Valve has shaken up Steam user reviews to better reflect how a game plays in its present state.
The solution is twofold. New reviews are listed more prominently, reducing the emphasis on top-rated reviews of a game in an earlier state. Second, the overall review score displayed on the Steam Store page is now calculated over 30 days instead of the game's lifetime. The full review history is still preserved, preventing nefarious meddling, but old posts are bumped to a 'Most Helpful' tab.
Here's the fine detail for you. I give it 4 stars.
