The Crossing crosses over to the 360 |
Ó
If you've been staying tuned to our Games for Windows blog, you'd see certain entries about The Crossing popping up from time to time. Aside from the teaser trailer, nothing big has really happened. Yet.
A quick look at Arkane Studios' official website confirms that "the first cross-player-FPS ever" will indeed cross over to the Xbox 360. Yep, now things are looking up (and down, and all around - through space and time). While the game promises to create a new genre by fusing single-player with multiplayer, having it on the 360 (with its Xbox Live empire built strong and stalwart) would be stuff of what only dreams are made of.
How do we know about this crossing over? Well, the site has posted a job opening for 360 programmers. It reads:
After developing Dark Messiah of Might and Magic and Arx Fatalis, Arkane Studios wants to grow with talented developers who share the same passion and dedication to games. If you want to work on The Crossing, our remarkably innovative crossplayer FPS for PC and Xbox360, and you think you can make a difference, you could have a place at Arkane. As an Xbox360 programmer in Arkane Studios, you will handle porting, maintaining, and optimizing the codebase for the Xbox 360 version of the game, developed on the Valve's Source Engine.
Now how's that for some news? We'll bring you guys more info on this game (both versions: PC and 360) as things crop up some more. Details are still sketchy but we're sure to hit on something soon.

The 360 is definitely grabbing the attention of PC developers. MS has done a great job in this area.
I agree and this looks to be a another big selling title for the 360. The 360 really is leading the way now and the list of AAA titles this year is really showing the way forward.
