I've been playing some StarCraft II co-op with a friend, and it's great fun. We've been decimating the competition. Now and then, I jump into the campaign to unlock more achievements or get missions done on a harder level, but so far, I am having a good time with it.
With the first footage from DiRT 3 released yesterday, I came across
this promo clip featuring Ken Block, who's been signed by Codemasters as a technical consultant for the previous game. The video shows some serious jaw-dropping precision driving, so you have to check it out. It'll have you jump up and down in your seat as he performs tricks with pinpoint accuracy in his Subaru Impreza WRX.
