Yup, your PS3 crashes, while corrupting your game save and scratching your disk, so you have to go out and buy a new ps3 and a copy of the game and start over. Meanwhile you realise all the online rooms have been taken over by latecomers who like nothing more than to drive the wrong way round all the tracks causing huge collisions because they can't be bothered to learn how to play a game that's "Sooooo 2010"
Alternatively, you could go outside check out that mysterious golden orb hanging in the sky and realise your skin isn't meant to be that strange tint of slightly bluish white and maybe find something more productive to do with your life. At least that's what I'm hoping for.
