ModNation Racers: Fun Never Goes Out Of Style

but these have…

2012 “Jumped The Shark List

Zombies
Cupcakes
The current bacon frenzy *
Meme’s
Trolling
LOL, ROFL, TTYL, YOLO, BRB and of course BFF
Saying “that would make a great name for a band”
The term “Jump The Shark”
Athletes who claim “it’s not about the money”
… almost forgot planking! Definitely planking

One thing though, that never gets tired is fun and the ModNation franchise of games (PS3, PSP, Vita) ooze fun! (Actually that would make a great name for a band: “Oozefun”. Maybe “oozephun”? You’re welcome).
I’m sure you and my boss are both wondering the same thing… why do I bring this up?

Let me tell you… ModNation Racers Two-Year Anniversary Celebration Coming Soon!

The ModNation Racers Two-Year Anniversary (ModNationpaloozatwo) is only days away and it’s going to be a blast! We are working hard to put together a fun month of events surrounding our May 25th Anniversary. Let’s put aside our troubles and our 9-5 lives and just have a fun time! Play-Create-Share FTW!

We would love your input on some upcoming events…

“Road Trip” Community Hot Lap Challenge

Each week we will host a Community Hot Lap Challenge to see who can post the best time on selected tracks. The top three times will be mentioned here in this ModNation Monday blog for the world to see.

Last Week’s Hot Lap Results:

Track: “Seaside Speedway” by Sumsin25

1. ZlheckJr	13.936s
2. Punishthem420	14.205s
3. JuJitsu97	14.997s

So far (two months in) it looks like ZlheckJr and Punishthem420 are the “Road Trip” top racers to beat. Can you beat them? I’m sure they are up for the challenge!

* please note – I am a HUGE fan of bacon both literally and figuratively. I think it was the bacon toothpaste or the bacon taco that put it over the top.
