Prelude Recovers From Darkness
Chapter 9 of Frontier - Prelude to Darkness is humming along, despite some seriously hardware failures last week. Fortunately lew82 backs up his data, and work can now resume. The episode is about a third complete, and a release is possible before the end of the month. The latest ship/station to be profile is Terra Prime, a huge base in orbit of Earth.
The station boasts some of the most thick defences in the entire Union territory, Terra Prime has been deemed impregnable and completely competent at defending Earth from any known threat in the galaxy.
Terra Prime has two main docking/dry-dock bays – these at full capacity can house between them six Montgomery-Class Destroyers, which allows Terra Prime to also function as a repair depot if the Jupiter Naval Yards were ever full – which has never occurred.

XBox Update Adds USB Memory Option
The Spring 2010 System Update for XBox 360s was released today. Most notably, it adds USB storage device support. USB flash drives can now be used like memory units or hard drives to store game content, arcade titles and more. There is a limit of 16 gigabytes that can be seen by the XBox, and there are partition options to make larger or smaller drives dual-useful for both gaming and PC storage. The XBox partitions are created with a proprietary format, but it would be pretty darn interesting if someone found a way to creatively examine the contents of Wing Commander Arena.
