If you haven’t heard, we at San Diego Studio are proudly bringing the ModNation franchise to the much anticipated PlayStation Vita and we would like to tap into the brilliant minds that have conceived over two million amazing MNR creations by asking for your input. What do YOU think the title of the upcoming release should be? To help your creativity here are some details about the upcoming game.
- All PS3 user creations will be available on day one for the vita.
- Create a track in only seconds by drawing it with your finger.
- With the power of the back touch you can raise terrain with a simple touch. Likewise the front touch screen allows you to lower terrain in a simple yet powerful manner.
- The fun of ModNation kart racing remains intact with the advantage of dual analog sticks.
It is a great time for technology and the PS Vita gives you a wealth of tools to work with. And this is only the tip of the iceberg! We have much more exciting information to share with you in the upcoming months, so keep your eyes peeled here on the PlayStation.Blog and ModNation.com.

This ought to be fun! And now, back to your regularly scheduled ModNation Monday update!

Let the freaks come out at night!

TEAM TRACK CHALLENGE: The Nation That Creates Together Stays Together!
A short while ago we presented a Team Track Challenge to the ModNation community. We randomly placed interested participants together in teams of three with a goal a designing one united track for each team. Teams consisted of MNR “Hall of Famers” and rookie first time track builders to see what they could dream up. We wondered if players could truly PLAY CREATE and SHARE together. Final verdict – YOU’D BETTER BELIEVE IT!!!
Below are five of our favorites that will be showcased in Top Tracks all this week. Do yourself a favor and run a few races with you and your friends. These are truly gems in the ModNation crown. Congrats to ALL the teams on their tracks and the fun they had working together.

Creations of the Week
Track of The Week:
Land of Myths by manlius10a
If someone can make a better track next week or this month, I will be VERY surprised! Players constantly ask me what I look for in a track, this is it! ABSOLUTELY beautiful environment and a great, intense race. I love the little touches like the sunlight angle. At high noon this track would look totally different and this choice makes the colors so rich and saturated, those are the small things that can take a track from a 4 star to a 5 star in my opinion.
Hot Lap Tracks:

Hey ModNation… have fun naming your next favorite video game!
Modnation Racers: flow
Modnation racers connect
Modnation racers: acceleration
Modnation racers: Joyride
Modnation racers: impact
( I believe impact to be a good subtitle because it refers to many things. It refers to cars making impact into each other, it refers to making an impact in the community and finally it refers the physical impact you make with the screen and controller on the touch portion.)
Modnation racers: creative touch
