Abstract: Carrying Sony’s new mantra of play, create, and share, Modnation Racers was revealed during the company's E3 2009 press conference to a surprised crowd. When compared to the rest of the showings, many of which were leaked in the weeks leading up to the...
Abstract: A bend in the road approaches when suddenly another driver cuts inside and zooms past. It’s brash, arrogant, but nothing compared to what the driver of the passing vehicle does. He turns slightly and facially signals what he thinks of you and your driv...
It’s a shame that something as seemingly inconsequential as the load times is the main problem with a game as good as ModNation Racers, but I guess that speaks to the overall quality of everything else. The driving is fun, the creating is deep but easy...
Has recognisable kart racing mechanics, good online capabilities, custom content can be shared with other players

Would have been nice to be able to tweak Kart performance more, Career mode commentators are irritating and it's a little bit boring
and scoreThat fun factor could have been multiplied if karts handled differently. In Mario Kart (sorry to refer to it again) you have a roster of characters that all have different strengths and weaknesses on the track; and that works extremely well. ...
Even as a karting game ModNation Racers puts the likes Sonic to shame, but add the immense levels of creativity and this is a class apart. It has some technical issues, but once the community comes it should make a worthy partner to Sackboy’s adventure...
