Completely destroys Forza 3 in everything.

ambientFLIER5315d ago

It's getting painful to read these lame flamebaits with no originality whatsoever.

Parapraxis5315d ago (Edited 5315d ago )

No, it's called Mod Nation Racers.
While it IS a kart racing game, It has it's own style, is extremely customizable, will have fantastic online features, a track builder, etc.

The KART aspect is the only major similarity that I see.

Screenshots look good (even if they are a bit small)
Great to see there is going to be a ton of unique locations in this game.
Can't wait to build some tracks and share them!

Yeah, if you click one from the 'gallery' and then click the screenshot in the 'screenshot viewer' you will see it enlarged (unless you have already done that). Sorry, I need to make the 'enlarge screenshot' option more obvious.

Saaking5315d ago

Mario Kart mixed with LittleBigPlanet. The game is looking amazing and so much fun. I can't wait, two great exclusive racers next year.

Parapraxis5315d ago (Edited 5315d ago )

Yo Toxic27,
I enlarged, they are just a little small (did you resize them?)
You should try to find a better gallery viewer for your site IMO. ;)

And I think the "Click to Enlarge" is plenty visible.

I'm not sure how easy it would be to find or install, but I think an image viewer similar to the one seen here:

would be better.

toxic275315d ago

Yeah, the gallery I currently have now is an old one that I kept on my computer from one of my earlier sites. Before implementing that one in, I did lots of searching for some good photo gallery scripts (I'm not very skilled in that section of PHP yet).

I saw that one (along with many others on other sites that looked very, very similar to that) but I had trouble finding a free script for it.

I guess my current one will do until I come across one similar to the one you posted.

xTruthx5315d ago

That link doesn't want to work 4 me

soljah5315d ago

it looks like Sony is putting alot of developer backing into this title. i would hope united front games get full support from the likes of the ice team, naughty dog, santa monica, mm and gg to make this another exclusive Sony show piece for the ps3.

swiftshot935315d ago

Whats your point? I hope you dont think a next gen Mario kart is a bad thing. Mixed with LBP customization and online features and we have an automatic winner.

Polluted5315d ago (Edited 5315d ago )

Even if it is a Mario Kart clone, if it can even come close to being as fun as Mario Kart, then I'm in.

So anyone see the screens? Is it badass? Won't load for me.

Edit: Oh, there it goes. Looks slick.

Bathyj5315d ago

Well Mariokart needs a good kick in the arse. It hasn't been good since the 64.

And yes I'm a huge MK fan, I've probably logged more hours on the SNES and 64 versions than any other game in my life.

40cal5315d ago

I did not expect the game to look that good considering its all built on the track editor, but that looks amazing.

Redempteur5315d ago

Godmars2905315d ago

How do I get one damn it!

:(

Redempteur5315d ago

Little big planet game of the year edition ?

I'm ready to enter my code ..i'm waiting for the mail annoncing the beta start

sikbeta5314d ago

Mario Kart? NO!!... thankfully for Playstation gamers we don't have to see the same character everywhere in every game at every time in every generation

ModNation Racers = M kart + LBP

Mario kart < innovation:

Mario kart 64 -> N64
Mario kart double dash -> GC
Mario kart wii -> wii

INNOVATION > monotony = the same over and over again

i dont know why, but this game looks so cool. it is one of my most anticipated games.

badz1495315d ago

fall in love with the game since the E3 presentation! MUST BUY!

omc_035315d ago

reminds me of the good ol' mario kart days, i've been looking forward to a good 4 player splitscreen game

Mc Fadge5315d ago

The PS3 lacks some good ol' friendly local multiplayer games to play when the friends come around

Chnswdchldrn5315d ago

they took one of the best aspects of LBP (face it, racing is like one of the coolest things to do in lBP) and made a game out of it. nice

Redempteur5315d ago

i love to shoot things with teh paintinator too ..

Modnation Racers and LittleBigPlanet Karting Servers Shutting Down

Sony Interactive Entertainment will be shutting the servers down for two PS3 racing games in July.

Teflon022239d ago

Sad, hopefully they make a new Modnation racers game. wait, is it completely shutting down or can you still download tracks?

pody2239d ago

This is what I'm wondering also. There's so much quality maps available online and it would be unfortunate if people couldn't download those anymore.

Teflon022238d ago

Yeah, I didn't play much online anyways. But I always use to play local multi with my cousin and download so many amazing levels. Sadly 8 didn't get to platinum it. Had only the create trophy, level 30 and 100 races i think left. I had I believe 87 last time 8 checked lol. Might go on to see if I can get my last few lol. Remember my win ratio was decent since I did around 160 races maybe, 170 ranked

pody2238d ago

@Teflon02
Yeah same here, but I actually jumped in not too long ago to play again and it's still holds up great for a 8 year old game. It's was a really good game when it came out and it still is.

Chaos_Order2239d ago

I had some good memories playing Modnation. :( Sad to see it go, but it was inevitable.

ModNation Racers: The Forgotten Gem

There were plenty of notably excellent PlayStation 3 exclusives that were one-and-done during its long history. Games like Mag, Starhawk, Heavy Rain and LittleBigPlanet Karting were solid titles that were not given a chance to expand on their potential with sequels. Ironically, the developer of LittleBigPlanet Karting, United Front Games, had another kart racing title prior to this. Its first game, ModNation Racers, successfully implemented an aspect that wasn’t done previously and hasn’t been done since.

I loved this game, and it's a crying shame that the studio closed eliminating the possibility of a PS4/PS4 Pro Modnation game :(

XisThatKid2507d ago (Edited 2507d ago )

Imho this is my fav kart racer. I still play Everhart now and then to this day.
Other than load times the game was excellent

danny8182507d ago

game was great. However it felt soules Mario Kart. The load times on the game for Psvita were beyond horrible

S-Word2507d ago

Sony should've kept going with this instead of turning to LittleBigPlanet Karting.
