America's Army 2.0 Available for Linux and OS X

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."

    I suspect any mods that disparage the image of the U.S. military would be frowned upon. And since most modders would object to going through an official approval process for their creative works, I'm not surprised if mod options don't get very far.

    FYI, you stupid shit, the US hasn't fought a defensive war -- a war to defend our freedom -- since the Revolutionary War. Every other war we have either initiated or joined in in a hostile basis. All of those soldiers fought and died for the alterior motives of various Presidents, politicians, and special interest groups -- not to preserve our freedom, despite what you may have been brainwashed into thinking.

    Of course Freedom isn't free. Ideally, in an anarcho-capitalistic world, it takes money to pay law-enforcement agencies to protect us from random criminal acts. However, you cannot preserve Freedom or increase Freedom by murdering thousands of individuals (which is all that war is).
