Rob alwys has interesting videos, but I thought that this one would be of interest to wargamers.
The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.   -G'Kar

A look back at Pirates! on C64, Pirates! Gold on Sega Genesis and Pirates! Live the Life on Windows:


I spent so much time with Pirates! on C64 - the first time I encountered an open world sandbox game. And with its lack of in game references I became very well acquainted with the locations of ports in 17th century Caribbean using my dad's atlas. :lol:

(And I could tell what ship I was encountering, based on the sound of the 1541-II disk drive when loading the graphic. :nerd: :blush: )
We are born dying, but we are compelled to fancy our chances.
