The funny thing about Steam is that there is no "highest rated". There is "recommended" and "not recommended". So you might "recommend" both S1 and COE33 even though you enjoyed the latter way more.

    You take the number of "recommendeds" of one game and compare it to the total "recommendeds" of another. One would likely have more than the other. Thereby making one rated higher than the other.

    It's already common to see rating systems primarily only get the lowest or the highest rating, effectively working out to be the same as a "like/dislike" system, similar to Steam's "recommended/not recommended" system.
