5.0 out of 5 stars Play Pirates , 7 Feb 2009
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
Oh boy! What uncomplicated fun. Sail around the Caribbean chasing pirates, seeking their hidden treasure, looking for kidnapped relatives, sinking treasure galleons after relieving them of their cargo, and lots, lots more.
one of the best value for money games I've ever bought. The down side? Your character becomes old, but over a long period of time!

2.0 out of 5 stars Good game, poor performance, 23 April 2009
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
While this game is very good the Mac version is very poorly made. Even though my machine is far above the recommended specification the sword fighting scenes slow to a crawl. It's a real shame because the rest of the game is fine and the PC version was without these problems.
