A game called “Pure” has come out today. It’s very good, and we’re not just saying that because Disney Interactive is one of only two companies in the entire world that bothers sending us review copies of its games. We wouldn’t let a guaranteed £30 off eBay in time for next weekend’s recreational pharmaceutical shopping cloud our judgement or impartiality in any way.

We’re saying that because Pure’s an extremely decent update of the SSX Tricky style of trick-to-boost racer, and SSX Tricky is one of the top five best games of all time even though you had to own one of SATAN’S EVIL LIE MACHINES in order to play it.

That’s a remarkably relaxed face for a man who’s upside down near one of the most dangerous inventions known to man.


“HAVE YOU GOT ANYTHING THAT’S ABOUT SEGA TO KEEP ME GOING OVER THE WEEKEND?”
There’s this rather nice interview with the bloke that played SEGA Saturn Man in the Japanese TV adverts. It’s copied out of “GamesTM” which saves you having to buy “GamesTM” or suffering the shame of being seen reading it in a shop for free.
