ModNation Monday: New DLC, Spotlight on Scary Creations

There is just something about this game that keeps us coming back for more…

– Is it the creative, unique music and art style? Possibly.
– Is it the friendly online racing community? Could be.
– Is it the ability to create (and share!) your own racing “universe”? Strong point there.
– Is it the “witty” commentary in this ModNation Monday blog? Mmmmm… no.

It could be a host of these and many more features that make ModNation Racers the racing game that we just can’t put down. We refer to it as the ModNation “Mojo” and it’s getting stronger every day thanks to you.

1. Scary Pink Monster by DrPeanuts
2. Killer Clown by The-Piranha
3. Bloody Skull by Dutch-Commander
4. Scary Clown by Evilgoat1
5. ScaryThing by PirateNatty

Mark: “Yikes! The clowns are still following me from last week. Won’t they just GO AWAY!?” Per my shrink’s request, next week’s keyword will be “Happy” (if there is a clown in there I am going to request a short leave of absence).

If you come across any “happy” Mods or Karts that you’d like to share, please post them on our Facebook page. Include the creation title and creator’s name. We’d love to see them!

Track of the Week: Beverley Hills Bonanza! by atheistsw

Mark: “I am not sure if atheistsw has ever visited Hollywood but as someone who has many a time I’ll save you all the plane fare… his re-creation of the L.A. / Hollywood area is actually better than the real thing!” Great design AND racing! Loved it! A+

Mod and Kart of the Week

Mod: Volt by Stitchless Kart: Charged by Stitchless

Stitchless says “I bring you, Volt… an electrified bot, super charged for quick movements, his kart is built to withstand the high speeds it moves at.”

Mark says “Really cool detail and design scheme! Great job Stitchless!” This guy has MNR Superhero written all over it! Now all we need is his story (click here).
