L.A.-based PCB Productions has listed Syphon Filter 5 among their studios credits for facial motion capture work they’ve supposedly done.
They list the game for PlayStation 3 with Sony Bend leading development. A job listing for a ”Sr. Game Tools Programmer” adds weight to the affair, with next-gen experience required.
”We’re looking for talented Game Tools Programmers. If you love working on great games and want to live in beautiful Central Oregon, then check this out and apply ASAP!”, reads the job listing.
Formerly known as Eidetec, Bend Studio handles the Syphon Filter brand with the last three in the series releasing on PSP.
PCB Productions’ credit page shows a large collection of videogames they’ve worked on and most seem to be in ”dialog production” for the developers.

Third-party collaborators and online retail sites are likely the bane of all videogames publishers for blowing the surprise sky high for ‘secret’ projects.
