The post itself is missing now, the perfect employee perhaps having been found, but Irrational had one of those annoyingly vague job postings up on the company site, insinuating a sequel to one of the "best loved PC franchises of all time:"

We're hiring!

Off the back of winning game of the show at E3, we're looking for lots of talented people to join us in Australia. We're working on the sequel to one of the best loved PC franchises of all time. I think gamers are going to go nuts when they find out. So, why not come and talk to us about being part of it?

They've pulled this little tease on us before, as I recall, and it just turned out to be Tribes: Vengeance when everyone really wanted System Shock 3. Still, maybe Bioshock's best of E3 showing has convinced some corporate monkeys to hand over the rights to a third Shodan cyberpunk adventure. We can always keep our fingers crossed.FLORIAN ECKHARDT
