    Agh the WAITING!!!

    I preorder often and the game ships to you the same day it ships to the stores. So if you ordered overnight, you will get it at the same time the stores do. You can probably get it faster since you have to wait for the stores to stock it. I can recall several games being out a few days before...

    Cool! I have a four day weekend next week too. Just have to figure out what to do with all the relatives. "No, sorry Thanksgiving is canceled this year. How about you all go to Perkins. Something has come up and I can't make it.!" <img...

    No `T-shirt` or map for the Americans??

    I though the US LE box was a treasure chest style box. Did this change?

    Can it top POTC?

    Have you ever played the original Pirates? If you are a fan of the original then you wouldn't be worried. This game is not trying to be like Sea Dogs or POTC. This one is basically a remake of the original with some updates.

    Pirates Gold will be included in the LE!

    This is what ebgames states is in the limited edition. How accurate they are I don't know. This Limited Edition `DVD-ROM` game includes: "Set Sail with Sid" - `Behind-the`-scenes interviews with the Pirates! development team The original Pirates! game - Experience the hit game of 1987...

    Question about Limited Edition `DVD-Rom`

    You can buy a `cd-rw`/`dvd-rom` combo for $30 now days. Check out newegg or your local store. If you want a `dvd-rw` it will cost more though.

    Pirate Preview

    I just received my November copy of Computer Games and it has a nice preview of Pirates! It has some nice info, I suggest you all check it out. I'll try to post an interesting line or two later.

    Beta / Avast

    I wasn't selected. Oh well. It's probably because my profession is programmer. They want `non-programmers` to test it so they can get the `non-programmer` point of view. Congrats to everyone that got into beta! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/onya.gif"...

    Will ther be room fer a female lead as an alternate cap'n?

    I think it would be cool if there was a female avatar but there would be at least one potential problem. What to do about the governor's daughters? Three options : 1) They would have to switch them up with sons. This involves a little more art, sound, and dialogue production. 2) You could...

    Beta / Avast

    Yes, everyone that signs up gets a beta site login. If you read the site faq it says that you will only be informed if you are chosen. They will not inform you if you are not selceted as they do not have time. If you are selected you will receive an email and your status on the site wil...

    Beta / Avast

    I received the email and signed up as well. I then received a confirmation email which included a link and account info for the Atari beta tester site. All we can do know is wait and see if a few of us get selected. Of course with the NDA the lucky few will not be able to say much.

    No Gore!? Why not the favored "Minor Menu"?

    I also didn't mean to start a debate. It's just a subject I am passionate about. I'm very interested in the gaming industry and have read many studies over the years. If you are interested Cap'n Toast, here is a link that I could find quickly. <a...

    No Gore!? Why not the favored "Minor Menu"?

    It should be noted that now days the majority of gamers are over twenty years old. So most games should be made with them in mind. If parents don't like the content of a game, they can simply not let their children play it. If their kids don't listen and play anyway, it's not my fault they...

    Game Speed

    I think the time limit and aging are important cool new factors, but I feel like 8 hours is a little short. At least give me `16-20` hours as the same character. Reply value is good, but why replay if you couldn't immerse yourself in the gameplay the first time. I fear it will feel more like...
