As the movie industry has it's remakes, so does the gaming world. I remeber owning this game on my C64 i think it was. Basically it is completely redone to fit the hardware and abilities of the consoles of today. the graphics are great, the story remains the same, and it was never a bad story. sail the oceans. pillage and murder. sink, enter and of course, dig for burried treasure if you get the map. It all looks good, and it plays nice. a swordfgight or two to subdue the enemy captain, or commander and the place is yours. expand your fleet, expand your wealth and cut the throats of those in your way. Sid's classic, remains that, a classic, but now it is a better looking classic. I have to admit that the AI of the ship fighting scene isn't great. Especially when you are outgunned. But it is a small issue, and the original had the same flaw.
So Sid, please continue, and start converting 'UFO enemy unknown'.
