If you are unemployed and have game designing abilities, you might consider getting a job at Ubisoft. According to 1up.com, the French-based developer is hiring someone to be the game designer for the next Red Steel. This may come as a surprise, as the first Red Steel was not even launched in all regions.

If you feel you are qualified for a game designer job at Ubisoft, just log on to their website, click on Career and fill in the application. If you get this job, you won't get into game designing just yet. As I can translate from the job description, you will have to assist the person in charge of game design and you must be experimented in playing online games and RPGs. This add is pretty vague but I tell you that I won't apply for sure, as the job is based in Paris.

In the game, you will see Tokai trying to take control of all six Yakuza clans. Opposite him is Scoot Monroe who tries to persuade them to join him in his fight against Tokai. Who will be the victor is up to you to decide. The main characters of the game are Scott Monroe (the main character), Miyu (Scott's finacee), Isao Sato (Miyu's father), Tokai (Scott's Arch nemesis), Harry Tanner (who teaches players how to use firearms) and Otori (a former Yakuza member who teaches players katana combat).

What is interesting about Red Steel is the A.I., the game being described by the Official Nintendo magazine as follows: "In Red Steel, you genuinely feel like you're in a shoot-out with an enemy who's actually thinking".
