So, has anyone tried it? What do you think? Is it a rental or a
purchase or a pass?

Thanks,

Vin

I played it on the PC and found it vastly overrated. It is nothing but the
same mini-games over and over again. These are the cleanest living pirates
you'll ever see.

Ok, I picked it up for the Xbox and my first 20 minutes or so I was like:
"Ok, so what is the big deal". Now that I am several hours into it, it is
very good. It is basically the same repetative game play layers but for
some reason you can't stop playing. You want to play till you do just one
more thing...and then another thing

I recommend it as it is fun.

Yeah. What kind of so-called pirates neither rape nor pillage? Pansies.

I know it'll label me a heretic for bashing a Gaming God, but I have only
enjoyed one Sid Meier game in my life.

I hope it's Civ II. I lost many, many nights to that game.

SIMGolf actually. I hate turn-based strategy games.

Ignore him, he's just trying to entertain himself by trolling.

Well, Jesus hates you, so I guess it evens out.

I figured that out years ago when he made me a fat, bald, stupid, ugly
skank.

Better than being a fat, bald, stupid, ugly virgin I suppose. At least
you're getting some.

Just to clarify, that was a huge lie.

Whacking off to Galka in FFXI doesn't count.
