Evening Reading: Faylure Averted
by Chris Faylor, Nov 18, 2009 6:00pm PSTI was rather worried today wouldn't bring anything on par with yesterday's Mass: We Pray trailer, but it seems my concerns were misplaced. Good show, Pringles Asia.
Now if you'll excuse me, I need to hunt down some form of sustenance before hunkering down for tonight's Left 4 Dead 2 session. But first, a look at today's top stories:
- Broken Records: Activision Trumpets Modern Warfare 2 Sales
- Army of Two Sequel Trailer: Army of Bling
- S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat Benchmark Tool Released
- No More Heroes Coming to PlayStation 3, Xbox 360
By the way, CNN wants you to know that Barack Obama can indeed answer questions. Meanwhile, it seems that computers can now think like cats.

My buddy and I went through the Evasion Spec Op mission on Veteran. It's the one where you're creeping through a snowy forest having to avoid patrols and/or snipe them and their dogs.
One particular choke point kept frustrating us. We restarted about 10 times. Finally we decided to jump on Vent. So like the single player mission I was counting down "3...2...1...fire" allowing us to take down groups in a synchronized fashion.
It was awesome. I also felt like a huge nerd, but it was awesome.
I'm not missing the traditional co-op of running through the single player story. What they did here is excellent; I hope future DLC offerings give more Spec Op missions.
