Modnation Racer Review

Modnation Racers Review
By: Apple
Do you remember the times when you grabbed your nearest n64 controller to play some mario kart can hope you got the red turtle shells? now how old where you? don’t you wish that mario kart grew up with you, i do!
But today that old feelings return with United Front Games all new ip called ‘MODNATION RACERS’. Now you trade in the red turtle shells for some AAM (air-to-air missiles) that are um…..connected to your ride! (pause)…………Freaking sweet i know!!!!
If mario kart is for kids then Modnation Racers is for their parents. this game might look like a kids game from the package but don’t judge this book by its cover. the racer play by play commentary will prove that to you with one always making fun of the other and even at one time letting the player know that one announcer may have liked certain things from behind. (open to your sick thoughts)
Modnation racer lets you start off getting to know the game in a very cool tutorial, you race around a track and get to see the offerings. as you move along from race to race diffrent challenages await you. When you do complete a challenge you also get some very cool items to use in Modding yourself, car, track or even getting a lottery of items from the store.
And Modding is the name of the game, you can mod everything in this game from yourself, cars, trucks, go carts, gear, tracks and even makes popcorn! well maybe not popcorn but it should. they give you plenty of options to make yourself look like how you want to look with many diffrent options for colors, skins and body parts you can add. modnation did not slack on gear either, you get hundreds of options to make yourself look like Mario, Luigi, iron man, spider man, batman, MR.T, Michael Jordan, endless!!!
Did i also mention that the game comes with a 4 player spit screen, just like the old days when your friends wanted to come over and see a turtle shell coming right up the butt!! even better now, its a missile!!!!!!
The Vehicles are some of the best and funniest things you can mod, you have everything from a Big block Chevy V8 to a beer Jug. yup i said beer jug! one of the funnest things i have seen is a guy in a Jason mask riding in a truck with a human heart as an engine. yup i said human heart, sure hope those arteries don’t clog. the tires and paint is also endless, you can make any car you dream up even a 1966 batmobile……um this was my ride Mod. (smiley face)



Endless is a key word and if you hop in this world you can see for yourself. The tracks are well built and also giving you the option to make your own tracks and load them up and share them with the Modnation community. you can share everything from your cars, gear and tracks and download other tracks from the community or cars or character creations.
Modnation Racers makes you feel like a kid again but with out having the kid parts from Mario kart. did i also mention you can punch another driver…even if its a girl!!!
The downside to Modnation Racers is the load times, it can take a minute or more to get in a racer, but as i write this i have read that a patch is coming soon to fix the load times. so in that case the downside is Modnation Racers did not come out 15 years ago.
Modnation Racers is out for the PS3 and PSP and will cost you $60. not a lot of games are worth $60 bucks these days but Modnation Racers earns your money.
I give Modnation Racers
