Since I do not seem to be able to communicate why I believe that there is something wrong with X-Play scoring here is a chart that should help. This shows the difference between the X-Play score and the MetaCritic Average for 15 recent games on each console. The list was gathered from the MetaCritic list of recent and current games sorted alphabetically. The number fifteen is based on the fact that it was all the Wii reviews available. Interestingly, 15 only got to the "N"s in both the PS3 and Xbox360 meaning that review twice as many games on each of the HD consoles as they do on the Wii.
As you can see there is a HUGE fricking difference in the pattern of scores. You can also note that their 5 point system is NOT the problem because they manage to almost always get within 10 pts of the average for all games except Wii games that they dislike. These get the big dump. This is my last word on the topic because anyone that can look at this and not see a problem obviously lives in a parallel universe. If it looks OK to you, FINE, just keep taking the medication.
