Modnation gets props for putting a community gaming concept as it's main focus. User Generated content should not be frowned upon. Especially considering how well done it looks for the most part. That said the actual racing isn't as tight as say Mario Kart for my own liking, but it's fun. There is this shockwave power that's super awesome, and your characters taunt the racers around them :)jg4xchamp
*Remembers all the game nights we had* Yeah, I can see why you like that.:P

mD- I like the charm. Also that it'[s... fun. I don't know, when I play Mario Kart with my brother, I always get the Blue Shell, just before the finish line. I ALWAYS lse. And I don't care, I burst out in laughter. It's that fun. MNR lacks that crucial element of fun that all Mario Karts have. Nothing objective here, you see. It's all purely subjective, my opinion. The only way I'd support this is by saying tha majority agrees with me.

Little Big Planet is the Mario killer because... FACT.

3D Dot Game Heroes is the Zelda killer because... FACT.

Modnation Racers the the Mario Kart killer because... FACT.

There you go. I added FACT at the end of each sentence, which saved me the effort of elaborating after "because..." Trey 4evar. I win System Wars. FACT.

It seems that Modnations is better in every way.

The_Cygan

Because you said "insert franchise here" killer to it, sales wise Modnation Racers is doomed.

1) In MNR, have you seen what 1000 rockets does to someone who doesn't block it? It's a beautiful thing to watch when a kart and it's racer get blown out of his seat. When it happens to you, it makes the blue shell look like a pat on the wrist, lol... 2) So your reason is simply that you feel it's fun and MNR is not because it doesn't have the same charm or Nintendo themes you've learned to love like blue shells, mario, luigi, etc. You didn't mention anything about gameplay, visuals, etc. And these are your reasons why MNR could never be considered better than Mario Kart. Wow.

mD I said it was my opinion. Yes, I love Nintendo and its characters and its ingenious design. So I obviously have a bias. Shoot me. If you want cold hard facts, Mario Kart has better character design, better track design, better karts, better soundtrack, better graphics aesthetically. Is that enough for you? And gameplaywise, MNR doesn't even hold a candle to Maro Kart, heck, Sonic All Stars was better.

Diddy Racing Kong was way better than Mario Kart 64. Some would say that Crash Team Racing was also better than Mario Kart 64... In fact, Mario Kart DS and Mario Kart Wii was better than Mario Kart 64...

He does need to flesh out his opinion more, but charm counts for so much in these games.

I'm not even going to bother arguing with you because you aren't making any points at all. Please at least act like you've played MNR before comparing games.

I HAVE played MNR. And I find Mario Kart better. It's actually simple, it's called an opinion. I find nothing wrong if you find MNR better, but I disagree with you. You disagree with me. Let's just leave it at that.

W/e I understand you have a Nintendo bias, but it's a good idea to back up your opinions or beliefs. Saying the graphics are better, the gameplay is better, etc and delcaring it as "cold hard facts" isn't going to cut it if you don't explain how/why it's better.

There hasn't been a good Mario Kart game in a long time. It's dead all on it's own. Modnation racers is doing what Nintendo should've done.EmperorSupreme
Last good Mario Kart was the one for the DS...and it was good :D

MK Wii wasn't a bad game by any means, lol.. the only bad part about it they messed up the battle mode as it had a lot more potential. Mario Kart Wii is currently Nintendo's best online game (since they messed up Brawl)

i dont understand how a sony exclusive could kill a nintendo exclusive, or visa versa, it doesnt really seem like they would effect eachothers sales very much...

either way they are both fun games, i think they can learn alot from each other to make better games.

Nothing can replace Mario Kart but the one game I liked no I LOVED over mario kart was KART RIDER, best kart game I have ever played... if Kart Rider ever makes it to consoles then Mario Kart will be officially dethroned... as far as Modnatons and mario kart.... will reserve judgement untill I play the demo.

Mario cart wii was a rehash. If a game isnt an revolution or evolution it fails.

It was a revolution, control scheme changed to tilt based. It's awesome. Evolution aswell, they added stunts + new tracks of high quality.

Games like motorstorm had done motion for car movement before an there wasn't enough added which evolved the gameplay from previous versions
