I recently stumbled across a nautical video game on the bargain shelf at Target. It's called (as you could probably guess from the topic title) Age of Sail II: Privateer's Bounty. It is supposed to be a ship to ship combat game. And while it is set after the GAoP, it still looks petty nifty. The only problem with it is that I can't get it to work! Every time that I try to play, it goes through the whole intro, lets me pick which battle I want to play, and then lets me go through setting up the options. However, as soon as I click the button to start the battle, it switches to a screen that says "loading" and never does anything again. No matter how long I wait,…

Just a warning to everyone out there. I was looking at picking up a copy of the new "Age of Pirates" from Akella/Playlogice today, but before I did, I did some research. Apparently, Age of Pirates uses the Starforce copy protection software which has known issues causing loss of drive capabilities, hard drive crashes, blue screens and more. STAY AWAY FROM THIS GAME, unless you have a junk computer you don't mind screwing up for just this game. Apparently, Playlogic is also stonewalling the customer's comments on their forums about it. Eventually, there might be a Starforce-less edition (I hope) but until then, just because it's a game about pirates, you don't have to…

Heads up, Shipmates..... I just submitted the third and last part of my three part article on how to work with flintlocks to No Quarter Given. Very in-depth and useful info for taking the mystery out of getting reliable performance out of flintlocks. With this info, you will never again think of flintlocks as un-reliable. The first two parts have already been published, and I suspect that the last part will be in the next issue. >>>>> Cascabel

I'm hoping the success of PotC123 will inspire more pirate movies in the near future. If you were making your own pirate movie, who would you cast as your Pirate Captain? My first pick would be a young Kris Kristofferson: Then again, even at 70, he's looking pretty good. If Keith Richards can play Jack Sparrow's dad in PotC3, then why not have Kris as Jack's American uncle in PotC4: Anyhow ... looking forward to seeing other's dream choices for casting a pirate king (or queen) in a hypothetical movie.

Okay, okay, I admit. This game is silly. I played it once a few times and kept getting beat. Now that I have the game mastered, I have become addicted to this silly game. So, I now have decided to share it with my brothers and sisters who resort to this type of thing when bordom starts to set in. Have fun. http://www.addictinggames.com/pirates.html

This is slightly off-topic, but since the Pirates ride is at Disneyland it could also be considered on topic. I've heard rumours that Disney might want to do away with Fast Pass for the rides. I personally think that has to be untrue. Fast Pass has been the greatest idea in a long time, especially since the crowds have trippled in just the past 5 years. I figured if anyone would know about this it'd be you. I'm hoping these rumours are false. Fast Pass was a great idea and helps crowd control a little bit.

Okay, I saw POTC 2 and had good time but there was A LOT OF STUFF GOING ON IN THAT MOVIE. I fear I've missed a few things. If you have ideas or answers on these topics let me hear you. And if you worked on the movie I'd love to hear your insights. First, what/ was that creepy place from which Jack escaped via the coffin? Oddly, why are they throwing coffins in the ocean instead of just wrapping the dead in a section of bed linen with a big rock to sink them? I assmused that Jack was moving toward the goal of deadmans chest before he was visited by Bootstrap. What do you think? Monkey steals coin at the end of POTC and monkey is now undead. Where is the coin? We…
