Sid Meier's Pirates!, the long awaited sequel to (or remake of) the classic Pirates! and Pirates! Gold has hit the stores this week. Has anyone here already played it? I am considering getting it and I' d like a few opinions. Although the graphics are stunning, the game seems to have remained much the same as last time around.

I'm not really sure what "Pirates of the burning sea" is, it seems to be a game that you play online, but more importantly, it has some pretty computer generated images of ships. maybe it's something you could all get into (or maybe you're already into it) either way, have a look at it.

Well I was raiding the aisle of the local Toys Arrrr Us plundering Star Wars figures when I happened to wander over to the Lego section. Seems that Mega Bloks, the company that puts out Dragons, is now releasing a set called Pyrates! They have 3 different crews: The Privateers, the Mauraders, and the Skeleton Crew. Yes, the Skeleton Crew are... well, skeletons. They're coming out with 3 skulls that open up to become islands, each has 3 figures. Pouches with 2 figures and treasure inside. The Maurader ship and the Skeleton ship. A pyrate isle playset. The figures are very detailed, much more so than old school lego figs. Find them today, or explore: Pyrates home…

I was just looking up something on Wikipedia (Fabulous creation that, probably the best thing to come out of the internet) and I followed some links and eventually ended up at Guybrush Threepwood, where it mentions a similarity between Guybrush and Will Turner from POTC, what an absolutely fascinating thought! Don't everybody say "Well I already thought of THAT!" I have not played Monkey Island since it came out in the early 90s and I was a wee teen. though the website writes "somewhat unlikely due to possible copyright infringement lawsuits", you never can tell what might of inspired the creation of a character. and as my old drama teacher used to say,(hey, I'm alread…

I was flipping through the channels when I saw Captain Jack in a Terri Clark video on CMT. Very curious. Turns out it's not Depp, but it's a pretty good likeness. For those of you who despise country, you will be challenged, but for the more open-minded, you can check it out on line... Girls Lie Too Link (This is on Yahoo!. You will have to sign into a Yahoo! account to see the video.)

I have good news for Captain Hook fans. There is another prequel to Peter Pan coming out, and it has nothing to do with Peter and the Starcatchers. This one is simply called Capt. Hook, so I'm sure everyone can figure out who the (anti)hero of the story is. It was written by J. V. Hart and illustrated by Brett Helquist. I just finished an advance reader's edition of the book (it goes on sale in August) and I have to say that I liked it better than Harry Potter. It starts with a fifteen-year-old James entering Eton and then shows everything that leads him to becoming a pirate. If anyone wants to know more, I will be happy to provide details with as few spoilers as …

I'm not a huge fan of computer games, good thing too as this machine can do little more than run the 'net and a 5 year old version of 'word'. However - I was tootling about the ol' shopping mall a few days back and saw an interesting little game for just $7. It goes by the title Sea Dogs and it's made by, according to the box in front of me, a company called "Bethesda Softworks" you are the infamous Captain Nick and you sail the archipelago looting(and working for) the French, Spanish, English and (of course) the Brotherhood of pirates! you can sail anything from a cannonless trading canoe to a 68 gun Man of War. I'll leave any more details for you to discover yours…

Pirates of the Caribbean: The Legend of Jack Sparrow E3 2005 Impressions We had a chance to take an up-close look at Pirates of the Caribbean: The Legend of Jack Sparrow, the upcoming pirate-themed action game from publisher Bethesda Softworks and developer 7 Studios (the latter is currently working on the Fantastic Four game for Activision). Unlike the previous pirate-themed game released by Bethesda (which was a strategy game similar to Sid Meier's Pirates!), The Legend of Jack Sparrow will be a full-on third-person brawling game in which you'll play as the titular pirate Jack Sparrow (played by Johnny Depp in the motion picture) or as Will Turner (played by Orlando Bl…
