Valve is showing once again why they are the best game company in the world. They are now giving users the power to decide which games will be released next via
Steam Greenlight. Now games you believe deserve to spread around the world will get that chance through your vote!

Steam Greenlight is a new system that enlists the community's help in picking some of the next games to be released on Steam. Developers post information, screenshots, and videos for their game and seek a critical mass of community support in order to get selected for distribution. Steam Greenlight also helps developers get feedback from potential customers and start creating an active community around their game as early in the development process as they like.

How does this differ from other store's submission processes?
The prime difference is the size of the team that gets to decide what gets released. For many stores, there is a team that reviews entries and decides what gets past the gates. We're approaching this from a different angle: The community should be deciding what gets released. After all, it's the community that will ultimately be the ones deciding which release they spend their money on.
Will this be the chance for megraman to finally take off? Time will tell...
