You saw the IGN article as well? And the second GameSpy article? What about the Computer Games magazine 8-page article? There will be at least one more online article before the end of the month. Then our website will go up for the game. And the fan forums are starting to buzz. I just finished demoing an early version of the game for some of our sales folks and they love it. We'll keep it coming!

Best,
Jeff Foley

Yep. All the articles are good.

If it was for the http://www.addictedtopirates.com/ forums, I would have overlooked the sword fight intro video on IGN. FWIW, I'm interested in knowing what will be mod-able. As always, jealous that you get to try all these great games out.

BTW, that's a nifty looking pirate flag behind Sid in the one photo :hint: :hint:

So this is a remake of the original right? Cool... that game was fun, I never got far in it though. Those screenshots look pretty interesting...
