Cutthroats

[Artemis Pepper]

Ahoy-

I have heard tale of a great plunder'n game called CutThroats...I downloaded the demo, played it, loved it, want more of it....only problem is nobody sells it around here. Asked the localgamestores and the like,they sed they never heard of it and can't get it. I checked amazon.com, and yes, I can get it there for $40, but the game came out in 2000, and it's the same price as it was then...

Anyone know where I might find a cheaper copy? I'd be much obliged!

Try www.gogamer.com ---> 14.90!

They sell games on the cheap. CT is a terrific game, I've probably played it more than any other over the years. It is buggy though, so once you get it, make sure you get the patch (version 7) which fixes most problems.

Well, as a pyrate game fanatic, and one who has tried to play cutthroats on several occasions, I would respectfully suggest that you pass on this game and opt for Port Royale instead. Eidos Games put out 7 (yes, seven) patches for this game and there are still problems with the software locking up your computer and making it "go boom". In the world of computer games, 7 patches tells you that the game was unstable and the problem was not getting fixed. Port Royale, put out by Ascaron, will cost you around $30, and is readily available. However, if you are a glutton for torture, and really want Cutthroats, I'll consider selling you my copy, but don't run me through once you play it, or should I say attempt to play it!!!
