View Full Version : Pure!
Holy crap! Pure is awesome! Go to Gamestop and see if you can talk them into giving you the demo! :D They have demo discs behind the counter.
The graphics are incredible. The gameplay is intense and fast. And the trick system is really good! Tricks build one one another. The more tricks you do, the more tricks become available during a run. And there is boost to make you faster.
It is like SSX on ATVs!
antwon412 08-29-08, 07:35 PM ooohh demos huh? i think ill have to stop buy i am anxiously awaiting this one. too many good games and not enough money!

This is the fix for SSX until a new one comes out. The game looks great too. I wish the demo didn't kick you out because you have to go through the tutorial again. Day 1 purchase.

on the PS3 demo, which I assume is the same, after the race you can hit square to restart the Italy track. Assuming the demo is the same, there may be a similar button to press on the 360.

Yes! I hit start and simply restart the race.
jasonstiller 08-30-08, 06:11 PM this one came outta left field for me. This is a definate buy for sure! I was gonna give the sex comparison too ha ha.
whiskey > work 08-30-08, 07:55 PM I've been waiting for this type of game. A graphical masterpiece and great gameplay.
tdogroeder 08-31-08, 09:35 AM when does this release for the 360?
tdogroeder 08-31-08, 09:45 AM September 23rd.
Thanks.
Cygnus311 08-31-08, 02:11 PM Hopefully they release the demo online. GameStop wouldn't give me one. They said you had to put $5 down on the game. I offered to put $5 down on Viva Pinata 2 or NHL 09 instead. I said, "You're kidding me right? That's like putting a down payment on a car I'm taking for a test drive." The 16 year old girl behind the counter looked at me like I was speaking Swahili.

Put $5 down. Next time you're in, cancel it. Free demo.
I just read that Pure will have 16 player online multiplayer! Awesome! :D

Did you watch the video loop after completing a race. I was able to get the special moves when you hold down both LB/RB. It talks about 16 players online and customization. It also shows off some of the moves which states it will be 70 in all.

Mindwarper 09-02-08, 02:24 PM Is this a race type game? Not trick based? I want a new ssx type game. I can't wait if it truly has MP.
It is primarily a race game with tricks that give you boost to go faster in the race. Just like SSX's race modes. So trick big to get big boost and go super fast. But if your trick goes bad, you're going to end up losing a few places in the race. A very good risk/reward model that is very similar to SSX.
It will ship with 35 tracks.
The demo is going up on XBox Live and PSN on Thursday.
Cygnus311 09-02-08, 10:27 PM 35 tracks?! I assume that's from re-workings of 8 or so environments?
antwon412 09-03-08, 09:23 AM ^^^^ just out of PURE (haha!) curiosity, why do you expect all the tracks to be of the same environment? Thier PS2 atv games were pretty good with having really different tracks. I expect it to be no different. From all i have read and heard about the game, they dont really seem to be taking any shortcuts or anything.

good idea right there rdank. That'll teach em
Mindwarper 09-03-08, 12:51 PM I can't wait !!!!
maximuslcd 09-03-08, 01:13 PM If indeed there will be an online demo I'll ck it out, I love the ATV games from the ps2 era...I'm holding out for Motorstorm 2 pacific rift right now but this is sounding good....and I just left gamestop buying a new psp game...argh
Time will tell but I'm more excited for Baja from the devs that used to be at Rainbow Studios. They made the Motocross Madness, MX vs ATV series.
Pure is from Climax who made Moto GP.
One thing for sure is that between these games and Motorstorm 2 its a great time to be an off-road racing fan!!

antwon412 09-03-08, 01:48 PM i _think_ the same team that did the ps2 atv offroad games are doing pure. someone will know for sure. atv offroad was imho one of the best atv.offroad games i have ever played. everything just felt right

Trust me. They're not going to have 35 different environments. I think I actually read 7 so 5 tracks each.
whiskey > work 09-04-08, 03:23 PM cool demo, well made game. Keeps you going with fast restarts. Trick system is cool how you have to progress to unlock B and Y move sets. Looks like a winner!
motoman 09-04-08, 05:45 PM It's up on live now. I'm downloading to try out later.

DaGamePimp 09-04-08, 07:15 PM Fun demo , will be picking this one up .

AHDTVDiet 09-05-08, 04:26 AM Im afraid to try the demo... I hear its really good but it wasnt on my original buy game list. Now I would have ANOTHER game to buy...this is going to get expensive.
Cygnus311 09-05-08, 08:38 AM It's as good as it looked like it would be when it was first revealed. I've been looking forward to this game for a long time.
mboojigga 09-05-08, 03:53 PM im afraid to try the demo... I hear its really good but it wasnt on my original buy game list. Now i would have another game to buy...this is going to get expensive.
you can do it
Yeah, just tried it.... I love racing like this -- from Disney of all places!
Motorstorm (PS3) + SSX = very cool
whiskey > work 09-06-08, 12:02 AM played it some more. I'll tell ya, that demo music is some of the worst I've heard. Not that it's a big deal or anything, but wow. Great racing though I enjoy this demo
Not a fan of the trick based boost... looks pretty nice though...

