Default PC Pirate games

In your most humblest opinion, whats the best Pirate PC Game out there in terms of authenticity and playability?

They had some mods out for Pirates of the Caribbean (2003) that were awesome. Look them up on ModDB

Akella was on track to do something, but yes, they have failed so far. Sea Dogs currently rates as #1 in my book. Pirates of the Carribean took away some of the good ships and the land combat is a little uh, not so good.

I heard the game 'Pirates!' is pretty entertaining. I played the first version many moons ago, but the new version I have not.

Sea Dogs and Sea Dogs 2 were nice games, Sid Meier's Pirates was fun. No real raping and murdering pirate games yet so the authentic medal is still up for grabs

From a patriotic and sadistic standpoint, I would love a realistic Viking game.

And we would need a mod that would let us dock the ships outside monasteries on the British Isles, accept gifts and welcomes, and then rape, pillage and slaughter. Nice chaps, my ancestors.:rotfl:

You still call Pirates of the Caribbean Sea Dogs 2? I can see that. I think changing the name and adding a different story to it cost in ship design, etc. Probably the best PC game we will get based on a movie, but the movie took what should have been a great game and cut it off at the knees.
