You can't blame Bioware for trying.

After mixed reviews and most saying the sequel fails to live up to its predecessor, a Bioware employee by the name of Chris Hoban has been caught redhanded trying to Skew metacritic's overall average.

EA's response to this whole ordeal? "Of course the people who make the game vote for their own game. That's how it works in the Oscars, that's how it works in the Grammy's and why I'm betting that Barack Obama voted for himself in the last election." [Thanks Kotaku]

It's one thing to be proud of your work, but quite another to justify what they've done. Our suggestion to avoid any confusion: wait for our review of Dragon Age 2!
