America's Army 2.0 Available for Linux and OS X

Posted by simoniker on from the iterate-and-celebrate dept.

Time Doctor writes "Linux and Mac gamers will be happy to hear that America's Army 2.0 is out of private beta, and available via mirrors at 3DGamers and HappyPuppy, among others. See this news post on the AA site for the gameplay changes." We covered the release of the Windows version of AA 2.0 a couple of weeks back, as this free FPS recruiting tool continues toward its goal of "providing civilians with an inside perspective and a virtual role in today's premiere land force, the U.S. Army."

    Interesting now that they released a version for Linux. Now the USA can recruit an army of Linux users along with a massive army of Linux Penguins to go in and clean them out. ;)

    The army's been starting to switch some things to Linux

    I don't want combat troops that know Linux - their muscles are probably too atrophied to carry an M16.
