Go to the forums, raise awareness, ask to linux port, talk to them. This is OUR U.S. army (public money) going into development. Put out the word.

...because that would be kind of sick wouldn't it.


"Ubuntu is the essence of being human. It speaks of the fact that my humanity is caught up and is inextricably bound up in yours. I am human because I belong. It speaks about wholeness, it speaks about compassion. A person with Ubuntu is welcoming, hospitable, warm and generous, willing to share. Such people are open and available to others, willing to be vulnerable, affirming of others, do not feel threatened that others are able and good, for they have a proper self-assurance that comes from knowing that they belong in a greater whole. They know that they are diminished when others are humiliated, diminished when others are oppressed, diminished when others are treated as if they were less than who they are. The quality of Ubuntu gives people resilience, enabling them to survive and emerge still human despite all efforts to dehumanize them." - Desmond Tutu.

I don't know how many installed Slune, but those that did might be a bit "disappointed" as it promises 3D car racing and crashing but it brings (besides crashing and racing) a very important message that not all have access to the medical drugs that they need, and that pharmaceutical companies get lots of money from it.
Well do the same thing just for shooter. I thought that Call of Duty 2 was to some extent like that having "anti war" quotes before every mission and also you died quickly and not after an "nuke gun" was shot at you several times (like some Quake).
Or even better make an MMORPG (or whatever) similar to America's army but once your dead your dead, you can't play it any more, you can't make a new account or anything.
This might be a good way to get the message out that war is no game and you really die in it.

Americas Army if you have played it is really a good game. It tries to show combat situations, takes you through training, and is the closest to the true life shooting game that I have seen. I think they are making it more realistic.

I believe Americas Army on Ubuntu and other games ported to Linux is worthwhile.. I think it is likely to early for a ARM port, but definitely would like to see for Intel platforms.
