It seems Arkane studios are looking to bring their Source engine-powered first person shooter, The Crossing, to the Xbox 360.
The folks over at French gaming site, Factor News, spotted a job opening today for programmers to help bring the project over to Microsoft's console. Our very own Internet scouring robots found a similar job listing at Arkane's official site; this particular listing doesn't mention the project by name, but the description certainly fits the bill.
This shouldn't come as a surprise -- it's well known that the Source engine and the Xbox 360 play nicely with one another, so it's likely that most of the high-profile Source engine projects (The Crossing, Left 4 Dead, etc.) will eventually make their way into your living room.
Don't know anything about The Crossing? Well, you should -- if everything goes according to Arkane's plan, it could possibly revolutionize multiplayer gameplay as we know it. Hit the jump for a video (via 1up) that might give you some insight into just what The Crossing is all about.
Back in the days when Summa was with Joysuq, he used to post "No Shit Sherlock" posts regularly under the title of Captain Obvious. He recently did it over here and since then Obvious Fever has spread throughtout the D-Toid lands
It seems to me that they are kind of shooting themselves in the foot announcing all this if they can't do it. But I would be excited to see how it turns out.
Jesus Christ, this game sounds good. Especially the multiplayer where your team is accomplishing a single player mission but the other team is doing a multiplayer mode...Fucking Awesome. This is innovation. Keep it the fuck up.
