Lord of the Rings Online dev looking at console MMOs?

Turbine Studios, the team behind Lord of the Rings Online: Shadows of Angmar,is advertising for a new senior console engineer for ei⛎ther theX🥃box 360 or PS3.

No specific games are ment✤ioned in the vacancyfeatured on the company's own website, but it does call for the applicant to be involved with updating Turbine's own MMO engine and tools to consoles.

The engin𒀰ecurrently supports both Dungeons and Dragons: Stormreach and Lord of the Rings Online.

Turbine has also recent🔯ly received a cash injection of $40 million to develop new properties and foster development. Is t𒐪he timing of these two occurencespurely a coincidence?

We certainly imagine $40m could go some way toward solꦏving the problems LotRO executive producer told us about when heౠ discussed.
