The Sony PlayStation 3 is no different as the console has hard hitting franchise like Killzone, Uncharted, SOCOM and more. Another franchise that has long been favored by gamers is the God of War series. If you haven’t played the game you’re essentially just hacking and slashing your way through wave after wave of baddies in an epicly badass fashions.

However, while the core gameplay featured in God of War is quite entertaining there is no online multiplayer provided – or any online experience at all for that matter. But, it seems that this all may change as it was recently noted that the developers of the God of War franchise have begun looking for an online engineer who’s duties will including working on matchmaking, in-game chatting and more.

Though Bungie has struck out on their own again Microsoft isn’t going to abandon their scifi cash cow Halo. They’ve posted a job opening looking for a lead designer for a new Xbox 360 game. While there are new games in development all the time, the company has confirmed to IGN that whoever was hired would work on the internal Halo team that was formed last year to oversee new projects and support existing games.

Unfortunately as you might expect Microsoft is being relatively tight-lipped about any project particulars, but there’s all kinds of speculation including the oft-discussed Peter Jackson Halo project and the wealth of possibilities that exist. I myself would love to see a squad-based tactical RPG set in the Halo universe. There could be plans to resurrect the cancelled Halo MMO given Blizzard’s success with World of Warcraft.
