    Arrrrr. 0

    The game graphics may not be dazzling and the sound can come and go, but I focus on the game play and I listen to podcasts (Giantbomb) instead of getting annoyed of over the music.I have a grate time ruining the French's ships and plundering the Spanish towns. The game seems more for nine year olds, but the simple game play will still keep you wanting to get the English enraged over the sinking of their new governors ship. I thought 2k would at lest try to get the game into store. I thought the ...

    I love Pirates... but not that much. 0

    I picked up Sid Meiers' Pirates! for the Wii because I had filled my computer with too much illegal music to be able to play the computer versio anymore. Am I joking about illegal music? Most difinitely, but I have enough to be able to go three weeks without hearing the same song. As for the game, Pirates! for the Wii. I wish I could go a little bit more.   If you have never played Pirates! and you own a Wii, then this is one game you should own. For those who love the 2004 version, I would sugg...
