TD's bigass review

XSA - Impure

Stunters:
corevil
Corey
DeathCobra
J-Fox
kr3mlin
NuclearDeath
Omni
Ostis
RAD
Sweet

Intro:
Well the vid certainly started with some weirdass music. Which seems to be corevil's kinda thing. Seriously stop doing that dood.
The first part scripting was enjoyable. A nice idea well executed. Now the second part I really enjoyed. They way every stunter got presented was original and looked good. Very nice intro, it was worth the wait.

Stunts:
RAD - I remember you sending that one to AOA. Great p2b dood. That was about the last remaining p2b in that spot.
corevil - Not bad, but not that impressive tbh.
J-Fox - It's been krailed, and now it's 540Â°'ed. Looked real stylish.
Omni - Now that's an impressive p2b2bb. Good job doing it with a slower bike too. It would've looked really awesome if you flew through the hole.
Sweet - That roof seems to be popular lately. Looks like you needed quite some vertical height.
Corey - Nice BSM to BB although I've almost seen too much of them.
Ostis - A Gotups pb landed to a higher part. Good stunt.
corevil - Using the SF hills for that stunt is a great idea. Next time try to add a krail or 360 to the grab.
DeathCobra - That might be the only way to get up that roof. Looks like it's hard to land on too. Good comeback stunt man.
NuclearDeath - A palm landing! Good one nunuc.
RAD - That one looked great. I really like the airtime you got of this double packer p2b.
corevil - Was that the trigger method? Anyways good landing spot.
J-Fox - One of the highlights of this vid imo. Really impressive gap. it just looks so damn awesome.
kr3mlin - I haven't seen such a smooth packerwallride2grind since SA, My Way. Really your style man. What's up with the weird skin?
Sweet - Finally you got to use this. I think you landed this when Illusions came out, before your pc crashed so you had to redo it?
NuclearDeath - Not bad. I see you're really liking those double packer pb's eh?
RAD - Well the idea was nice, but I know it's landable with a normal p2b. This kinda looks like an "I gotta land this thing before anyone else does so I'll just pb a plane" stunt.
Sweet - The way you bonked made me thing you were gonna land the small thing.
Corey - Best of it's kind imo. Nice spin too.
corevil - Not bad.
Omni - Done by KaynT in Re-Align. It's still a great stunt though.
NuclearDeath - Good MD to start of the second part of the vid.
corevil - So close to landing the top. Good long distance double packer pb.
Sweet - Great mtbike combo!
RAD - Buzzsaw should be proud of you RAD. Many tried and many failed, untill you came along.
Corey - Another nice mtbike combo.
DeathCobra - Another favorite of mine. I tried this a while ago. Awesome bump to wallride thingy!
Ostis - Stylish stunt man. Good job.
corevil - Good use of the tank there. And you got a nice spin.
Omni - You sure seem to like distance stunts now eh. Really good stunt here.
RAD - I almost didn't notice the second packer at first. I like how you landed on the border of the top part.
NuclearDeath - This one really impressed me. It has to be one of your best looking stunts nunuc. Good job!
Sweet - I got close on SAMP a few days ago. Good natural way onto that thing.
Ostis - This is by far the best p2b in the whole vid (and there are alot of them!). The spot is so obvious yet nobody thought of trying it. One of my favorites.
J-Fox - Maybe you are the first one to completing the grind but the spot is old and looks quite boring now.
NuclearDeath - Another nice double packer pb.
DeathCobra - You finally landed it after all those months. Then the SASL started and you quickly did it again. Goooood stunt dood.
corevil - Kert and I tried to land on the BB about a year ago. I actually crashed onto the BB. The roof crossed my mind but I never really tried it. Good job core.
RAD - A big double packer p2b to a small landing. Good finisher, as always.

Music:
The Papa Roach song is really awesome. Such a typical stuntvid song and it worked well. It has alot of energy.
The second song is something different. I wouldn't call this a normal stuntvid song but I liked it and you made it work with the editing.

Editing:
The editing improved alot since your first beta core. You had good synching and the effects weren't annoying at all. I have to say this is your best edited vid so far. Good job man. Really good quality too.

Credits:
Haha an unexpected funny song. It's always good to see some stunts/clips in the credits rather than just plain text. I like the thing you did with the sky and clouds appearing.
Does the song have a special meaning btw? I mean they sing about a 'sad game'?

Overall:
Another great vid to add to the XSA list. I think this vid made up to the "X is too short"-comments. Impure is huge!
IMO there was a bit of an overuse of packers in the vid (some stunts even used 2! ), but that's just me. Though the vid missed something. I know what. Liviu! Get yer arse back into SA dood! I hope the next vid will be atleast as good as this one. But that shouldn't be a problem seeing as how DeathCobra is back.
Congrats XSA on another impressive crewvid!

W000t downloading... Not too fast though.

Edit:

Very very very nice!! I think is the beginning of using double packer to bump higher objects..Anyways nice editing Core! The whole thing felt nice, and the stunting was nothing less then expected.
