Sid Meier’s Pirates! ship to stores. Royal Navy on high alert.
Avast, landlubbers! Take-Two Interactive and Firaxis happily announce that a bunch of scurvy knaves shall invade game stores as scheduled today, packaged in little UMD discs for the PSP. Certainly one of the more interesting ports to the PSP we’ve seen in some time now, Sid Meier’s Pirates! is now available at your friendly neighborhood store for the price of eight doubloons, or US $ 22.99 (and since doubloons are extinct, that leaves…).
If you have played the PC or Xbox 360 version of this update of a Sid Meier classic, then you know what to expect: ships, sails, swashbuckles, revenge against a family enemy, and Dance Dance Revolution with every Governor’s daughter in the Carribean. And the PSP version promises four-way battles via Wi-Fi, and “fully-utilized widescreen and controls” (hey, we had to quote on that one).
This writer remembers the PC version being a hoot, and having it on the go might be quite a nice idea, too (hey, I don’t have a laptop…). Let’s see how this game plays in the days to come. Now excuse me, but aren’t there a couple of decks that need some swabbing?
