Damn, that's pretty cool. Maybe this will turn out just like the LBP beta. After just a couple hours the beta started there already were pretty amazing levels to be found.
I wish I was in the beta. Is Dtoid going to give away some codes maybe?

The creativity used on these so far is amazing, and they really only gave us a few parts and some stickers to mess with. Loving the variety, although some characters just aren't made for it [Ganondorf is scaring the hell out of me].
I made two Jins [Blazblue and Tekken] last night, I might put images of them in a c-blog later today, with some impressions.

Awesome! Those are really cool (and why didn't I think of something like that... my lil avatar feels so generic now!)

A platformer with an emphasis on user-generated content = LittleBigPlanet
A racing game with an emphasis on user-generated contend = ModNation Racers
Hmm... I wonder what we'd get if they made games of other genres in this style? What would an FPS with an emphasis on user-generated content be like? Or an RPG?

The other game that CAN be compared to this is LBP, same focus of user created content, and that sold 2.8M copies worldwide. That was at $60, and that did not stop it from becoming a success.
So, the indication is that this will be a success, maybe on par with LBP.

I must say, I'm loving the Beta.
I personally enjoy making the karts more than the people. Track creator is great too!
Modnation is firmly on my "to buy" list thanks to the beta.

I made a Mr. Destructoid but it is nowhere on the level of these. I also saw a really good Mickey Mouse character someone made.
I haven't been able to get into a race yet and there is a lot of loading. The driving also does not feel as tight as Mario Kart but that probably has more to do with me trying out only dirt tracks so far. The presentation of this game is a lot better and funnier than I was expecting.

I've been having fun with the beta, but it seems like the network drops me after every race/timetrial. So I'm not getting my XP saved and my ghosts aren't accessible by me or my friends later. Anyone else with these issues?
(it seems to have saved the created stuff I did though)

I made a mod called Steve
Steve was raised, and mentally abused, by circus performers...

Does anyone know if sony owns the right for the genre play create and share? As good as it would be for sony and for a person who preferes ps3 I don't mind it, but I would love to see what other developers could come up with.
@sprldr
They made a whole slew of them for RPGs called RP maker. The ones they for council however we're failures as it was so limited as to what you could do that it was almost not worth it. The computer ones are where it's at.

Does anyone know if sony owns the rights for the genre play, create and share? Thought it does benefit sony and I do prefere the ps3 so I don't mind, but I would really like to see what other developers could come up with.
@SayWord
no, nobody owns the right to any genre of videogames. anybody can make games like these, as long as they aren't blatant rip offs of the LBP or MN IPs.

I'm still waiting for someone to do a LBP-style 2D Fighter Maker, where you can make fighting games using an engine similar to SF4. A "2D Fighter in 3D" would make character creation so much easier for the common person. If they could pull it off great, with character, stage and maybe even system creation and sharing, it could be epic.
Everytime I wax on about this, someone always says "Hurr Hurr, there's already MUGEN!" They seem to not understand that MUGEN's community is about as fun as a WWE vs Dragon Ball Z Forum and that creating a character is about as user friendly as a 747.

Some of those are really good, but focusing on only gaming really limits the scope of showing off ModNation Racers. I have seen some insane shit in there. Mickey Mouse, a murderous Ronald McDonald, Winnie the Pooh, Boba Fett, Batman, Joker... I even made a sweet Riddler and MotorStorm logo guy.
That game has an awesome character creator. Hopefully everything comes together for it because if not... wasted potential.

My two main creations that I use, though not gaming related I suppose. :D
Whiplash turned just a bit too quick: http://upload.netheril.com/pfiles/359/Whiplash.JPG

hopefully this game doesn't get the stigma of being for kids like LBP. it's disappointing that something so potentially inspiring gets the brush because of the cemented mentality that a games depth and value is measured by what it does for you and not what can be done with it.
