While looking into converting the recent example that I posted for Cerberus-X and BlitzMax into Purebasic. I came across this (http://drac.site.chez-alice.fr/Tutorials%20Programming%20PureBasic/indexTutorials_en.htm#POO) article.
You can find it on git hub as well. (https://github.com/tajmone/purebasic-archives/blob/master/tutorials/oop/drac/en/OOP-Demystified.asciidoc)
It does sound like it's a lot of work to implement a type of OOP though.
..PureBasic, stands out a little bit from typical 'Basic' type of language, but as everything else, once you grasp concepts, its really not issue at all..and its really really fast..
I think modules and structures are enough to have some kind of oop approach in PureBasic. Pete explains it very well. In the last weeks he has been publishing video after video.

Yes I agree Mike, even John Carmack uses the very minimum OOP and codes in a C style with a few C++ OOP features.
