Well I generally read one or two reasons:

1. VGC reviewers focus more on gameplay and mechanics and less on presentation than other sites (which is true and fair). Or:

2. The VGC reviewers who are pro-PS3/360 are most strict, while the Wii/DS reviewers are more lenient (which is not a good excuse at all).

Then again, just about every HD review I've written has been at least a couple points under the Metacritic, so I'm not one to complain.
