Japan Gets God Of War Trailer [8]
God Of War III DLC “Possible” [14]
Looks like the God Of War team are looking for an online specialist, then, according to this job posting. “Sony Computer Entertainment Santa Monica is seeking an online gameplay programmer to join the team behind the critically acclaimed AAA titles God of War and God of War II,” says the advert. The role will involve design, development and maintenance of “the networking portions of game and tools code” and will require the individual to “interact with gameplay programmers to make existing and new code support desired network functionality.” The job post mentions lobbying, commerce, chat, and security.
We’re guessing this is for God Of War III, but it might not be.

Update: we’ve been told this is the same job advert from last year, just revised…

Wait, no, I’m now predicting Kratos/TV’s Gladiators mashup with dueling thingmys and scotish referees.

Good news. Co-op in games these days is usually really well done, online or local. Just played the Resi5 demo on local co-op, and I’m well chuffed
Proper looking forward to this!

I wouldn’t like co-op.
I like GoW as a single player thing. I’m sure whatever they do would be good, but I hope the single player remains something for you to do alone.

Maybe it will have co-op? As everything must have co-op otherwise it’s marked down!

Hmm could be interesting. Not sure if I approve of Kratos going online though.

They gave in under the pressure. So it’s gonna have mediocre online that takes some of the quality of the SP. Sigh…

I should apply to this job! They may not hire me (unless they are really desperate!!), but they could tell me all their online secrets for GOW III.
