Gentleman of Fortune Posted August 30, 2005 Posted August 30, 2005 I am trying to get a hold of the Sid Meir's Pirates Live the Life game. If you have already played the thing to death and want to move it on to another loving home.... send me a PM. I have some pirate trade wampum or a fair price can be paid. Thanks GoF Come aboard my pirate re-enacting site http://www.gentlemenoffortune.com/ Where you will find lots of information on building your authentic Pirate Impression!
Killian Posted August 30, 2005 Posted August 30, 2005 I saw it in Target for a good price. I used to have the orginal game back in the Comodore 64 days, and have actually thought about picking up the game me self.
Pirate Petee Posted August 30, 2005 Posted August 30, 2005 I don't see how that game can get old, damn thing is like crack.
Killian Posted August 30, 2005 Posted August 30, 2005 Damn I think I will buy it today on my way home from work. I used to play the original for hours on end.
Pirate Petee Posted August 30, 2005 Posted August 30, 2005 Consider yourself warned mate, youll be spendin plenty o hours on it. Youll sure ta be gettin your doubloons worth.
tishsparrow Posted August 31, 2005 Posted August 31, 2005 i just got mine at circut city, almost got the guidebook too, but the cash register wouldnt work. is it even possible to dance well on that game? i have tried it multiple times, and can only impress the plain girls. course, this isnt a major concern of mine, i spend more time looking at my little pirate dude (thats his name, original isnt it?). cute little bugger...
Pirate Petee Posted August 31, 2005 Posted August 31, 2005 On a Pc it takes awhile to get the hang of it. I havn't tried it on x-box yet. Going to get a copy of that just for the multiplayer ship battles.
Gentleman of Fortune Posted September 1, 2005 Author Posted September 1, 2005 Hey! You guys are "pirating" my thread... I am trying to GET the game, I already KNOW how addictive it is!

MadMike Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 Bah! Try "Pirates of the Caribbean" and download the Build 12 mod from piratesahoy.net. Significantly improves gameplay a hundredfold and the mod team is working on adding additional islands, ships, and realism options. Yours, &c. Mike Try these for starters- "A General History of the Pyrates" edited by Manuel Schonhorn, "Captured by Pirates" by John Richard Stephens, and "The Buccaneers of America" by Alexander Exquemelin.
Capt. Morgan Posted September 2, 2005 Posted September 2, 2005 Woo hoo! Just finished my first round of Pirates! . . . gonna try on a higher difficulty... watch out, Spanish! Petee, the multiplayer ship battles aren't all that great... just like the in-game ship battles, only with a live person at the helm of the enemy vessel... dancing is MUCH easier on XBox, though... Touche' Ship's Marksman & Crab Fiend Pyrates of the Coast "All the skill in the world goes out the window if an angel pisses in the flintlock of your musket." "Florida points like a guiding thumb, To the southern isles of rumba and rum, To the mystery cities and haunted seas, Of the Spanish Main and the Caribbees..."
tishsparrow Posted September 3, 2005 Posted September 3, 2005 IT IS??? dang! should have gotten it for xbox then... cant dance any better on that game then in real life, and i dance like a dizzy person with a ferret in their pocket...
Capt. Lazarus Gage Posted September 5, 2005 Posted September 5, 2005 Aye, I believe i'm on my 10th run in Pirates! and I finally found me a Ship of the Line, from the Dutch no less.
Captain_MacNamara Posted September 5, 2005 Posted September 5, 2005 No place around here will carry it. Captain of the Iron Lotus It is the angle that holds the rope, not the size of the hole.
Capt. Lazarus Gage Posted September 5, 2005 Posted September 5, 2005 Buy it on-line! Best Buy, EB Games....anywhere, it's well worth it!
Killian Posted September 6, 2005 Posted September 6, 2005 Got it the other day, played it for 7 straight hours.
Tudor MercWench Smith Posted September 7, 2005 Posted September 7, 2005 wanted; the system good enough to run Pirates . . .
tishsparrow Posted September 7, 2005 Posted September 7, 2005 i just got the guidebook for it, very helpful for all the things i was completely clueless about, except DANCING! why! i cannot dance at ALL! oh, and i got potc for the x-box, but have not played it because my brother got driver 3 and has not yet gotten off the x-box since he came home, at 2;00!!!
blackjohn Posted September 7, 2005 Posted September 7, 2005 wanted; the system good enough to run Pirates . . . Me too. I should've gotten an xbox. My Home on the Web The Pirate Brethren Gallery Dreams are the glue that holds reality together.
Tudor MercWench Smith Posted September 8, 2005 Posted September 8, 2005 wanted; the system good enough to run Pirates . . . Me too. I should've gotten an xbox. I'm thinking it would just be cheaper to do that rather then a new computer . . . I dunno - how much do x-boxes run?
Pirate Petee Posted September 8, 2005 Posted September 8, 2005 Coolest thing about the x-box version is the multiplayer ship battles. You and three of your friends can sit around and sink each other, its a blast.
tishsparrow Posted September 8, 2005 Posted September 8, 2005 the x-box tends to be somewhere around $100. a bit cheaper than a computer...
The Doctor Posted September 8, 2005 Posted September 8, 2005 I'm hanging on for "The Age of Pirates", due out 4Q05. "Pirates" is fun, as is "Pirates of the Caribbean (Build 12)", don't get me wrong. I'm just ready for new seas to terrorize and make my own. Yo ho ho! Or does nobody actually say that?
Capt. Lazarus Gage Posted September 8, 2005 Posted September 8, 2005 What is "Age of Pirates" coming out for?? Computer or console??
The Doctor Posted September 8, 2005 Posted September 8, 2005 Same folks who did "Sea Dogs" and "Pirates of the Caribbean". And I believe it's for PC and console. Have a looksee at Pirates Ahoy! for the most up-to-date info. Yo ho ho! Or does nobody actually say that?
