Bethesda hiring 'future generation console programmer'  Bethesda
Game Studios is hiring a programmer for "future generation
consoles." Though the job listing is left fairly vague, it does
confirm that yet another developer is starting to plan ahead for
consoles that have yet to be announced.  The job listing is for
a specific project, which Bethesda and parent company ZeniMax
Media calls an "unannounced game." It asks for experience
programming and optimizing for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3,
and calls DirectX 11 experience a plus.  We've seen drips and
rumors of the next Xbox coming, but less so for the next
PlayStation iteration. Still, the specs of the two will probably
be reasonably similar, so as long as Bethesda has an outline of
one it could be starting development for a game that will appear
on both. Now all that's left is for Microsoft and Sony to
actually announce them.
