Review: Pure (Xbox 360)

ATV racing games took a prominent spot in many people’s gaming libraries around the the PS2 days with ATV Offroad Fury. Motorstorm took everything to the next level this generation on the PS3, and now Disney looks to enter the foray with Pure. With some nice controls, cool graphics, and customization options for your ride, Pure provides a good racing game for your Xbox 360.

The graphics in Pure are pretty darn good. Backgrounds looks terrific and the tracks themselves are nice. Characters are okay and the ATV’s are very detailed. I expected a bit more in terms of mud splatters and such, however the track deformation with tire tracks looks good. I also noticed a big of screen tearing during a few races and in cut-scenes. On the sound front, Pure does a pretty good job with ATV effects and a solid soundtrack that matches the game’s style. Character voice-overs are decent, but they get repetitive when you pass people or pull off a good trick.
