Jack Thompson . . . "The Army is training kids at taxpayer expense to become sociopaths and killers,"

C'mon, Jack, go pester a liberal or something.

A player who shoots a drill sergeant in basic training materializes instantly inside of a jail cell and hears the soulful hum of a harmonica.

That's pretty rough if the player was punished that way. Is there any way we can get Saddam that way? Just beam him to Gitmo?

The Army spent more than $6 million on the game's development, easily three times the industry average.

That's not correct.  The development price of the game was pretty much normal.  They didn't even have to spend time developing the engine because they used the Unreal engine.

The way the Army deployed the game was entirely unique to the industry and boosted the "over all" price.

And it runs great under Linux. Even faster on my box than under Windows.

I guess that they had to find something new since they can't write down the initials of the people who hold the high scores on Battlezone anymore at the corner arcade.

America's Army has been around for about 18 months now. Cool game, and it's free to all.
