ok Finally a good pirate game that didnt need a movie to get created. very fun multi player options and Many ships to choose from to go head to head against one another in this title. you adventure as Kat a notorious pirate (how she got to be notorious i dunno) that must go to a variety of islands and different land zones to complete various platformer type objectives while using hack n slash rpg style elements.

Graphics: 4 stars (could have been better but its old)
Sound: 3 stars (water and cannons sound good enemies dont.)
Overall: multiplayer adds a star making this one a 4 star purchase. (might want to rent first due to current pricing.)
Pirates- The Legend of Black Kat

Fun Game

If you like Tomb raider this game is for you. The worlds are massive and well designed. I bought this because Westwood's command and conquer games are so good. They didn't disappoint me with Pirates. The two player mode could be a little more in-depth, but otherwise this game is really solid. I would recommend this to anyone that want a good action/adventure game.

ARGHHH... MATEYS! IT BE A GOOD GAME!!!

One of the most underrated games for the PS2 along with Beyond Good and Evil. This game is a lot of fun as you explore islands for treasure, fight giant crabs, pirates, and other evil doers, and best of all, fight on the open sea with cannons blazing! I love pirate games and there are few out there that satisfy. If you like Pirates of the Carribean then get this game. The only complaint I have is the ending was sort of a let down (I like a good long FMV). Otherwise, worth its weight in gold.

great 1 player game

When I first read about this game, I was really excited as i loved the old microprose Pirates. I was hoping for something similar. I was skiptical when I read some of the negative reviews for the game, but they kind of focused on the 2 player portion (which is lame). I'm glad I bought it. The graphics are ok nothing spectacular, but the play is fun. There are two modes, ship and captain. In ship mode you sail around fighting other ships, and attacking forts. There are multiple ships to buy (kind of wish you could capture ships you attack) and the bigger the ship the more power and strength it has. Gun fights are fun, and you definitely need strategy for the forts. (I like to turbo by them and blast them with the supershot). In captain mode, you are running around islands fighting pirates, crabs, skelitons, and who knows what else looking for treasure. The combat is pretty good, but not great. The camera is better than most, and fairly easy to control as you move around. I like how the game lets you have every item in the game, but limits you on how many. What I would add to make this a perfect game: Capture ships, cargo and guns. Be able to sell excess cargo. Better directional control when jumping. Be able to ignore the enemy ship explosions. Zoom view so you can plot attacks better. HOwever, the game is very addicting, easy to play, all in all a good purchase.

Yar.. This Game Blows!!

Wow. How dumb and repetitive can a playstation 2 game be? This one really really blows. The controls in both ship and land modes are unpercise. The backrounds look good but the animation [stinks]. When your ships blows up, theres this explosion sequence where your character just stands on the ship's deck like nothings happening. Basically that sums up this game, "nothings happening".

DO NOT BUY THIS GAME

I bought this game thinking that the multiplayer portion would be cool. I also figured that, since its a playstation 2 game, it had to be good. I was horribly wrong. This game is the worst game that I have ever played, on computer or console game system. The multiplayer version is comprised of shooting at each other with boats. Thats it. The screens arent split, so if you are far away from your opponent, you are busy squinting at the screen trying to figure who is who...

This Game is so much fun!

I loved this game. Great combination of puzzle solving, treasure seeking, swashbuckling and fighting aboard an awesome masted ship outfitted with 24 cannons. Once started, it's very hard to quit this game. Exhaustion may be the only excuse. An improvement suggestion is a little clearer map to show dock locations. The Volcanic Isles map was very fuzzy.

I'm having fun

The game doesn't have that many options and it's kind of repidative but I'm having fun playing it. Basically you're a girl pirate you have a ship and a sword and your dad dies. Ya kinda sucky but you start going around beating people down.

The ship concept is awesome, basically you start out with a ship with 2 cannons then you get more money and your ship gets bigger and you get alot more cannons. How many more cannons you ask? Well a big boat holds 50 cannons per side, not bad... Oh ya you get different thingies (Sorry can't remember what they're called) to put on the front of your boat. Like one lets you ram other evil boats, one lets you shoot lightning cannons balls etc...

I like the ship concept better then playing as the girl, but shes pretty cool, she gets two swords and you get different betters swords as the game progresses. The fighting style is like fencing, it looks pretty cool

Well that's all I have, I liked it and had fun playing it.

buy this game for the ship battle

I always research any game before I buy. This one came recommended from numerous sources throughout the web and stores. I pick up the game and from the start it was slow paced and very unimaginative. The game lacks in every aspect. From graphics to storyline. I do not recommend this to anyone. Please save your money or donate it to a worhty cause.
