The racing itself is balls to the wall awesome, though, adding new layers to the kart formula by way of the defensive shield and some very cool power-ups like a warp tunnel and cluster rockets. In a game where customization and investigation are driving forces, this is an egregious flaw. While offering tips and tricks for racing, the loading screens inhibit the player's sense of experimentation by punishing them for simply poking around. The interminable waits persist throughout menus and lobbies, also.
These continue once you actually start the game proper, too, typically lasting 45 seconds or more between selecting a race and starting said race. After popping the disc into your PS3, and before you even set foot in a career race, you're left staring at various circular progress icons for three solid minutes. With ModNation Racers Sony wants to cluster-rocket Nintendo out of the kart-racing limelight.įor the most part, it succeeds, but the bigger picture remains mired by rampant and lethargic load speeds.
