I don't think a game like Pirates! needs a multiplayer option, nor do I think it would really do that much for gameplay. Some developers are throwing in online multiplayer options now just because it's the thing everyone is doing, but some games aren't really made for it -- and that's the way it should be. Video games will be in trouble (in my opinion, at least) when developers stop thinking about single player action and focus just on multiplayer.

Me thinks it'll be a multiplayer expansion, just like "Play the world" to civ 3.
And then it'll be a famous expeditions expansion just like "Conquests" to civ 3 that includes the multiplayer expansion, just like "Conquests" to civ 3...

jepp, this game is one of the best in 2004... But after a couple of days dancing and looting it gets a little repetetive, but there are so many things you can do... so try and do different things all the time, then u wont notice too much that it is repetitive. I must say that attaking towns from shore is an excellent touch in the game.... It adds a little strategy!!

as far as my slow machine (amd 1,4) has allowed me to enjoy the game,
i'd rate 8.5/10.

and YES, a multiplayer option would be awsome, indeed!! k:

Its a good game, imo - good enough for me to actually get a legit copy of it ... There is, however, one very annoying thing about it and that is that you can't try to attack a coastal city via the sea like you could in the older versions. Instead, you have to land your troops and march into the city <_< ... Seeing that in the previous games, most of my assaults were from the sea, I was extremely disappointed that they had to take that option away...

damn here i was asking for a copy of the original one over in requests and now i come over here and get convinced to buy the new one. as far as repetiveness goes is it about the same as the old one? the old could be called repetive but it was still adicting as hell.

Well it is very repetitive, but its fun nonetheless.

Johnny Depp's character in Pirates of the Caribbean. He looks like an extra in a The Cure video.
