ModNation Racers

This is a racing game in which players can create and customize their own go-karts and race against others on colorful tracks. During races, players can collect power-ups ("cartoony" missiles, bombs, electricity attacks, etc.) that can be used to slow down opponents. Racers react to damage by appearing "dizzy," or getting briefly shocked; some attacks result in brief explosions on the track, as racers are sent flying off screen. Commentators and racers sometimes engage in slapstick humor: a character wears red underwear while dancing on the sports desk; a racer picks his nose and makes a flicking gesture; a commentator pinches a character's neck, causing him to pass out. Dialogue contains lines such as "You succumbed to my atomic wedgie" and "Hugging is for Girl Scouts, hippies...and eye-talians."
