I NEVER thought I would be this disappointed with a port of Pirates! Pirates! has been my favorite game for a number of years; I went out of my way to see what the Wii version was like.
Multiplayer is terrible. This is a very traditional one-player game. Multiplayer should've been skipped.
The graphics are gorgeous, but the camera is too close, as another reviewer said. I enjoy the ability to customize ships and character.
Achievements and the "roadmap" are nice, but I would like a way to toggle the roadmap on or off.
Finally, the controls. The controls are simply terrible. Sword fighting and dancing are almost impossible. Since the road map includes "marry a governor's daughter," it's almost impossible to finish the game. The controls are just awful and have made me regret renting the game. Thank god I never have to buy a bad game again.
