Sony has officially announced today that United Front Games will be bringing its PlayStation 3 "Play, Create, Share" racer, ModNation Racers, to the PlayStation Portable.

The title appears to sport all of the features as its big brother -- kart customization, mod creation, full track creation, as well as single-player and online-multiplayer game modes. Impressive...  if they can pull it off.

The game's trailer, exclusive to GameSpot, makes it appear that they can. No word on a date, but GameStop shows it shipping during the same June timeframe as the PlayStation 3 version. Of note, this is the same GameStop listing that Sony wouldn't comment on a few months back.

Be sure to check out our full preview of the PlayStation 3 version of ModNation Racers for more info.

don't really care much about psp as a mobile gaming platform. But ModNation does look good on PS3 and if I ever care about the cart racing, I would snatch this one up on the 0 day release!!

Yehey! Another game for the psp! (There hasn't been a good one for a long time.)

Nice, I actually thought it was originally a PSP game, but hadn't looked into it and was disappointed to hear it was actually a PS3 game. I mean, from the screens and imprssions I read, it looked like a PSP game to a reasonable degree. Now that there is an actual PSP version I can move it into my "Do Want" category.

I quite enjoyed the beta, except for the terrible load times.

Hopefully they'll fix them and this will be pretty much Mario Kart on the PS3, minus the Mario, plus the whole creation thing.

Wonder how things will connect between the 3 and the P??

That and also minus the cheapest weapons in town: blue shell and lightning strike, and this would be an Epic Win.

I guess no reason to buy the PS3 version if 360 version will come out.
