some common questions
1. What are the benefits of a Video Game Tester?
Hmm Ok... here goes:
You Get to Play Video Games!
You Get Paid to Play Video Games!
You Get Paid to Play Unreleased Games before anyone else!
You Get Free copies of Video Games!
You Get access to cheat codes, level secrets, and other "bugs" that only game testers know about.
2. Can I still go to school, or work my 9-5 job, what about Education requirements?
...
Most testing jobs don't require formal education.
You get paid $10-$120 per hour.
You can play as much or as little as you like.
3. Why would companies pay me to beta test games?
When you think about it, the game industry is now over a $50 billion dollar business.
Of course these companies want to test their products before they are released! If they pay you $60/hr to find game glitches that would otherwise hurt their $50 billion dollars a year, I'd say they're getting a bargain!
