Of course it'll be better, have you seen the physics of that game? A Kart Racing game that hernesses the full pwer of the PS3 and plus you can build your own levels, awesome

I'd like to see some interesting obstacle tool palettes. If you can generate enough track diversity it could potentially rival or surpass Mario Kart. I don't like Mario Kart, I don't know why, maybe I'm crazy, but I do know that that video of Modnation made the tracks look a little bland. I've seen all that stuff in the demo, I want to see some smashy bashy stuff and interesting obstacles. The twisty turnies and the scenery only goes so far.

I thought Mario Kart Wii was great from what I played which wasn't long because when I played we played 4 people on a team and one of them couldn't control the game so he turned off the game and put Wii Sports in so he could Bowl.

Its people's preference to be honest. I think Mod Nation racers is going to be a great game for people who like creativity and racing.

I think Mod Nation Racers have potential but Mario Kart games have always been that anyone can pick up and play and have fun type of game. Hopefully MNR already have great tracks in the game already for those that doesn't really want to create their own. Also I hardly created any levels for LBP but when I did I always made some sort of car. So I think I might like MNR level editor even more. Can't wait to check it out.

That is what I was thinking, I also love how customizable everything is. Shame this isn't on the Xbox 360. The game looks amazing though.

Should I say it? Ok I'm going to say it. Mario Kart Wii was aweful! The game was great on the DS, had nice online, and was continually fun. On the wii, it was terrible. Whether mod nation racers will be better mostly depends on the items and if you can make corners.

We don't know that yet. Plus if your good at Mario Kart you can avoid most of the weapons.

If there are more than just mountains and lakes in terms of the environment along with more...'Dynamic' obstacles e.g flamethrowers and cannons, then I'd say it stands a chance. We're also going to need to see more of the item pickups and character/car customization and last but not least, a music creator.

The track editor is a very cool feature but I doubt it'll allow anyone to make something crazy like this. :P

if the creation set is as deep as lbp and core gameplay is satisfying enough, it could be as good but doubt it will sell as well. i hope it has some good creative tracks and modes to start as well. it has potential

After destroying Mario Kart DS, the Wii version was a massive letdown. Felt like I was just playing the same game on a tv. As if I was able to video-out my DS and add a Wii-mote controller.

MNR looks interesting. Probably won't have the mass market appeal, but I can see myself having more fun with it than Mario Kart Wii. But the real question is will it be better than Mario Kart DS, at least for me.

This thing better be running at 60 fps and offer good gameplay. As long as the gameplay is bad, it will be amazing.

If it has great gameplay, it's going to be a must buy.

Anyways, good gameplay+ridiculous amount of customization = WIN!

You know people are gonna make some crazy tracks and the overall top ten after the game has been out a few years will be full of win. There will obviously be Mario Kart tracks in there that people have made.

I think the developers should aim for a level of creatability where gamers can clone all Mario Kart levels down to a T :D.

do you guys think part of what makes most of the mario kart games so good is the characters and weopons though? there is something about shooting turtle shells and dropping bananas. i know im in the minority but i love mario kart wii. of course its the only game worth a piss on wii's online service (although i here brawl is getting better). im really hoping mod racers hits the level of creation that LBP does.

They should have called it LBP Kart Racing.

Sony needs to start using known characters to start selling more.

Sackboy should be made like Mario and the only way to do that is to start putting him in more games.

The characters for Mod Nations look ugly-- imagine having Sackboys to race around, fully customizable and whatnot.


Seriously, they need to bring LittleBigPlanet/Sackboy's name into this title in order for it to appeal to more audiences.

It's basically MK + Creation tool. That alone makes it better than Mario Kart..

It is going to be great due to its level creation tool which is awesome but gameplay wise it will feel like all Kart games that were released after Mario Kart: a not so refreshing and unoriginal game. Therefore it has its pros and cons.

This game looks like MySims kart Racing. Bad character models and carts. It won't do nearly as well as Mario Kart.

I know. The weapons shown for MNR have a really "generic" (yes, there it is again!) feel to them. You can't get the same level of enjoyment from getting someone with a missile over ownage with a red shell. BUT, if the development team is creative enough, we still might get some killer flashy weapons (most hopefully innovative) that will take advantage of the superior graphics possible on the PS3 thus making them fun to use. :D

I would say it does because creating your own tracks sounds like fun I have wanted to do that in Mario Kart for ages.
