Funny this came up...

When I was donw in the Bahamas last week, every time someone would mention an island, I would remember it from my old Pirates! map on the C-64.

I D/Led an emulator and played it on the PC a while back. Still great fun!

I never heard of that game, but anything having to do with pirates can't be all bad.

Yeah, ive been waiting that one for ten years! Its just unbelivable, that it took so long. Shooting 40 black bowder cannons to another wooden ship, now thats a BATTLE!:o

I hope they enable three things:

1. Multi-Player capability (mixed in with some easy AI merchants etc)

2. Multi-ship battles

3. A cool dueling engine with real sword fighting tactics being employed. The old game basically was a fast button pushing exercise.

The old method of sword fighting was pretty weak. Once you had it mastered, it was hard to lose.

God I have the urge to play this game now!
