To an extreme extent: at the time of this posting, 402 negative to 96 positive on Metacritic. Compare that to the user scores for ME2: 78 negative to 1,048 positive. To be honest, I enjoy saying "I told you so" as much as the next guy, so I was starting to get a kick out of it...but even I don't want this.
No shit, sherlock. Have you paid attention the Metacritic for any seriously hyped game in the past few years? It's always like this. Metacritic is trash.

Say what you will about any of these games - they didn't deserve the "user" score they got.
Oh look, this came up a few months ago. Actually, there's stories of this for tons of games (Skyward Sword, Battlefield 3, Bastion, etc) but Metacritic has since deleted the offending negative reviews, hiding how dumb their system is and instead putting bandaids on it.
Trade yourself in for the perfect one. No one needs to know that you feel you've been ruined!
