Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End ships over 2.8 million worldwide
Ah. Right on time! Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End just docked its merry butt onto retail shelves today – that’s all platforms of the game released: PS3, Xbox 360, Wii, PS2, PSP, and NDS. Gawsh, what a mouthful. Aside from the fact that it’s being released across all major consoles and handhelds, you won’t have any problems finding a copy of the game. The press release from Disney Interactive states that they’ve shipped over 2.8 million copies worldwide. Sheeesh.
But maybe you’re wondering what’s the difference between the different versions. Let’s take a walk down the plank, shall we? We’ll keep it simple: the PS3 gets SIXAXIS support, Achievements abound in the 360 version, the Wii makes use of the Wiimote and Nunchuk, the PSP allows you to use a different set of moves and combos, and the DS makes the most out of touchpad and stylus interaction.
Now of course, this are just the bare minimal of differences – hell, you can transplant those to other multiplatform game releases. It’s natural for a publisher to make the most use out of the different platforms, and make sure to add some exclusive content and features in their games various releases.
