What are yall's thoughts on the "xbox tax"?

Kinda hard to not see something is up when sites like metro review games lower because they didn't release anything prior. Meta scores on xbox being much lower than their counterpart, inb4 the opencritic dent shills for open.

Or are xbots just delusional.

Imho, "Xbox tax" is real, as much as "Nintendo Bonus". I mean, MS's penalty isn't nearly as big as Ninty's "free pass" and "favoritism", but it exists on a small scale.

I agree that xbox does get taxed especially recently, I don't really get how nintendo gets a free pass? Most of nintendos games don't review particularly high compared to others aside from maybe zelda and 3d mario. I feel like sony are the main ones that get a free pass sometimes. I enjoy most of sony's games but outside of technical aspects they aren't really anything special with some exceptions. Most of the sequels they've made this gen have been kind of underwhelming.
