Neversoft Hiring For An 'Action Shooter'

Hey, awesome. Long-time Guitar Hero developer Neversoft Entertainment appears to be working on a new shooter. Super sleuth website superannuation has discovered a recent LinkedIn job listing from the studio asking for an experienced level builder to "work on [a] new action shooter game." It's required that the builder must be able to "build realistic 3D levels and environments." 
 

oh no

nice! more westerns please!

yikes...

Guess Activision saw how well Red Dead Redemption was doing and decided to make Neversoft make a new wild west game. Then they'll release a new one each year with a gun peripheral. 

Gun was a pretty good game.  No Red Dead Redemption, but it was great to see a western game and they at least attempted the sandbox approach.

really oh i guess its going to call of the war hero lol 

I thought Neversoft recently said they were now a 100% Guitar Hero studio?

Guitar Hero action shooter spin off. Confirmed.

Well, whatever it is, it'll be nice to see Neversoft doing something else for a while...even if they do end up going back to Guitar Hero.

When Neversoft strayed from Tony Hawk before it tended to turn out pretty cool, except Apocalypse. Spider-man for PS1 was a great game and Gun is also really solid, Red Dead Redemption shows it up in every possible way but Gun was pretty cool when it came out. 
 
I'm happy to see they are not doomed to a Guitar Hero fate, probably thanks to the failing interest in that franchise. Though this could very well be them assisting with a Call of Duty game, that would be my guess, just like Raven. But hey, maybe the success of Red Dead Redemption has put dollar signs in Activision's eyes for a Gun sequel.

First Person Tony Hawk Rocker Simulator. All the parents will be up in arms about this one.

Gun 2, yes please!

interesting

They wanna ride on the Red Dead-wave huh? Gun was a decent game, but such a venture would end in tears.

I really hope it's GUN 2. I had fond memories of the first game.

Tony Hawks answer to Skate 2 ?

Here is hoping Western games becomes a current trend.

I have a hard time believing this is anything other than Gun 2 which is just fine with me.

Because obviously we need more shooters.
