Do games for each console need to have the same average score for the source to not be biased?

Not at all. A source appears biased when it's scores are badly out of synch with all other reviewers.

If  Magazine A rates PS3 games higher than the average of all other reviwers 90% of the time and the Wii lower 90% that would tend to show a bias.

If the magazine was Playstation Fanatic then that's acceptable. When it's essentially an advertisement for the largest game retailer, it is not acceptable.

 

What's the point of having multiple review sources if you want them all to be "in sync?"
