<img src="http://www.piratesahoy.net/images/stories/east-india.gif" border="0" class="linked-image" />Our old mates over at the <a href="http://www.hookedgamers.com" target="_blank">Hooked Gamer</a>s website have put up a hands on preview of EIC.  Keep in mind this is actually hands on and not a rehash of released information so if your serious about EIC then this is a must read.  Most of the preview is based around the sea battles which Wolf come across as being content with, however he does take a shot at some of the lack of variation from sounds and backgrounds.Â
