You have to laugh when you watch this video, because within the first minute you can hear R3y say aloud while he films, “This is such a Colette post.” He’s quite right, despite the fact I don’t play a lot of racing games — but the thing my eye picked up on immediately about ModNation Racers is the obvious influence from designer vinyl toys, which I happen to know a little something about.
As you can see in the video, the game allows you to choose from plenty of ready made characters or use its built in creation tools to make your own. So basically, it’s like MarioKart meets Kid Robot with a dash of LittleBigPlanet thrown in for good measure. Fun? Sure looks like it. We’ll let you know more as soon as we get hands on time with this one on the show floor.
