Pirates of the caribbean games part 1

And I spent hours at a stretch not really sure where to go or what to do, only to--shiver me timbers! It was just enough to keep my interest afloat despite so much of this game being barely shipshape.

The complex plot, deep customization, and copious subquests can't save this shipwreck. It's like Morrowind, minus the best part--exploration. Here, you spend too much time running errands between a handful of tiny islands. The gameplay simply isn't fun: Delving into the intricacies of pirate economics left me cold, and sloppy control leeched all fun out of stabbing skeletal monkeys.

It's not a total wash, though--I warmed up to the naval warfare, and I've rarely seen a nicer virtual sunset. Oxbay Island in the 's is a small, yet burgeoning English settlement in the heart of the Caribbean, and your current port of call. You've just unloaded a nice load of chocolate and silk, and are looking to beef up your crew, when the alarm sounds: 'The French are attacking the port! Quickly returning to your boat, you are one of the few who manage to escape the attack.

Now, you have a choice to make: Will you warn the English governor of the attack? Continue your modest yet lucrative trading business? Or perhaps leave it all behind and enter the cutthroat world of piracy and bootlegging? It's up to you, in Pirates of the Caribbean! I admit it, I was expecting yet another quickly produced, sub-par title based on a blockbuster movie e.

Lord of the Rings. But to my surprise, Pirates of the Caribbean is a well-realized, excellent, and more importantly, fun adventure title. Bethesda Softworks put out a keeper in this one, which obviously must have been in development long before the movie was produced. The unconventional controls take quite a bit of fine tuning to make playable, and though somewhat difficult moving from the first person character movement to full scale ship control, it is still rewarding gameplay.

The graphics are first rate, with detail in both the scenery, character skinning, and all other visual aspects of this title. Audio is crisp and well realized, with a minimum of voiceover distractions; a definite plus in my book.

However, all of these items are merely window dressing for the excellent gameplay. Sea battles are well executed, with good physics and great battle effects torn sails, damaged yardarms. While first person combat is somewhat simplistic, it is also used with good effect. The storyline itself, while a bit contrived, is also fairly accurate to the time period, so no qualms there.

A few minor flaws mar this game. There are still some bugs that cause the title to crash to the desktop, as well as some scripting errors for things that are supposed to happen, and of course, no multiplayer.
