Visceral Games is hiring a Senior Environment Artist for a position relating to the Dead Space franchise. The listing has been spotted on CreativeHeads.

The interesting part of this news is that the artist will immediately start work on a project for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and an “unannounced” platform. There have been Dead Space 3 rumors flying around recently… and Wii U could handle that title with ease. Perhaps EA intends to develop a port for the upcoming console.

The only question is, would EA consider bringing a second Dead Space game to a Nintendo console? Dead Space Extraction completely bombed on Wii, though to be fair, it was an on-rails shooter and wasn’t what fans had expected. At the same time, there’s no denying that Extraction was a high-quality title.

Ultimately we don’t even have a confirmation that this is Dead Space 3-related, nor do we know that the “unannounced” platform is Wii U. They’re strong assumptions, but in the end they are just guesses!

Thanks to Jake for the tip!

I figured the mid-afternoon/early evening are prime discussion hours, so I’m gonna sneak this into the news cycle now as opposed to later. Enjoy your pro-Nintendo nonsense, errybody. :]

Since No More Heroes launched on Wii a number of years ago, the franchise has made an appearance on other platforms. Grasshopper has never tried making a game in the franchise for a portable system, however.

Could that change in the future? The short answer is possibly.

In an interview with Eurogamer, Grasshopper CEO Goichi Suda stated that No More Heroes is “one of the most important IPs” for the company. He also provided a coy response when asked if the franchise will move to the 3DS or Vita.

“Lots of things are being cooked up, but I can’t really say much right now. As far as No More Heroes is concerned I consider it one of the most important IPs we have at Grasshopper and hopefully we can announce something for this series next year. I’m sure [series protagonist] Travis is not having a good time being missed, with no announcement this year! …Hmm. Hmmm. That (No More Heroes on 3DS or Vita) *would* be interesting… (with a smile)”

This information comes from Yuji Naka…

“I think ten years later, the various consoles and platforms from Nintendo, Microsoft, and Sony may not exist. Instead of buying specific hardware perhaps everything will migrate to software based systems like PC, iOS, and Android.”

Even though SNS and smartphone games have been on the rise, I just can’t imagine a future without Nintendo consoles in particular. Where would we get out Mario and Zelda fix?!

SEGA is teasing a new game, but, unlike most teasers, they aren’t doing so through a website. The company has posted a mysterious image on their Facebook page that says, “The conclusion of this story will not go beyond the beginning of a different story.”

And that’s it! No word on when the title will be announced, by the way. Perhaps we’ll hear something via Famitsu in a few weeks?
