Why someone from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 developer Sledgehammer would consider its fan-voted Metacritic score worth a get-out-the-vote tweet is utterly beyond me. It is by far the most polarizing title among gaming’s annual releases, so a user score of 1.7 is probably to be expected, given how much gaming’s snobs cognoscenti despise all that it stands for. Besides, who gives a shit what kind of user-voted Metascore a game pulls? Is that really a publisher or studio’s measure of success now?
