ModNation Racers

ModNation Racers is a kart racing game that combines player-favorite tracks and comic book combat with the extreme customization and user-generated content expected of a modern online multiplayer title. Players can look forward to exceptional kart handling and physics technology that includes drifting, jumping and boosting, as well as easy-to-master customization options for the in-game racers, their karts and the tracks they race on.

Story

The story revolves around the player, commonly referred to as the "tagger" or "tag", who remains silent during in-game cutscenes. Biff Tradwell and Gary Reasons, the commentators of the Modnation Racing Championship, announce the qualification for this season's MRC tour. Tag lives with his mother in the family paint shop, where business has been slow for a long time. When he shows his mother an MRC poster, she informs him that his grandfather is Chief Crew-Chief, which, along with his own kart, is all he needs to qualify. Chief criticizes Tag's choice of kart decoration, but agrees to be his crew chief. After qualifying for the MRC Tour and becoming popular with fans for his unique style, Tag's uncle Richard, the head of Conservative Motors, a company that makes cheap, boring and uninteresting karts, tries to offer him a sponsorship deal, which he quickly turns down. Halfway through the home tour, Tag's mother reveals that they can't afford the constant repairs on his kart. When the kart breaks down, Tag's mother is inspired by her son's newfound popularity to reopen the paint shop as a body shop, which is immediately well received by customers and allows them to stay afloat financially.
