Unemployed? Hudson’s got the game for you!

Cleaning airplanes for minimum wage, a reliable career choice.Is the sagging job market keeping you down? Feeling unemployed, useless, and pathetic? Hudson Entertainment understands, and they want to give you a job. Sort of.  Help Wanted, due out Summer 2009, is an “life-simulation” game where the player has to take on a series of odd jobs to save the planet from a errant meteor.  How exactly working a nine to five cleaning an airliner is going to save the planet from a chunk of cosmic rock isn’t clear, but that plane’s not going to clean itself.  Mini-game collections are a dime a dozen on the Wii, but at least this one seems to have a comical twist.  Hit the jump for the press release.
