Call of Duty, Spider-Man Headed to PS3
Job postings substantiate the inevitable.
by Jeremy Dunham
January 28, 2006 - Popular videogame career sites have recently updated their job boards with various employment listings for the respected Treyarch development studio. The jobs in question (Programmer, Tools Programmer, and Graphics Programmer) are all needed for two upcoming Activision-published projects, Spider-Man and Call of Duty. Though both companies are certainly known for their work on those franchises, the interesting thing about the classified ad is that they are exclusively aimed at recruiting for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions of the games.
Sadly nothing else about the two titles is known right now. But with Spider-Man 3 slated to hit movie theaters in 2007 and a videogame version already confirmed to be in development (see this story from 2004 for the full details), Spider-Man PS3 is most likely Spider-Man 3 (in fact, we're 99.9% sure of it). The Call of Duty PS3 project, on the other hand, could be anything -- either a spin-off like the Treyarch-produced "Big Red One" or a port of the foreseeable Call of Duty 3. Our money's on the former.
We'll eventually watch the movie on our PS3s... and apparently we'll play it too.
Should any news relating to either of these titles surface in the near future, we'll fill you in.
