Pirate jokes have been done to death, and mostly by Ron Gilbert himself! He is teamed up with one of the guys who created Deathspank, a game which Ron Gilbert also wrote for. I just hope this isn't the place where Ron Gilbert's career in video games goes to die. Nothing would be more depressing than seeing…
