The whole review system is broken and many-problemed. I don't know that explicit bribery is all that common.

Many things I dislike about so-called "Triple-A Games" may be the result of publishers using Metacritic scores as leverage against developers, and the subsequent push for the inclusion of features or elements reviewers will respond favorably to, as opposed to just making a game a designer thought would be cool. In other words, big budget games exist to satisfy reviewers, because positive reviews translate to sales. Ostensibly.

Metacritic is a big part of the problem. Nearly everything about it has had a negative impact on gaming.
