Hi @baljitchaddha -

The rating displayed is correct, as based on the calculations used to generate all ratings for all titles in the database. 

Please remember that the rating is weighted - we don't simply calculate the average by adding up all the votes and dividing the total by the number of votes. To prevent abuse and minimize attempts to stuff the ballot (otherwise influence the integrity of the voting system), we don't reveal details about how weighted ratings are calculated other than what is already documented. 

For more information visit our rating FAQ.

Cheers!
