PlayStation Store User Reviews

PlayStation is testing a new user review feature on its Store, allowing select players to leave written reviews for digitally purchased games, a shift from its previous five-star rating system. The feature is currently invite-only, with users receiving emails prompting them to submit reviews via a web browser, though it is not accessible for disc versions of games. Feedback on user reviews is mixed; while they can provide valuable insights, there are concerns about potential review bombing, similar to issues faced by platforms like Steam. Players are encouraged to partake in this testing phase, as it could lead to a more comprehensive feedback system akin to those on Xbox and Steam. Additionally, PlayStation's rewards program, PS Stars, offers points for engaging in specific activities, allowing players to eventually earn store credit or free games. As campaigns for PS Stars continue, it’s important for players to complete them promptly to avoid missing out.
