User blog comment:J Fan/Idea about Barbossa in POTCO/@comment-1984959-20130109180001

Just to point out: this was just an idea!

I'm not stating Barbossa was a ghost in POTCO as fact, it was only my opinion I wished to share. Now, I know why some would believe Barbossa to be resurrected, most likely from the words of mods...it's completely understandable. However, I can understand how it might be a bit controversial to some that Barbossa was resurrected before Jack's crew met with Tia Dalma. Even I could scratch my head at the idea.

So, because of it not being stated in the game nor its official website, plus the fact of what is seen in Dead Man's Chest, I'm inclined to go with the idea of Barbossa being a ghost. Not trying to ruin POTCO for some, I'm only trying to provide an idea for those who try to connect the movies and the game. You can accept the idea or you can't - anyone's choice, really...just as long as you don't make it completely non-canon(i.e. Barbossa is resurrected then commits suicide again)
