Heh, had it installed for ages, and about two weeks ago I suddenly had a call to Pirates and now I'm finishing my second walkthrough on Swashbuckler. VERY entertaining, only music has to be changed (got too repetitive) and it's still a brilliant game.
I remember that I could complete first time only because my PC was not up to requirements, so whole game was running slow and thanks to that I had a lot of extra time during combat or dance
Still, I have a soft spot for the original Pirates!, and as much as I like the remake I wish it wasn't so children-directed, with that cartoonish graphics, no blood etc. Oh well, can't have everything I guess...
P.S. Sid Meier is the only game creator I trust, therefore I just bought SMAC with Crossfire for 5pounds on Amazon and soon will be enjoying Mr Meier's genius once more, since after three years of constant playing in CIV I'm a bit worn-out on that subject. So SMAC comes next, oh yessss....
