If you put a stack of 360 games in the closet and don't look at it for at least 4 months, a copy of Pure/Lego Batman will materialize.

Great video. Getting this and Lego Batman with the 360 Elite is Pure nostalgia

[literalcharlie]

Pure, dirt & fuel. I really miss the names of games back then

[kcadventures]

Man...i was locked in with this game! Especially with my 360 custom sountrack in the bachground....bliss. better times man....better times.

A hidden gem. Split second even moreso, such a shame we didn't get a sequel

[JWUniverse]

I just found out my copy of Pure was Back Compat on my Series X. Hell Yeah I started playing it again I love Xbox! Disney made 2 Great Racing Games during this era Pure and Split Second. BTW I bought every ATV Game on PS2 all the way up till now on Xbox!

No way I've just been playing this! My friends used to talk about how great it was when it came out so it's been on my to-play list for years. Finally got around to playing it last month. Loved it! I'm trying to get all the achievements but I'm not quite there yet.

I loved this game. Played it a lot back in the day. Pure nostalgia watching this video. Got every achievement for it. It was challenging but not impossible. Had a lot of fun.

There was a time when Disney was also into game publishing, before they threw it all away to chase the mobile trend.

What else do you expect from a movie studio with a history of poor treatment of their workers since Walt’s foundation? 🤷‍♂️

Still, I miss this era of Disney Interactive, they wanted to experiment with original releases instead of licensing their characters. And we had a ton of interesting games out of that era: Pure, Split/Second, Spectrobes, and the like.

Picking up a 360 this coming Saturday and this is one of the 33 games included! It looks like a good time
Cheers bud!

[vilewisher]

This game felt more to me like the spiritual successor to the ATV Offroad Fury games than MX vs ATV did tbh. I still love MX vs ATV but Pure was somethin special

[KLEJGaming]

Always been curious about this - gonna have to pick a copy up now! Great video :D

[joshuajefferson]

I still have my physical disc of pure.😂😂😂

[flawlessfatality]

I remember when this game came out. I couldn't believe how good the graphics were

[Sashko_Dee]

Pure felt like a continuation of all the previous eras extreme sports games. Nowadays the only people making extreme sports games are tiny indie studios.

I still remember I have this for PS3 and the first time buying a flat screen HD TV, I hooked it up to the PS3 with HDMI and the visuals was just stunning. My first time seeing HDMI and 720p on a flat screen LCD, my mind was blown. Looks like shit now, but back then we have different standards.

[KitDoctor]

Good review. I really need to pick this one up now

[dmarth]

Did I hear Waterworld for the SNES in the background? That's an obscure one, but a great choice!

[ssgoku]

This was the last 360 game i got before it got the red ring my dad and I always played offroad vehicle games together and this was like the only ATV game they dropped on 360 at the time and we loved it. This game has crazy jumps!

[RusticRonnie]

I feel like my memories of all these old games just have the bloom removed …. Like I am always surprised to see how much bloom there is in all these 360 games
