I hate this game with a passion. I had expected somthing so much better seeing as how the movie was so good. But no, they don't even give Jack the right color bandana! And not just that they screwed up or are missing every major charactor, but the graphics are so bad, you can't tell friend from foe until they stab you. Please, please don't waste your money on this game. Not the advance version anyway.

Well, lets see... first off, this game stinks. If you want a good game like the Pirates of the Carribean movie, look elsewhere.

No save option in game, instead you need passwords. If you think this game is like the old PC based Pirates Gold, you are wrong. This game is mission based and boring to this gamer seeking a portable Pirates Gold clone.

Barely acceptable

The only reason I gave this game two stars was that the sea battles were fairly fun......the rest was just plain awful.......it came pre-packaged with a GBA (the kiss of death for a game right there). don't bother unless you get it for 50 cents.............

a waste of money-sort of

If you are looking for a game with characters that look like the movie's, don't buy this one! The graphics are not that bad in general, but the character portrayals are awful. Some of the levels become boring after about a minute, if you are still playing the level at the end of a minute. If you want a game that follows the movie's story line, this is not the game for you.

whoever says this is fun is really messed up

I bought this game for a long roadtrip, but was absolutly digusted in it. I though it would be fabulous because I luved the movie. But it wasn't. The only reason i gave this 2 stars was because the graphics were great. The players are slow moving, and it becaimes frustrating because the enemys move faster. Also they are hard to control. I often found myself hitting pillows and other vcarious objects around me in frustration. The levels are super easy. I returned it and got another one in hope that the game was just messed up and the charecters would move faster. HA HA they never did. it was basically a waste of money. I bought Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, and found it much better
NOTE: this probaly would work really well for younger people, but i am 14 and it wasn't to my tastes

When my brother bought the game I thought it looked interesting and started playing it as Jack Sparrow on the island where he was deserted by Barbossa and his crew. I wasn't too impressed by the way they portrayed Jack. Personally I am really bugged by when video games, books, etc. are not even close to the movie or wherever it orignated. The game itself is rather slow, and I got very bored with it. I haven't gotten very far because of the slow pace, but others may enjoy and play the game as much as the next person.

Nothing Like The Movie Starring Johnny Depp, But Still Fun!

I was hoping that this action/adventure game would be based on the blockbuster film version that starred Johnny Depp and Geoffrey Rush, but I was greatly dissapointed. It's a bit silly and I'm still getting used to my new GBA that I got for my B-Day yesterday, but I know Video Games quite well. I'm still getting used to this mini game system as I said before, I'm so used to my Ps2, but the GBA doesn't let you down however! Although this game is cartoonish and cheesy and made for 8 and under, this 22 year old still finds it quite enjoyable when I'm bored. If you are expecting some awesome, eye popping adventure game then save your money and get it for PS2 instead. But if you just want some mindless, easy, cute fun while travelling or while waiting to catch a bus...then get this game, it's pretty cute!
