I agree, a great choice

I absolutely love this game. I too started with the C64 version and then I think I pretty much bought the ported version that was available for each system as I upgraded. As you say the most recent version is very good. It managed to keep the spirit and charm of the original whilst upgrading in exactly the right places.

As a matter of interest have you played Pirates of the Burining Sea? Basically it's exactly the same but in MMO form. I wonder if Sid Meier considered suing!?

BTW Sea Fever is also one of my favourite poems. All in all an excellent video.
