<b>LUSITANO, </b>I think what you might be looking for is something that KOEI has been working on - there was an old game called "Uncharted Waters" - it came out for the PC and also for Nintendo. You sailed the whole WORLD - and in the second version of the game, "New Horizons" you could play a pirate or do other different quests depending upon the character you chose.
Then there were more versions of the game that never came out in English, only in Korean and Japanese, I believe.
Their newest version of this game is called "Uncharted Waters ONLINE" and will be a HUGE online gaming experience where you CAN sail the entire world. It sounds to me to be a bit ambitious, but I've seen the game in action (it's not out yet, I saw it at E3 last year) and it looks tremendous.
According to what I read in some of their forums, it's already been through betatesting, and the Japan release is due this month - March 15th, I believe. Not sure at all what's happening about any kind of release for the rest of the world... KOEI has a branch office in the USA but at E3 they didn't seem to know much about UWO... The one fellow who did talk with us said they were looking at releasing it for the rest of the world - in English - but had no further details at that time... <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />

I think that's what you're really looking for - and just a small tidbit - one of the main characters you could play in UWNH is PORTUGUESE (Joao Franco), and the ONLY main character in UW is from Portugal. I think you'd like those old games. They're pretty simple by today's standards but I still bring 'em out and play them once in a while. They're FUN and absorbing, IMO one of the best old sailing "pirate" games around... <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/onya.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="
