Just over a week ago a rumor that a new Syphon Filter title may be in development for PS3 surfaced.

Today, some more fuel has been added to that rumor as follows: A particularly watchful, Columbo-esque reader at Kotaku recently put a few widespread pieces of information together to draw an intriguing conclusion - Sony Bend, the studio behind every Syphon Filter title to date, recently put up a help wanted ad calling for a full-time game tools programmer with PS3 or Xbox 360 experience.

But wait, there's more- adding further fuel to the Filter flames is an entry on the Credits page of digital content creation company PCB Productions. About a quarter of the way down the page, the company acknowledges their mo-cap work for Syphon Filter 5, a PS3 title coming out of, you guessed it, Sony Bend.

This one ranks pretty high on the likelihoodometer- we'll be waiting with bated breath to see if Sony will confirm Gabe's triumphant return to home consoles.
