It also captures the spirit of both the old pirate movies, imparting a sense of heroism and roguishness within the player.

It’s got a sense of fun, a main character that can be outfitted in a bikini, lots of swordplay, a chance to bend the laws of Nature in really big ships, and playability that’s easy to pick-up.

80A tired remake of "Tomb Raider" without the intrigue.

80A great idea for a game, but it needs refinement in item management and greater variety in the sea and land battles.

Blends solid and fresh gameplay with great graphics and exceptional sound design to create a title that lets you relish life on the high seas.

78An endearing and well thought-out game. It's neither extremely innovative, nor technically impressive--rather, it's an especially well-executed example of a fairly common sort of game.

Unsurprisingly, this looks better than the PS2 version, but me timbers remain unshivered. [June 2002, p.83]

There is considerable room for improvement, but Pirates is a hearty choice for those who'd rather focus on attacking than adventuring.

The game's odd predilection for nighttime levels ensures that players will be doing double duty fighting and squinting. [Summer 2002, p.91]
