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."

    We train our kids to patriotic and believe in the "right" god, compared to other nations teaching their children to be terrorists and be in wierd cults. It's all a matter of point of view. We in America think we're right. You think you're right. Calling names isn't going to solve anything.

    You know, as military personal, I can honestly say, you people do a lot of talk, but I don't see a lot of action.

    Where were you when Iraq invaded Kuwait? Or when the Kosovars were getting massacred by Bosnians? When Hilter invaded? What were you doing while Somalians were starving? Or when the Taliban had Afghanistan under it's terroristic grip? When two planes crashed in the World Trade Center, what were you doing?

    I hear a lot of talk from a lot of people. But never any action.

    PS: Does anyone else think the commercial for MS' game, Rainbow Six, is fucked up? "Freedom isn't free". Iow, to be free, we need to murder lots of people in other countries. What abhorrent bullshit.

    I'm sure that you'd also hate to see what it looks like when they make sausage.

    War is ugly business. War is an abomination to God and man. War is also unfortunately sometimes necessary. Some of the people in this world are BAD people. Some of the people in this world think nothing of killing innocents. The only way to stop people like that is with force. Monsters we are, lest monsters we become.

    To be honest, I was against the war in Iraq, but Saddam is/was a monster and the world as well as the people of Iraq are better off without him.
