Best Xbox Game Ever!!!

This game is sooooo much fun. Kat's moves are very basic so you don't have to spend a ton of time learning annoying combos in order to hurt enemies. The lands you travel to are all very different and I thought they improved as they went on, even the details such as whales in the sea and frogs on land were amazing!!This game is challenging in the sense that you constantly have things to do so your searching for like 4 different things at a time but it isn't soooo challenging that you will get frustrated and give up! Great graphics and storyline are also a definite bonus!!!

I purhcased this game hoping for it to be like the original Pirates! It is not like the original but very well done nonetheless. The first person mode is somewhat simple but fun and the ship battles are fantastic. THe graphics are good and the water looks amazing. You can see sea turtles or dolphins swimming by while you sail your ship. THis game is great for all ages! A definate buy if you ever wanted to be a pirate.

Decent Pirate Game....

Though this game was moderately hyped I was looking forward to it being a fan of the Pirate genre. The first person aspect of the game is okay, but takes a while to get good at the insane camera angles and there is considerable clipping. The sea battles are pretty good and the story is moderately entertaining. Most parts of the game are really easy which is good if you are 12 or just lousy at most video games like I am. But some parts are really fustrating and confusing. Overall it could have been a much better game...

Good, but not great Pirates game...

Pirates - Legend of Black Kat is a decent game. Average graphics with average combat with average islands. It's certainly not a BAD game, but it just isn't all it could have been. Two points of mention though - the water looks amazing, and ship battles are pretty cool

I WISH I HAD A HOOK FOR A HAND

This has got to be every pirate-sailor's dream! The impressive grafics are only matched by the lay-out & game plan. The multi-quest adventure allows one to seek options, while challenging them to truly "prove themselves". I'm not sure who has enjoyed it more....myself or my wife! (She insists that SHE's "Kat")!

This game is way too easy. If it weren't for the stacked main character I'd have returned this game on day one.

The graphics are weak, very arcade-y and not at all what I expect from an Xbox title. The land-based game play is just mindless button-mashing until everything is dead. The sea-based missions are sort of ok, but only because there's an incredible dearth of sea-based games. Anything even halfway decent would make this game truly forgettable.

It is fun to upgrade your ship from a crummy little barque to a lumbering man-o-war. Once you've done that though, forget about challenge. With the big ships, you could sink an island.

This game _could_ be ok for young people, beginners, or people who are normally bad at games and want to feel like they're good at games. Not that being good at games is worth anything, it's just that if you are, you'll rip through this game in a couple days and realize it wasn't really that much fun.

good game...however it seems to be way to long at one point

all the battles after you got a great ship are all alike and quite easy with the wind boost. I got stuck after meeting jack frost and there were no more islands to visit after that secret island..i tried a few more times to find a way to move to the next set of islands but i gave up and sold the game on ebay. Its a good game but maybe...a bit too long. Get it used and cheap and its worth it ... but full price?? i dont think so.

Attack of the Glitches!

This game would be okay, if it weren't for an insane amount of glitching that plagues it. The xbox constantly says that the disk is dirty or damaged, causing you to loose what isn't saved of your quest. The game isn't unplayable, but it is VERY irritating. With nice graphics and decent gameplay you can almost overlook the fact that the jerk developers didn't take the time to debug it a little more. Almost. It's not a very challengeing game, and makes a good rental.

SESEME STREET PIRATES

I rented this game in hopes of finally a good first person game other than halo for xbox but was truly dissapointed. The graphics are amazing but storyline and fluidness of the game was not present much at all. Also a s a pirate i don't expect to be fighting giant crab creatures and gorrillas. Also just over all it was pretty plain. What could have been cool if they had more of an interactive enviorment than just forward, kill bad guy, forward, kill another bad guy , get on boat , shoot bad guy boat, get off boat , kill bad guy , etc... Don't expect much of a challenge with this game.
