In what looks to be an update to a classic and then some - Sid Meier’s Pirates! is shaping up! I remember playing the original on my C64 in High School and thinking…gaming doesn’t get better than this…well maybe now it does.

“In Pirates! you take the leading role of a Pirate Captain in the 17th century Caribbean amassing fortune and fame in an attempt to seize your rightful place as one of the most revered (and feared!) pirates in history. Test your skills as a sea captain exploring the high seas and exotic ports in a richly detailed 3D world. Overtake the enemy and seize valuable booty. Exchange plank-shattering broadsides in fierce naval battles, and engage in duels with worthy opposing captains.”
