About this product

Product Information

Led by renowned developer Sid Meier, Firaxis reprises one of the most universally acclaimed titles of the early days of computer gaming. This 2005 Xbox version of Sid Meier's Pirates! follows the multi-genre design of the 1987 C64 original, while updating both presentation and gameplay with contemporarily cutting-edge technologies. Players take the role of an unremarkable ship captain who is destined for greatness. <br><br>As in the original game, players will set their own course toward this destiny, be it through diplomacy, subterfuge, or brute force. Sid Meier's Pirates! lets players explore multiple aspects of a swashbuckler's life in the Caribbean during the Age of Sail, from fast-paced sword fights and naval combat, to ravenous raids of ports and merchants, to political manipulation of colonial powers in the region.<br><br>Therefore, Pirates! players will encounter an unusually wide array of challenges, including arcade-action-style battles, strategic empire-building in the 17th-century Caribbean, and personality-driven role-playing. Each new game develops along its own unique course, according to the decisions made, the victories attained, and defeats suffered.<br><br>Veterans of the 2004 PC remake will notice a few differences in this Xbox port. Sneaking through town is done from a closer, third-person perspective, but the player's pirate can engage town guards in more action-oriented combat. A new ship-boarding mini-game, called "Evening the Odds," relies on button-press mimicking in the style of Shenmue's "Quick Time Events." The Xbox version also features multiplayer ship combat, complete with power-ups, for as many as four players on the same console.<br><br>Overall, Sid Meier's Pirates! is designed to allow players to progress as they choose through a diverse selection of non-linear, individual missions and challenges. The player's choices and actions can have effects on the game world, however, and as they become more powerful and feared, captains will begin to see their influence all across the Caribbean. Each adventure spans the captain's entire lifetime, and the ultimate goal is to eventually retire, at a ripe old age, with as much wealth and status as possible.

  • Pirates and Ninja's hereditary enemies

    I bought this game because of a similar title I bought in the 80's for the Commodore 64/128. In this game as well as the one from the 80's you take the role of a pirate captain with the goals of amassing wealth, prestige, finding lost family members and last but not least tracking down the villain resposible for you and your families woes. This game is quite fun to play but you must act quickly or you will become too old and ill to complete it, as your character ages as the game progresses. This game is very challenging at the rogue captain level as you cannot just beat everyone silly in the sword fights, your opponents actually have some skill at this level. To win your bride to be you must become proficient at hitting the correct buttons in time to the music during the ballroom ...

  • Sid Meier's Pirates! Get the Game!

    This game for the xbox platform is a MUST HAVE for anyone interested in mixing a little board-game strategy into their video gameplay. Not solely a third-person shooter experience, "Sid Meier's Pirates!" lets the gamer build a dynamic career that is directly affected by the choices he/she makes within the game. The controls are easy to master and maneuver, but the difficulty comes with integrating tactics and aforementioned strategy into the swordfights, ship battles and land campaigns that serve as the action portions of the game. Whether you decide to play it straight and amass a fortune as a prosperous merchant, or want to go the mercenary route as a sailor-for-hire employed by the English, Dutch, French or Spanish, or even do the dirty work to maraud, pillage and plunder your way to ...

  • Sid Meier`s-Pirates

    This is a game I liked to play on the computer a long time ago. It is very much like a game for the PC, called HighSeas trader 2000. I used to play it about 15 years ago. I don`t know if Sid Meier`s made that version or not.Pirates is a little repetative in the danceing mode, and the fighting on the ships, sword style battles, are to easy, and are the same graphics over and over. I love the trading options with other ports. Survival is the key idea.It`s sad that you can find the pirates on the top 10 list in about the first 2 hours of the game.I was expecting it to be much better in the area of ,different on ship battles.I only have a choice of 5 ratings,I would only give it an average . I only played it for about 5 hours total and have not played it any more.

  • Eye there mate' this is the ONLY pirate game you need!

    Have you dreamed of being a pirate? Do you wish you wore a patch over one eye and carried a parrot on your shoulder? Do you have nightmares of having your ship sunk in the middle of the Caribbean? Well then this game is for you. It has everything you need to be the pirate you ever wanted PLUS it has the BEST AI engine written by Sid Meier. If you are a fan of his other work (Civilization etc.) then you will love this game too. You get to fight with a sword. Use your fleet of ships to take over the Caribbean and fire your cannons. Choose your side and decide what factions you want to help and which ones you want to plunder. (Yes this game is open ended) Conduct trade to make extra coin. You also get to do battle with some the the greatest pirates of all time. All while you are ...
