Is Microsoft planning on bringing their ultra-popular Halo franchise to the mobile phones? Well, according to a careerbuilder classified ad, they just might be thinking that. The posting is looking for a software development engineer to “deliver a great out-of-game interactive experience that takes the next step beyond the systems found in Halo 3.” The add also wrote that the developer will design and deliver “code for services supporting community applications and game titles.” As well as “building user-facing on-console features such as forums, tournament ladders, media libraries, and integrated mini-games.”

The job description also mentioned what Microsoft plans on doing, it read: “We’re looking to blend console, web, and mobile to create an immersive Halo world that follows the dedicated Halo fan wherever they go. We need engineers that can build connected technology while working in a startup environment.”

We want to make sure you know that this does not mean a Halo game is in the works. The only thing we know is that Microsoft plans on bringing some kind of Halo community aspect to mobile phones. Which could be as simple as seeing your progress by using your phone or something to that nature. Sadly, to me, that’s what it kinda seems like.
