PURE demo up on Xbox Live now: Crash something before you go to work photo

Major Frigging Nelson has just announced that Disney Interactive's off-road racing game PURE has arrived on Xbox Live in demo form. If you actually have a job, you might be interested in quickly downloading the bugger before you have to go to work.

I've been on the lookout for a decent racing game, so I've got my 360 churning away in the background as I type. Nick Chester talks about this one a lot, so I'm assuming it's good. Mind you, he also talks about luring children back to his apartment and forcing them to perform Bertolt Brecht plays for his own sick amusement while he eats peanuts. You can never tell when Chester's ideas of entertainment are good ones.

I'm stuck at work not playing this, I wish there was a way for me to set it going from here, then it would be finer than a hot meal waiting on the table at 5pm. Yum.

Just downloaded the demo and I was REALLY impressed by it. The graphics are pretty nice to look at, the controls are good and the quads handle well and stunts are pretty intuitive to pull off.

I also thought that the music included with the demo was a pretty solid selection apart from that fucking Wolfmother track that every bastarding sports game seems to use.

Reminds me a little of playing Sled Storm on the Playstation. Damn I loved that game.

Holy shit...I downloaded this having very low expectations, and it turns out it's as much fun as SSX used to be. I'm gonna buy it for sure.

I'll be playing this by the weekend. Haven't tried a game like this in a while.
