Otherwise, weee! Pirate games are almost always a good thing. Title: Re: Arrrrrr! Post by: schild on April 26, 2005, 11:11:55 AM In other news, this game is (http://www.piratesoftheburningsea.com/index.php) slowly moving along. It looks as though we might see it in 2026.
Title: Re: Arrrrrr! Post by: WayAbvPar on April 26, 2005, 03:04:40 PM I forgot all about that game. Also, Ultimate Baseball Online- are they still around? I stopped getting emails from them some time back. Probably when I switched ISPs... :-D
Title: Re: Arrrrrr! Post by: Nazrat on April 26, 2005, 03:20:40 PM I got an email from UBO last week. They have teamed up with ESPN for some sort of mini game.
They are dedicated in spamming me even though I have never played the game. Title: Re: Arrrrrr! Post by: Trippy on April 26, 2005, 07:56:33 PM Disney to launch Pirates of the Carribean MMORPG.

(http://www.3drealms.com/duke4/) I was under the impression 3dRealms had enough cash to taunt us forever. Title: Re: Arrrrrr! Post by: Yegolev on April 27, 2005, 07:09:28 AM From pirates to Duke Nukem in six posts? This is what happens when real news is slow.
Title: Re: Arrrrrr! Post by: HaemishM on April 27, 2005, 08:41:22 AM I forgot all about that game. Also, Ultimate Baseball Online- are they still around? I stopped getting emails from them some time back. Probably when I switched ISPs... :-D They are still around, but last time I played it, *NDA NDA NDA* and I'm not playing it now. Take that for what you will. EDIT: Also, 3D Realms has just announced they have something to do with a game coming out. Quote New York, NY - April 26, 2005 - 2K Games, a publishing label of Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. (NASDAQ: TTWO), and 3D Realms today announced Prey, a revolutionary first person shooter for PC and a next-generation console system in development at Human Head Studios, under the direct supervision of 3D Realms. "The initial concept for Prey had been incubating for a while, waiting for the right opportunity to come along," said George Broussard, President of 3D Realms. "We jumped at the chance to create this game with a talented developer like Human Head Studios and next-generation technology like the Doom 3 engine." Scott Miller, CEO of 3D Realms, added, "Prey is special for many reasons, including several new and original gameplay features and a tightly integrated story that packs an emotional punch, unlike other first person shooters." "Our collaboration with 3D Realms has been enormously rewarding," added Timothy Gerritsen, CEO of Human Head Studios. "With their help, Prey is sure to breathe new life into the first person shooter genre with a compelling story, innovative gameplay mechanics and dazzling imagery, which is powered by our significantly enhanced version of id Software's original Doom 3 engine." Prey will be exclusively showcased at this year's E3 Expo by ATI in a movie theater-style exhibition. For the world exclusive first details on the game, look for PC Gamer's June issue featuring Prey as its cover story, arriving on newsstands in early May. Prey is currently planned for a 2006 release. Direct supervision must mean "Nod your head at the demos and cash the royalty checks." Title: Re: Arrrrrr! Post by: Yegolev on April 27, 2005, 09:14:41 AM Where the hell does 3DRealms get the cash to operate every day? What is a normal workday for Scott Miller? Come in, check his Ebay auctions, then go play golf? I'm not a finance-type but I don't get it.
