Mario Kart 8

Date played: June 28th
Platform: Wii U
Session fun rating: 8/10

Online races are really fucking close most of the time
I played a dozen online races in split screen with my girlfriend. I wasn't that hot tonight... I didn't manage a win, even though I placed in the top three about 5 times. I placed in the lower tiers more than I expected though. I think one of the reasons was that we got matched with highly ranked players, and it shows. My girlfriend is getting better and better. She's starting to learn the tracks a bit more, which makes it easier for her. We unlocked a few more items for our karts, including a cool looking horse carriage thing that has stats that fit my style.
