A
Kojima
Productions podcast has word that the
promised
PC edition of

right now," and

Steam any day now." Thanks

Piranha has introduced a new
series of gold clan mechs for
MechWarrior Online, their
free-to-play MMO mech combat game. In addition to the obvious camouflage
advantages of their gold skins is word that "the Khan Collections provide pilots
participating in Operation Revival with the most exclusive and treasured of Clan
Technologies." Just be sure to hide the credit card receipts from your
significant other, as one of these bad boys will set you back US$500.00, and
there is no bulk discount, so buying all eight will cost $4000.00. Better hurry,
they say these are available in limited quantities. Thanks Rhialto.
We had plans for the today, but mother nature had it in for us with a heavy
winter storm just getting underway in these parts, which is intimidating, since
I just saw a report that the center of this storm is currently over St. Louis,
which is not exactly part of the greater New York area. When we
were looking at this early in the week the forecast for today showed a 40%
chance of some snow late in the day. Every day following that the projected chance
of snow increased and the start time of the storm crept earlier so by yesterday and earlier to
the point yesterday where they were calling it a 100% chance of snow to begin
around 10:00 am. I got up at 7:30 and we already had an inch on the
ground, and they've extended the hazardous weather outlook through tomorrow
morning, so it was not a mistake to cancel our plans by any stretch. I think the replacement plan is going to
involve shoveling and hot cocoa.
