If i may state my opinion, i think it is a question of "average". many people doesn' t like to give "maximum" rating on any game, even if they liked it a lot - i know that because i am one of these
(i never rated a game with "1", and i never rated a game with "5" :whistle: ok, maybe once or twice LOL )
so basicly, if someone rates game with a "4" and tought the game was pretty good, and someone that played the game and doesn' t think much of it rates it with "2", the average will became "3" (holly crap, i' m trying to explain that Gauss thing like if that was important
)

i think most people doesn' t rate extreme, so it is natural that most games present an average rating (something in the middle of the scale from "1" to "5" => "3")
i also think that if the ratings were from "1" to "10", most games would be rated at "6" or "7"
