Destructoid: According to a GameStop listing, United Front Games' upcoming create-play-share racer ModNation Racers for PlayStation 3 may also be making its way to the PlayStation Portable. Simply listed as ModNation (and separate from the ModNation Racers listing for PlayStation 3), the PSP title looks slated to ship no earlier than June of next year.
"Unfortunately, we can't comment on rumors or speculation related to ModNation Racers," a Sony rep told us when we contacted them about the potential PSP racer.
Mario Kart has always reigned supreme when it comes to the best kart racers out there to play, but there are still a few other racers that are must-plays.
Sony Interactive Entertainment will be shutting the servers down for two PS3 racing games in July.
Sad, hopefully they make a new Modnation racers game. wait, is it completely shutting down or can you still download tracks?
This is what I'm wondering also. There's so much quality maps available online and it would be unfortunate if people couldn't download those anymore.
Yeah, I didn't play much online anyways. But I always use to play local multi with my cousin and download so many amazing levels. Sadly 8 didn't get to platinum it. Had only the create trophy, level 30 and 100 races i think left. I had I believe 87 last time 8 checked lol. Might go on to see if I can get my last few lol. Remember my win ratio was decent since I did around 160 races maybe, 170 ranked

Yeah same here, but I actually jumped in not too long ago to play again and it's still holds up great for a 8 year old game. It's was a really good game when it came out and it still is.
I had some good memories playing Modnation. :( Sad to see it go, but it was inevitable.
There were plenty of notably excellent PlayStation 3 exclusives that were one-and-done during its long history. Games like Mag, Starhawk, Heavy Rain and LittleBigPlanet Karting were solid titles that were not given a chance to expand on their potential with sequels. Ironically, the developer of LittleBigPlanet Karting, United Front Games, had another kart racing title prior to this. Its first game, ModNation Racers, successfully implemented an aspect that wasn’t done previously and hasn’t been done since.
I loved this game, and it's a crying shame that the studio closed eliminating the possibility of a PS4/PS4 Pro Modnation game :(
Imho this is my fav kart racer. I still play Everhart now and then to this day.
Other than load times the game was excellent
game was great. However it felt soules Mario Kart. The load times on the game for Psvita were beyond horrible
it's bound to come on the psp just like lbp, I would love it to be on psp and let the quys who did the lbp psp port it.
There's no release date for the PS3 version and yet there is word about a PSP version? Oy.
Anyone else have a voucher for the beta? I need someone to EAT MY DUST as I past them!! BWUHAHAHA!
It will surely be another flop for the flop handheld.

I want Modnation Racers now. now now now now now now now now now now now now now now now now now now now now now

It's becoming increasingly clear that all Sony does is say to both first, second and third party development...
'You made a popular game that was well liked by fans on the PS3, now find a way to put it on the PSP.'
I have a feeling this is how Valkyria Chronicles 2 ended up on the PSP instead of the PS3 where it belonged. If the new PSP is going to get heavy on the download games I don't see why they can't just let us play them on the PS3.
