Can a Single Title Save a Console?
The tune many are singing right now is that Mario Kart 8 is a make-or-break title for the Wii U. While I originally agreed, a brief conversation with GamesReviews' own Mat Growcott made me change my mind, slightly. My take on the situation is that one game does not save a system, but, if released at a crucial time, it can be the catalyst that changes everything.

Bethesda has held tight, often refusing to even acknowledge these rumours exist. Why? Probably because their new-gen titles are nowhere near ready.
