The exact formula is a trade secret. No sarcasm. Basically, Metacritic has a system where some reviews are worth more than others, and thus they adjust their values behind the scenes before pumping out an average. In practice, this ends up being similar to the real average, but with a nice integer and maybe one or more outlier reviews throwing things off by a couple of points.
Love and tolerate.
