File this one under “Looks good on paper, but could be a potential shark-jumping disaster,” folks. The eagle eyes of the Internet have recently spotted ajob listing on SCEA’s Web sitefor a full-time online gameplay programmer to join the Santa Monica team that worked onGod of WarandGod of War II.
It’s not a huge leap to assume that the job listing in question is looking for a team member to work on the upcomingGod of War III. What is interesting however is the hint that the upcoming PlayStation 3 sequel would have online gameplay elements. I’m hesitant to say that this excites me — I’m passionate about theGod of Warseries, but I’m afraid that a cooperative mode could compromise the narrative if not done properly. And a versus mode? Don’t even get me started on how sillythatcould be.
Surely we’re nowhere near seeing the release ofGod of War III, but hopefully Sony Santa Monica are far enough along in the development that we may see or hear something soon.
