A mode is a distinct configuration that varies gameplay and affects how other game mechanics behave, such as a single player mode vs a multiplayer mode.

A feature included in time attack or time trial modes in video games allowing the player to review their previous rounds. In racing games, for example, a "ghost car" may follow the last or fastest path a player took around the track. In fighting games, the ghost is an opponent that the computer AI player can train against outside of normal player versus player or story mode.

Ghost cars in racing games generally appear as translucent or flashing versions of the player's vehicle. Based on previously recorded lap times, they serve only to represent the fastest lap time and do not interact dynamically with other competitors. A skilled player will use the ghost to improve his time, matching the ghost's racing line as it travels the course. Many racing games, including Gran Turismo, F-Zero, and Mario Kart, offer a ghost function. Some also show ghosts set by staff members and developers, often showing perfect routes and lap times. A variation of the feature, dubbed by Firemonkeys Studios as "Time-Shifted Multiplayer", was implemented in the mobile racing game Real Racing 3. It works by recording the lap times of people in each race, and using statistics from other players for the game's artificial intelligence to recreate their lap times for the player to beat. The ghost cars can collide with the player and other vehicles, and are fully visible to the player.

Love Story On The Moon

by: Canadians

She’s sleeping on the couch
while the tv is on and loud
the background is the moon
a step closer to him
all the troubles she has fade away
she is moving in the air to the sky
he’s waiting for a chance
in the melancholy sea
the background is the moon
a step closer to her
he’ll try to keep away the pain of truth
now they are more than lovers tuned over time
far from downtown he can’t avoid her
one kiss, a smile and nothing else
to remind this moment
the speed of sound to catch this second
now they’re moving and leaving all behind
cause the sun is rising
and now that loneliness is back
