Heh, I dont match any of the criteria on the jobs board
Though of course maybe we can just hand in the mod as proof of experience!
I doubt it will be X-Wing, at least not as we know it. It will without doubt be a cross platform job, which means a poor port over to pc (if it comes on pc). Only a fraction of the control and functionality and who knows, maybe even no cockpit view, rather a chase view or maybe even top down style shooter. If Jedi Starfighter is anything to go by, it'll be poor.
Who knows though, we could be wrong. Though from previous contacts and discussions within Totally Games, that particular studio has now ceased and they were the original team behind the series. That leaves us with a new approach to the game, probably borrowing very little from the TG crew, if anything. That could either be a good thing or a bad thing, depending on your point of view.
Plenty of fans have posted for a sequel though over the years, and they have been showing a renewd interest in reviving some of their old IP. Be interesting to see how long this takes to develop and what trickles of info we get.
Bite my shiny metal Tie Fighter!