Have you played the NHL 09 demo? It's even worse.
whiskey > work 09-06-08, 12:31 PM Have you played the NHL 09 demo? It's even worse.
yeah, that's pretty bad too. The worst music in a game is Burnout 3 with Stryker the DJ. Full of Blink 182 clones and cheese hip hop
RobertR1 09-06-08, 01:26 PM The demo was fun. Very nice to look at but I can't see the game worth $60 to me. Too much other stuff coming out.
257Tony 09-06-08, 10:03 PM Thanks for the heads up on the Demo, this game for some reason had slipped under my radar. The kids and I had a blast with it today, will most likely pick it up after the price drop, or a good used deal comes along.
munkyxtc 09-08-08, 08:19 AM I picked up the demo to check it out. It was a nice break from the FPS games which tend to dominate the 360. I'm not sure if I would plunk down $60 on this title but will definitely pick it up when it drops in price a bit.
elezzar 09-08-08, 09:01 AM This game was really fun and the graphics are superb. I'm looking forward to buying this game. Playing online should be a blast !!
Sweet demo. I enjoyed the ATV Offroad Fury games on the PS2 and this looks like a winner. Haven't bought a racing game in a while either...
MarkcusD 09-08-08, 06:27 PM I love the demo! I rent most games, but I'm buying this one.
8.6 from IGN: http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/910/910309p2.html. Too many games, too little time :(
Closing Comments
Pure delivers an outrageous, arcadey off-road racing experience with style and slickness. The controls are intuitive, the tracks are pure eye candy and the tricks are so crazy and over-the-top that you’ll find yourself gasping with glee when you land your first Lazy Girl. Although it’s a blast to play, it’s not the deepest game out there, and we found ourselves wishing for just a few more modes, tracks and options to round out the experience. But overall, Pure is just pure fun, and that’s what it’s all about.
Cygnus311 09-16-08, 10:27 AM I played the MS2 demo and Pure demo again, and based on that, I still think Pure is the better game. Something about MS2 just feels wrong. Like it's too floaty or something. They feel more like hovercrafts than trucks.
FIVE ONE SIX 09-16-08, 10:54 AM if i remember correctly, i think that it was been posted here that the release date for Pure is the 23rd, but i saw that the BB add from Sunday showed that it's arriving this Wednesday. has anyone seen or heard of it actually being released this week? i know those adds are printed months in advance, and release dates change all of the time, and i was just wondering if anyone has heard anything of a release date other than the 23rd?
motoman 09-17-08, 11:13 AM ^^^ The release date was moved up a week. Mine shows it is shipping today from Amazon.

mboojigga 09-17-08, 11:44 AM It is out now I just picked my copy up.
antwon412 09-17-08, 12:01 PM hmmm...i prepaid for my copy yesterday, perhaps it came in today. if so....SWEET!
mboojigga 09-17-08, 12:44 PM hmmm...i prepaid for my copy yesterday, perhaps it came in today. if so....SWEET!
Gamestop by the base had told me yesterday they would be in this morning. I had mine pre-paid. Oh damn I was supposed to get some hat with this :D
Not that I would wear but I want my sh*t
antwon412 09-17-08, 01:44 PM oooh a hat snazzy my pure hat should help me with the ladies
i want one!
mboojigga 09-17-08, 02:13 PM oooh a hat snazzy my pure hat should help me with the ladies
i want one!
Every little bit helps. But with a hat that saids PURE on it will make you out to be a 40 yr old virgin :D
FIVE ONE SIX 09-19-08, 11:46 PM for anyone that hasn't picked up PURE yet, and has a Costco membership, they're selling it for $51.99. the one by me had at least a dozen boxes out on the rack...
DaGamePimp 09-20-08, 12:00 AM Ooops , I forgot about this thread so I made an Official thread for the final game http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=1068232 but since this thread already has so many comments I'll move my post here ;) .
I can't believe nobody is playing this yet (commenting on it) .
... about to fire it up and see if it delivers .
Impressions ? (mine are sure to follow soon)
* So far pretty fun , just unlocked stage 2 . Going to play a bit offline before trying out the 16 player online races .
As you play you unlock new parts for your ATV (you can build multiple ATV's and they are totally customizable) if you place first in the events (race/sprint/freestyle) .
More later , back to the game ( hope I am not the only one out there playing this ) .
* Both times that I have tried to go to the Overall Leaderboards it has locked up my 360 .
*** And now upon loading the game back up my save is gone with my first place finishes and my custom ATV ... MAJOR BUG !!! - - - - AVOID THIS GAME UNTIL THIS IS FIXED !!! - - - -

elezzar 09-20-08, 12:00 AM I must get this game. Playing it online with everyone doing crazy stunts should be cool.
keltontrey 09-20-08, 12:31 AM Does anyone know if you can system-link this game? I know it has online multiplayer.

I have been playing this game non stop since release with online and off and custom ATV's. I haven't ran into any bug whatsoever. I am on stage 7 now.
FIVE ONE SIX 09-20-08, 12:36 AM 2 quick questions about on-line play...
can you use a custom ATV on XBL?
can someone sign on and play on XBL as a guest?
mboojigga 09-20-08, 12:38 AM 2 quick questions about on-line play...

YES
can someone sign on and play on XBL as a guest?
Just like every other multiplayer game yes.
FIVE ONE SIX 09-20-08, 12:41 AM Just like every other multiplayer game yes.
you can't do it on every other multiplayer game, that's why i asked. i played COD4 for 8 months, and you can't sign on as a guest on that game, but thanks for the info...

Well good to hear that it's not everyone but I still hope they fix it because I would hate to be where you are at (stage 7) and lose everything :( .
