Yep, lots. As incredible as it might seem, most of the tools have versions in portuguese, and the translations are pretty decent too. I'd rather have the english version, not to mix things up, but those are the versions that they have here, so... :)

hehehe thought you guys would like that one better

Styxx, the name of that game is Earth 2150...it's...a bloody amazingly good RTS.

excellent excellent graphics even tho it's 2 years old.  EE is 2d with zoom...Earth2150 is fully 3d...it's like Ground Control cept you can build units and make your OWN units n' stuff.

E2150 games utilize LOTSA strategy.....since you can make your own units...things can become a bit tricky

Played it. I think I'm using my RedAlert discs as coasters. It converted me all right. It converted me to thinking that Westwood can't make anything but lame-ass rehashes of their first good game, Dune2.
