Jason Avent, game director at Black Rock Studio, calls it the Vertigo Rush - Pure's defining moment. You can see it coming - a small raised part of the track hurtling towards you. You boost towards it, speeding even faster, and then, with a down-up flick of the left thumb stick the driver launches into the jump...
You're flying. Almost literally. The hard rock soundtrack dulls, the rumble of the quad bike engine barely audible over the whining wind. Things slow down ever so slightly. You're hundreds of feet in the air. You can see 20 kilometres into the distance (really, Pure has a draw distance of 20 kilometres). You can see mountain ranges, distant structures, air balloons and small ant-like vehicles somewhere on the ground below.
Now all you have to worry about is tearing your eyeballs away from the breathtaking view so you can target a safe landing, somewhere down there. Somewhere miles away.
