Say you were to jump a sweet speedboat off an even sweeter ramp, then climb onto that speedboat and shoot a rocket at a dude in a tower (which is a real thing that happens in Just Cause 2 ) for 15 to 20 hours. Afterward, if someone asked you how much more time you wanted to spend doing things like that, we imagine the answer would be “a lot.” Perhaps it’s no coincidence, then, that that’s exactly how much DLC lead designer Peter Johansson tells Eurogamer is coming to the Just Cause 2: “a lot.” And that’s on top of all the content already on the game disc, which, by all external signs, is pretty darn imposing

Sony may have a 10 year plan for PS3, and Microsoft may be extending the life of the 360 with Project Natal — heck, even Nintendo has repeatedly stated it’s sticking with the Wii — but Square Enix is reading between the lines and gearing up for the next generation of gaming regardless. IGN spotted a listing over at the official Square Enix website that seeks a variety of technical positions “in anticipation of the appearance of next generation platforms.” From 3D graphics core programmers to technical artists (and pretty much everything in between), the new hires will be charged with development of a “new generation game engine development project” — presumably the next iteration of the company’s Crystal Tools game engine.

Square notes the intention of this early development as “for competing beyond the level of the world’s powerful developers,” though we should note that you kinda sorta have to move to Tokyo if you’re interested in applying for such a lofty position
