ModNation's Career mode contains some well-designed and varied tracks that feature insane jumps, devious traps, and time-saving shortcuts. This risk-reward mechanic makes the racing deep and exciting, as you need to master all these facets to succeed. You can choose to protect yourself from incoming attacks by diverting power to a shield, go faster by boosting, or take out opponents with a sideswipe. You're rewarded with points for jumping, stunting, drifting, and drafting, and these points fill up a power bar that fuels a number of different kart features. The basics are easy to understand, but ModNation Racers brings a lot of strategy to its gameplay. Each track features shortcuts, jumps, and boost pads, while collectible weapons such as rockets and electricity allow you to attack other racers. The racing itself should be familiar to karting veterans, as it's based on well-worn genre mechanics. This means that there's a constant flow of new stuff as you play, and the fun and varied challenges add to the game's addictiveness and replay value. Each race has its own criteria-you may have to collect a certain number of items or sideswipe a certain number of opponents, while longer-term goals, such as performing 1,000 drifts, unlock even more items.
There are two main goals: to finish each race above a certain position in order to qualify for the next event, and to meet objectives in order to unlock new creative content. ModNation Racers starts by dropping you into its single-player Career mode-a story-driven campaign where you aim to take a rookie driver to the top of the ModNation Racing Championship. The single player campaign is fun and addictive, but ModNation is best played with friends either online or locally. This iteration isn't as fully-featured as its PlayStation 3 counterpart, but judged on its own merits, the PSP version of ModNation Racers is a fun and rewarding entry into the kart racing genre. The single-player campaign is fun and rewards repeat play with new items, but the multiplayer mode is where the game thrives, with six-player connectivity both locally and online. It succeeds admirably, with a host of content and customisation tools for karts, tracks, and players, and excellent sharing facilities to easily upload your creations online. ModNation Racers aims to do for kart racers what Little Big Planet did for platformers: combine an established genre with a powerful creative toolset.
