We have America's Army 3 now and it also have preload option and will contain Steam Achievements too. Finally it is free, I think it is good but I haven't played first two. By the way I added it to my list. :)

Kekeke, I'm Canadian eh, what aboot me?

Heh.
I guess I will pre-load it. I do like that free games have appeared on both this site and on Steam.

get out, freedom hater!

Yay.... free stuffs on Steam.

Oh, and Red Orchestra is 66% off at $4.99 this week. So yeah.

I'll get it when they lower the price.

The first two were also free. The only reason they're calling it AA 3 is to pump it up as a sequel. AA 1 and 2 were the same thing, just updated versions of the game (They referred to the second as AA v2) though this one looks to be an overhaul.
I'm guessing you didn't like it before? Sure, it was frustrating at times, but it felt like a fun shooter. Also, it was very cool that to be a medic in the game, you had to take classes in the game to learn real-world information (the other tests to gain specialties were also great, but the medic training in particular stuck out to me).

You don't matter in the slightest, like all Canadians, like all of Canada :P

Has anyone played the Fileplanet subscriber beta? How is the game? Is it realistic like Operation Flashpoint or ArmA series?

I have the subscriber beta, but I gave it to TheJoe or something. It's no ARMA, it's more of a modern shooty shooty game, with a little more authenticity compared to COD 4.

Only problem with them appearing at steam is that you can't play them without getting steam mallware on your computer anymore :( so I do hope this does not become common practice. They should offer non-steam version as well.

I have played the very first AA, but it wasn't anything spectacular. Are those new ones somewhat better (or worthy to play?)

THIS IS BIAS, THIS THREAD SHOULD BE REMOVED, I AM OFFENDED AND WISH TO SUE, MY LAWLYERS WILL BE IN TOUCH SOON!
