Summary: One of the worst.
Review: As an extremely avid gamer, I normally say I have no problem throwing [money] away on a new game, even if it only holds my interest for a few weeks. With Pirates of the Caribbean, I definately did throw away [money] though, and I wish I could get it back.

I bought Pirates of The Caribbean after being addicted to Morrowind, another Bethesda game for months and months, expecting to see the same breathtaking graphics and flexibility of gameplay. While the graphics aren't bad, they are a little less than I expected, with things starting to look the same after you've visited a few islands. Some areas appear to just not be finished, with large green spots, bare of rocks or foliage or anything.

The gameplay is what really upset me. While your first sea battle is a blast, and your first few sword and pistol duels are pretty fun, after having to load an old game a dozen or so times because almost every opponent on the sea can quite easily destroy you, and getting stuck in a storm can easily be an end-game, it gets old.

The story line is so linear, you have none of the flexibility of Morrowind, or other recent RPG's.

The first day was horrible, with poor documentation and a high learning curve.
The second and third day were awesome, exploring the new opportunities of sea battle and new areas of the Caribbean.
The rest of that week, and all of this week, I've been frustrated and disappointed.
Pirates of the Caribbean is now sitting in a box in the hall.

Summary: Be sure your PC has the min specs - this is picky software!
Review: Be careful when buying this product - it states that it runs on many Window's platforms, but actually works on very few. The video and sound card requirements are pretty hefty. I made the mistake of buying this software only to find out I can't run it, and my laptop is less than a year old. Plus, the trouble shooting information is minimal on both the software and the official website. I ended up having to contact technical support. It looks like a great game if you can run it.....

Summary: It's no sid meyers pirates
Review: Beautiful graphics for ship sailing but tedious and not very interesting role-playing. I think the developers made a lot of questionable design decisions and there's not enough movie tie in - that's for sure. If you're waiting for a game that captures the adventure and thrill of being a pirate, Atari has announced the remake of Sid Meyers Pirates. This game is still -to this day even with all the flashy, first person shooters, etc. on the market, one of the greatest games of all time! So if you're selective about your pirate's games wait for sid meyers great pirates to come out, but if you can buy more then one pirate game then I'd say Pirates of the Caribbean is probably worth the money...or wait 6 months and get it on sale.

Summary: Not Sea Dogs 2
Review: Bethesda should be ashamed of themselves; Sea Dogs is one of the best pirate games of all time and Sea Dogs II had potential of being twice as better. Then Disney throws their moneybags that Bethesda to rush the release of Sea Dogs II and change the name to Disney's new movie Pirates of the Caribbean. Therefore we Sea Dogs fans now have Pirates of the Caribbean, which is full of bugs. The graphics are beautiful but it's so buggy that I cannot enjoy the game. I gave it a fair chance I wanted to see it succeed but I got so frustrated with the bugs in Pirates of the Caribbean that I destroyed the CD out of anger. I recommend everyone to not buy this game, instead buy Sea Dogs and send letters to Bethesda to cut your loses with Pirates of the Caribbean and make us a worthy sequel to Sea Dogs.

Summary: Oh My God
Review: Check it out, the "gamer" who swore how great the game is is from Bethesda! That's the same place as the company that made it, this guy's trying to sell his game on here! Shameful, dude.

Summary: PotC
Review: First I have to say that all this talk about bugs isnt making any sense to me. Ive not encountered one yet. And, besides that, this is an extremely entertaining game.

This is the first RPG ive ever bought and played and I am very happy with my purchase. The beginning of the quest is slow, but it quickly picks up pace. Ive not actually finished the main story yet, but I have encountered several long and fun subquests along the way. You can become a hitman for a merchant or simply escort traders to their desination.

I have only one major complaint: It's way to difficult manuevering throughout the jungle areas of an island. There need to be more signs to mark the pathways.

Besides that complaint, there really isnt much else. Overall, I believe that if you have a decent computer you probably wont encounter these bugs that others are finding unberable. The prive on this game is very cheap right now as well, only $20 for a 45 hour quest and many other subquests and freelance play.

Summary: I wasted $50 on this.
Review: First off, there are like two games in this, which would make one think that it would be great.

1. The RPG gameplay is pathetic, it is to hard, and at night, you cannot see whatsoever.
2. You cannot defeat ships or even hit the ships. BAD!

3. TERRIBLE GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
