    I like the Michael Scott mod! The suit seems a little off, but the head is good! Is he unlocked? I might have to remix him... into "Secret Agent Michael Skarn"! 8-)

    CAG ModNation Racers Night [Wednesdays @ 10pm EST]

    MUST OWN THE SPOCK EARS!!!! This is a definite buy for me - that kart is pretty sweet too. I wonder which pieces will be useable in other creations?

    ModNation Racers -- General Info and Discussion

    That's exactly what I LIKE about it! Somewhere in the last decade, the term "kart racer" became synonymous with the term "kiddie game". The single-player modes in the original Mario Karts were HARD; they didn't just dumb them down so that a 7-year-old could easily beat them. I don't think that...

    CAG ModNation Racers Night [Wednesdays @ 10pm EST]

    "All the cool kids are playing ModNation Racers... Just one more game won't hurt you... C'mon, what are ya - chicken???" Ah, peer pressure - helping kids make uncomfortable decisions for years! 8-) Seriously though, unless that unplayed backlog contains some of the stellar PS3-exclusive AAA...

    ModNation Racers -- General Info and Discussion

    Thanks for reposting this - very useful! I'd been wondering about a couple of those. And for anyone who hasn't tried it - that green mine oil slick is WICKED. I think of it as a "glue slick" personally, because it'll bring anyone who drives through it to a dead stop. The higher the level of...

    CAG ModNation Racers Night [Wednesdays @ 10pm EST]

    I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for a price drop - I believe it took almost a full year for LittleBigPlanet to drop in price, and I would expect the same for ModNation Racers. On the plus side, though, it's one of the few PS3 games that's so good it's easily worth the full price! With the kind...

    Nice Bomberman! I'll have to track that one down when I get home. I also like the rocket ship - you should try and get an action shot when you're using the Warp weapon! If you do, post it up so we can see it! :applause:

    ModNation Racers -- General Info and Discussion

    If you double-tap X at the top of a ramp, you can double-jump - it lets you go a lot further, which gets you a lot more airtime points. Just make sure you're double-jumping, and using the shortcut to the giant jump off the broken pirate ship and you'll be fine. (P.S. If you haven't found the...

    Modnation Racers, Split/Second or Blur?

    Great review - I agree with you on pretty much everything! I love the strategy element to MNR with the shield vs. boost - it really makes a race require more thought; you can't just get by on reactions alone. And drifting just feels so... RIGHT. There's nothing better than watching your tires...

    ModNation Racers -- General Info and Discussion

    Holy crap, those are amazing! Not that it's somebody I'd want to race as, but that Bob the Builder at the end looks DEAD-ON. Like perfect - if you told me that was designed by the show creators, I'd believe you. I don't know if I'm late to the party on this one, but I went to download the...

    I'm picking up my copy after work - I can't wait!!! Has anyone tried to download the Kevin Butler mod that Sony announced in the new commercial? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-buGYgRBrIQ I definitely want that - I'm hoping it's available for download when I get home!

    Kevin Butler - VP of Washing My Car

    I love Kevin Butler - seeing him present at E3 would be pure WIN. :applause: I also love that Sony is giving away a Kevin Butler mod as DLC in ModNation Racers - that's one of the best ideas I've seen in a while! I'm definitely planning on grabbing that on Tuesday.

    Kevin Butler - VP of Washing My Car

    Sony put out a new Kevin Butler video yesterday, it seems. This one probably won't appear as a TV commercial, since it's a full 3 minutes long, but it's still completely awesome: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-buGYgRBrIQ Sony president Jack Tretton makes an appearance, and we get hints at...

    ModNation Racers -- General Info and Discussion

    I've been playing the demo, and so far, I absolutely love it! The controls feel just fine to me - drifting in particular feels smooth. I like the "strategy" elements, such as having to land your kart in the proper direction after a spin, and choosing between shield vs. boost. The winner for me...

    ModNation Racers -- General Info and Discussion

    Best... news... EVER!!! Now, I wish for world peace and a million bucks! Sony, I command you! :applause: I can't wait to download this as soon as I get home - I may even call in sick to work tomorrow just to spend a little extra time playing this... especially since anything we build in the...
