A console version of Tribes 2 was released in 2002 titled Tribes: Aerial Assault for the PlayStation 2.
Getting the game
Starsiege: Tribes was released as freeware in 2004. You can download the game from a variety of places.
Known Issues
Starsiege: Tribes can't connect to the master server. This is likely due to your client attempting to contact the original Starsiege: Tribes master server, which was taken down in 2007.

If you would prefer to manually change the master server, simply copy the following code to your clipboard:
$Server::MasterAddressN0 = "t1m1.masters.tribesmasterserver.com:28000 t1m1.pu.net:28000 t1m1.tribes0.com:28000 skbmaster.ath.cx:28000 kigen.ath.cx:28000 t1m1.masters.dynamix.com:28000";
Start up the game and press ~, which opens the console. Press Ctrl+V, press Enter, then restart the client.
Users attempting to play the game on Windows Vista or Windows 7 are unable to use/see their mouse cursor. This issue is resolved by either downloading the Windows Vista fix, or downloading Starsiege: Tribes version 1.40.655.
