Puzzle Pirates Done, Walking Plank To Release

Spuggy writes "Ahoy mates! Yohoho! Puzzle Pirates (originally mentioned a few months back on Slashdot Games) now has an official launch date of December 8th, 2003 - it's available in Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X flavors, and has been playable in Beta form for a while now. For those of you who have still not tried the game out, Puzzle Pirates is an interesting marriage of several puzzle games and aspects of a MMORPG; but instead of your typical hack & slash of EverQuest, you perform various single/multiplayer 2D puzzles to power your boat, craft various goods in the game, and even fight your fellow players and a series of NPC Brigand boats who threaten your voyages across the ocean!"

    coming from someone who is actually playing World of Warcraft: It's not going to rock a damned thing. If the devs keep up what they have planned they are going for the market that is already there. Nothing new or innovative at all is appearing in World of Warcraft as far as i know. I know in a few more patches they are going to test a new feature, that *might* make the game rock a boat(hint hint) but for now, what is planned is a generic mmorpg. It plays like everquest mixed with AC1.
