenlight group has always had a hard time deciding which games get through the gates, which I find a little interesting. I admit that I've always thought Steam would release anything and everything that came in, especially given the huge surge of indie titles, but apparently I was a little off the mark.

I thought they let any game on their service as well. I love this idea, it will help us common folk show what we want and not let those who have the money control what we see.
