It looks like Crytek, the developer behind Crysis and the original Far Cry, has the PlayStation Portable in its sights.
A job listing on its website reveals that the company is looking for a PSP Programmer to work in its Budapest office.
The company recently said that it won't be working on further PC exclusives (after Crysis: Warhead's done, at least) but working on a PSP game is a pretty huge leap. The two games that it has under its belt are top end PC shooters and a long way from the sort of titles it's possible to make for the PSP.
Given the reluctance that the company has shown to port Crysis to consoles, it seems unlikely that Crytek would go ahead and take the game to the PSP. A Far Cry PSP game is a possibility, but given the company's lack of involvement with the franchise since the first game, that also doesn't seem too likely. That leaves us with either an entirely different property or some kind of experiment with the PSP's technology.
