It looks like PlayStation is introducing user reviews on the PS Store.


In a thread entitled "When did PlayStation start allowing written reviews?", an eagle-eyed PS5 owner noted on the PlayStation subreddit that the company was inviting user reviews for a select number of games.


Whilst fans have long been able to rate games from zero to five stars out of five, this is the first time players have been invited to leave a written review.

Why they take all this time I'll never know. Maybe using AI or fanboys to monitor the review?

What next? Giving option for gift?

Even Starfield has only 476 reviews, the entire thing is nothing compared to something like Steam.

Good move. Next up: integrated community forums.

Then let's see who between the two (we know Nintendo's not gonna do it this lifetime) is first to provide transparent player metrics (CCUs, etc.) for games on their network. Steam's well ahead on this front; time for Sony & Microsoft to catch up.

Typing up reviews with a gamepad ain't exactly as easy as with a keyboard.

Also Steam provides some perks for user reviews; I don't know if MS does anything similar.

Cool.

I hope storefronts continue to integrate features that have seen great success on Steam.

I got that review when I finished Resident evil 3 remake.... It's a good implementation.

This is going to be a censorship spree as soon as they release another game like TLoU II.

I don't personally think that user reviews are all that useful, but more than 10 is probably fine to get as much insight as they're going to give you, imo.

Am I missing something? Starfield shows 30000+ reviews on mine. Vampire Survivors has 4000+.
