As in Diddy Kong Racing, the more power-ups you collect, the more potency you add to the original pick-up. The power-ups fall into four categories: boost, missile, sound, and lightning. ModNation Racers introduces quite a few variations on these themes, though. The gameplay is based around karting staples-drifting and drafting are key, while power-ups and boost pads keep the action frantic. It’s a brilliantly implemented system, with seamless online integration providing a stream of new content. There's a clear emphasis on sharing at all times-you can drive up to anything you see and press the square button to browse, rate, and download items. The hub also highlights some of the highest rated content from users around the world, with statues of user-created characters, such as Mario, Ryu, and Spider-Man, and karts that have been made to look like locomotives, aeroplanes, or even the A-Team van. If you're online, the world is populated by other racers whom you can communicate with, share content with, or challenge to a race. You can select game modes either by browsing the menu system or by physically driving your kart to the corresponding area of the hub. Once you've played the first tutorial race, you're dropped into ModNation Racers' central hub, which connects all of the play, create, and share elements of the game.
