The game has been around for over two decades but gained the most notoriety when it was re-released on PC in 2004. Since that time, the swashbuckling adventure has been ported to every platform known to man, so it's no surprise to finally see a Wii version of the game. The surprise is the fact that the team behind the port took almost no time to fix bugs or clean up the gameplay, and the perfunctory motion controls fall into the trap of being nothing more than waggle for the sake of waggle. While this edition of the game may appeal to those who have never played Pirates! on any other platform, it's far from a definitive edition."

With Original Xbox titles now available thanks to the sizeable list of new additions, here are our thoughts on which ones are most deserving of your time, along with the one’s we’d recommend you leave in the past – although should you be one that enjoys going back in time, this week’s arrivals hardly have anything you wouldn't want to be playing."
