Best Mario Kart yet
Everyone's favorite kart racer is back, this time in HD glory! "Mario Kart 8" (Nintendo Wii U, $60) sports new racing circuits, new characters and new items for your arsenal. A new feature is anti-gravity racing. On certain tracks, your karts can ride on walls and on ceilings. The true stars of the game are the tracks themselves — 32 in all. You may get nostalgic racing through tracks from previous versions of the game. Some go all the way back to the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. "MK8" supports four players locally and as many as 12 players online. This by far is the best Mario Kart yet.
