Haha!

Benefits not really you still can apply, it's just that Ubi has less of the mentioned cathegories and is looking to get more of those... doesnt mean you wouldnt be called... try your luck

What day/time do these playtests happen? I'm presuming they're outside of the usual M-F 9-5 work hours.

I'm not sure if I'm the best judge for Ubisoft games, however. The only Ubisoft-developed game that I can actually remember playing for any lengthy period of time is Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - Turtles In Time Reshelled (and mainly because I was a big fan of Konami's SNES version). My general taste in games is very much more japanese-y; 2D fighters, turn-based strategy, puzzle/visual novels.

Or maybe that would make me an ideal candidate for judging Ubisoft games?

Best Ubisoft game and most fun I have had in a long time, Rayman Legends for the 360, favorite stage the rock song one. Man what a fun game. It would have been awesome to test games for Ubisoft.

Usually the time is 10am to 3pm on weekdays... it might differ from projects to projects... you get to have an hour free for the lunch time you can go eat at various resto around here, or decide to go eat in the Lounge with employees... you can pop me a msg and I'll go meet ya at the lounge during lunch time to keep you company haha

Why woudlnt you be an ideal candidate? You like video games? Then There you go! Whethere you didnt like a single ubi game or all... your opinion is always important... in fact if you never liked a single ubi game I'm guessing your opinion would be even more valuable... What would ubisoft game requires for you to Like and buy ubisoft games? Thats what they would surely want to know

Damn I should apply! :P I would love to play test stuff for Ubi.

well please do, getting paid to play unreleased games and give your opinion... you never know, next time you play the game you might see those suggestions actually being in the game.
