Sucker Punch are looking for a Network Programmer.

We are evaluating focused, easy to work with, and professional candidates to implement the on-line component for our forthcoming AAA title. We seek bright, energetic, and talented individuals who share our love of videogames and our passion for creating innovative and fun experiences. This job will involve both client-side and server-side work, and will be done primarily in C++.

Requirements

• 3+ years commercial programming experience. Game industry experience is not strictly required, but is strongly preferred.
• Practical experience building distributed systems. Experience building on-line components of video games is a major plus.
• Must be fluent in C++. Coding experience in Assembly (for any processor) is a big plus, as is experience with Lisp or Scheme.
• BS or higher in computer science or a related discipline.
• Must be legally able to work in the United States.

I was just talking about how cool it would be for them to make a Motown version about a month ago! I'm excited that it's already in production!! I can't wait for Motown and Queen to come out!!!



Ummm, wait. I just looked it up on Wikipedia and it says the Motown release will be Sept. 2009 in the UK. I didn't see a release date for the US. Wtf is that?

Most singstar games do not come out in the US, we're still waiting for Vol. 3 and wireless microphones.

As far as SP new game, I expect it to be inFamous 2, though I am hoping for some Sly love as well.

I can confirm, SCEA are now calling the new PSP game echoshift.

Don't know if it's a PS3 or PSP title yet but there's this teaser page with a suited-man sitting and some fruity music.

How many odd European music things are there for the PS3 (not counting VidZone)? I might want to start a collection.

[Shin-Ra]

Added the God of War Collection.

More from Just Add Water after Gravity Crash on PSN.

For Just Add Water, PlayStation Network has been an ideal place for their foray into independent development. They would “definitely” work with Sony again, “and we are… I just can’t talk about it yet”.
