A Beginner's guide to DOSBox should get you started.

This game disappointed me. I wanted to like it since Pirates is one of my favorite games, but the sword fighting seemed to be a bit off and I didn't like the new interface for showing casualties. And I remember sailing being completely silent with no wind or wave sounds or anything and I couldn't tell if it was my computer or the game.

I just have the Mac version on CD and I'm not sure why it's even on one since it's still not that big of a game on the CD, unless it has slightly better music and audio. It's only about 20 MB installed I think, if even that.

I like the original Pirates better than Pirates Gold.

Great title, but I don't have any reason to play this one since the remake was launched.

Man, I really wanted to ask you one time. Are your posts really necessary? I mean, how many one-line posts are you gonna do per day? If it's a great title, then say what's so great about it, if it sucks then specify why exactly. Even when you praise the game, I don't feel any love in your words, and when you criticize them, I don't hear the reasons. Both great games and bad games deserve more than one line in a fair appreciation.

About the "length of posts", I don't believe that going into much detail is needed unless someone asks you for it. About "love", well, I certainly don't love or hate every game that have my post in its thread, I have the power of liking and disliking. I don't know what more info would you like from me about this title, Sid Meier's Pirates! > Pirates Gold is the case because everything that is good in Gold(graphics, sound, gameplay) is even better in later title, except for atmosphere which is on the same level in both. |
