does anyone know how meta critic calculates its score from all the reviews?


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.


ah okay,  i was wondering with the actual average being 75.6.
