It's one of the most critically appreciated games of the year, but on the day of release, people were on Metacritic criticising it for lots of reasons. A similar thing happened with Portal 2 back in April. "Most of the millions of people who bought the game are actually playing it and enjoying it. "On day one or two, you are going to get a vocal minority who take to the forums on Metacritic and use them as a soap box to vent their rage about the series," says Daniel Krupa, a writer at games site, IGN. The first point, of course, is that it's dangerous to think of these outbursts as being in anyway representative of the majority opinion. Currently, for the Xbox 360 version of the title, the average user score for one of the biggest entertainment releases of the year stands at a wretched 3.0. A flood of 0/10s outnumbered ecstatic 10s and considered 7s and 8s by a dramatic margin. Soon after the game's release on Tuesday, savage user reviews began to appear on score aggregation site, Metacritic. It is a slick, well-constructed and generously proportioned instalment in one of the most revered military shooter franchises in history. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 has attracted near-universal critical acclaim.
