Get the Go commit not living anymore mug.An arcade-style mecha fighting game where you pit custom buitl robots against opponents for the PS series of consoles.
Great game spanning soon to be all 4 of Sony's PlayStation consoles. Although initially it would appear none of the American versions had online, you could tunnel into Master of Arena and Nexus to get online. In my opinion the best game series for the Playstation line of consoles.
It had several infamous villans, including (but not limited to) Nineball, Stinger, and Leos Klein.
If you can find it, get it. It's hard at first, but the more you play, the more fun it gets.

Get the Armored Core mug.A communities embodying “dynamic decentralized resilience” providing for their own security, their own power generation, possibly even their own food, by forming local cooperative collectives. Armored Suburbs will deploy and maintain backup generators and communications links; they will be patrolled by civilian police auxiliaries that have received corporate training and boost their own state-of-the-art emergency response systems. The need for Armored Suburbs will become increasingly apparent as the nation state extracts increasing levels of resources while failing to provide basic security, a stable currency, and other essential public goods. The death of the nation state will lead to anarchic responses by many, but will also lead to networked, self-sufficient, local communities that will step into the breach abandoned by the bankrupt nation state. The rise of Armored Suburbs will preserve the Western heritage of political and economic freedom in response to these upcoming challenges.
A related concept is the "resilient community".
The concept of the Armored Suburb is derived from the writing of John Robb, William Lind, and indirectly to Martin van Creveld.

"When the United States became a failed state in the mid-21st century, most of the population died off, but some survived and prospered in Armored Suburbs."

Get the Armored Suburb mug.Essentially it means oboe of love in Italian. In the double reed family along with the oboe, the english horn, bassoon etc, the oboe d'amore is an unusual but goreous instrument. It has a slightly more tranquil tone and it's bell is shaped like an apple. It is in the key of A whereas oboe is in C and english horn is in F.
After waning popularity in the late 18th century, the oboe d'amore fell into disuse for about 100 years until composers such as Richard Strauss (for example in the Symphonia Domestica where the instrument represents the child), Claude Debussy (for example in Gigues, where the oboe d'amore has a long solo passage), Maurice Ravel, Frederick Delius, and others began using it once again at the end of the 19th century. It can be heard in Toru Takemitsu's "Vers, L'Arc-en-Ciel, Palma," but its most famous modern usage is, perhaps, in "Boléro" by Maurice Ravel where the oboe d'amore follows the E-flat Clarinet to recommence the main theme for the second time around. American composer William Perry uses the oboe d'amore in his film scores and most recently in the third movement of his Jamestown Concerto for Cello and Orchestra (2007).

Get the Amoretti mug.Armored Trooper Votoms - Japanese military science fiction mecha anime series produced by Nippon Sunrise, created & directed by Ryosuke Takahashi & featuring mechanical designs by Kunio Okawara. Following directly in the footsteps of Takahashi's previous series, Fang of the Sun Dougram, VOTOMS continued the trend towards hard science in the mecha anime subgenre.
Armored Trooper Votoms ,
main weapon of the conflict is the common Armored Trooper, a mass-produced humanoid combat vehicle piloted by a single soldier. Both the Armored Troopers & their pilots are also known as VOTOMS (Vertical One-man Tank for Offense & ManeuverS). However, since Armored Troopers have extremely thin armor, & use a highly combustible liquid in their artificial muscle, their pilots have a very low chance of survival .
The series follows a main character named Chirico Cuvie , a special forces Armored Trooper pilot & former member of the Red Shoulder Battalion, an elite force used by the Gilgamesh Confederation in its war against the Balarant Union. Chirico is suddenly transferred to a unit engaged in a suspicious mission, unaware that he is aiding in the theft of secrets from what appears to be his side. Chirico is betrayed & left behind to die, but he survives, is arrested by the Gilgamesh military as a traitor, tortured for information on their homeworld. He escapes, triggering a pursuit extending across the entire series, with Chirico hunted by the army & criminals alike as he seeks the truth behind the operation. He is especially driven to discover the truth of one of the objects he was assigned to retrieve in that operation: a mysterious & beautiful woman who would become his sole clue to unraveling the galactic conspiracy.
