This looks really good definitely going to own it. It says it even comes with a copy of the original game. I hope it supports some online multiplayer action.

    Freaking awesome! It came out on the C64 too, which is what I played it on. Man, when I first got that game, I stayed up for 36 hours straight playing it. I finally quit playing and got some sleep after my dad came into my room and started bitchin' about how long I had been playing. ::::29::

    Well, gotta go to work early tomorrow. Good night all!

    Blasphemy.......

    Sid Meiers Pirates is the greatest swashbuckling game ever. I remember sacking towns all along the spanish main. It was not some cheesy easy game either. You had to have your sh*& wired tight if you wanted to keep a crew from mutiny especially if you were running an armada. I played one character for several months and when the game forced him into retirement because of his wounds over the years (yes it really does that) I ended up being a bartender LOL.

    Greatest game ever.

    The boy ain't liein'. It's definitely the greatest pirate game. Only thing that could come close is Pirates of the Burning Sea, if it doesn't turn vaporware.
