As reported on IGN , Studio head of Sledgehammer Games, Glen Schofield isn't happy with the way Modern Warfare 3 is getting treated on Metacritic .
It's currently got a metacritic of 82 . That's a reasonable average, sitting just above our Modern Warfare 3 review score.
Glen was more upset by the rating (formed by the public, not critics). At the time it was sitting at 1.7. Metacritic's s were making a statement. Not necessarily a truthful statement, but a statement nonetheless.
Schofield wasn't happy about this, so he hit his twitter feed and posted: "I don't usually do this but, if u like MW3 go 2 Metacritic.com & help our score. It's suspiciously low. Be honest but help if u agree."
He's since deleted the tweet. Probably because it got him into trouble. Later on, after some negative and accusations unfair boosting, he attempted to justify his original comments by posting that he "know[s] it's better than a 1.7."
It seems the s agree; Modern Warfare 3's rating currently stands at 1.8.
