The Player 2 PixelCast 190

from Player 2's Podcasts

Avast! Grog! Other pirate-y sounding terms! While we watch July slide slowly towards August and then the eventual avalanche of new game releases, some of us have decided to take cover on a small island, guarding a giant chest full of shiny trinkets and being perpetually buzzed on watered-down rum. Or, in other words, the remake of Black Flag is still fresh in our memories, so we decided to theme this episode around pirates. Who is the greatest video game pirate (not pirate-er of video games)? Which pirate-y game is most worthy of (delicious, non-invasive) cookies? You won't be surprised that there's no definite answer to either question. We've gone overboard (heh) here and invited on a guest who is perhaps way too qualified to contribute to a topic that is, at its heart, quite silly. Because what could be more appropriate for video games right now than taking something that should be fun and then shattering it with harsh realisations of reality?
