Capcom once had a game called Plunder. Pirate game, kind of like Settlers of Catan, only with swashbuckling. Due for release on XBLA, PSN and PC. I say once, however, because while the game itself is still coming, it's had an enforced name change. Seems something else had already trademarked the name Plunder, forcing Capcom to rename the game Age of Booty. Yes. Age of Booty. Bringing the number of expected E3 games featuring the word "booty" to two. Can't wait for the inevitable booty-off.

This has soooo many awesome photoshop opportunities.  If I get time this afternoon I'll fire up the GIMP and get a couple going.  I can't help but imagine it blinged out in the GTA: SA font with lots of gold necklaces, fishnets, and pimp purples/pinks.

sorry but that logo is just asking to have to butt cheeks firmly planted on the two letter o consonants in "booty".

'Cause you ain't supposed to tell a lady she got a fat ass, even if she ask you she gotta fat ass, you can't say she got a fat ass, even though she suspect she gotta fat ass. But I gotta lie, and subvert reality and pretend that she don't have a fat ass, when the reality, the reason I'm wid her, is because she got a fat ass."

this thread makes me wish for the long-lost expansion pack to an award winning PC RTS:

Age of Empires 2: Age of Consent

E3: The Trailers - Age Of Booty

I know exactly why you’re reading this post. And it’s exactly the same reason I clicked on the video. You’re in for a terrible disappointment, I’m afraid.

Trailer here.

The tagline is "Answer the Call of Booty this Summer!"

Age of Booty sounds like a ghetto version of that one show Age of Love where they see if the bachelor will go for a younger woman or an older woman.

BOOTY CALL!  :P

This looks like that old Psygnosis pirates puzzle game with RTS strapped onto it. I hope it doesn't suck.
