I have been a die-hard gamer since I can remember. You can imagine my excitement when a buddy of mine told me there was such a thing as a game tester job where you could actually make money from playing video games. What I did not know was that there was a web of greedy scam artists waiting to take the money off newbie game testers desperate for jobs. I wrote this article because I wanted to make sure everyone is aware of this game testing hoax.

My Story

About 2 years ago I was just your average die hard gamer. I would seriously spend anywhere up to 40 hours a week playing games. It was getting tough to hold down my part time job. So one day a buddy of mine tells me he knows this guy who is making like $80 per hour working in a game tester job, beta testing unreleased video games – it sounded more than ideal.

So I decided to go online and did some Google searches for game testing and game tester job. There were heaps of guides promising upwards of $100 per hour jobs and instant offers. I could not believe it and handed over the cash, and waited for the offers to come rolling in. Guess what? And they never did. Actually - only the 1 lame offer for an online PC game paying a measly $10 per hour. I was out of cash, and as you can imagine pretty angry.

So I emailed the guys a few times asking for refunds. I never heard back from them. They did not have a money back guarantee. It was an absolute rip-off! I was so angry and didn’t know what to do next…

I was going to give up, but was still desperate to find this elusive game tester job. Next I jumped on a few forums for video game testers. I came across some pretty cool people - they all recommended the same guide which was encouraging - it had landed them all some decent jobs. So I gave it one last shot, and invested in the guide.

As I said earlier that was over 2 years ago. Today I make a full time income from game testing. I owe it totally to the guide which got me started and helped me land my first few jobs. Its an unbeatable lifestyle - and all you need are a couple of jobs to get you started.

Here’s My Secret

So right now you are probably pretty keen to find out the name of the game tester guide which delivered - right.. Don’t worry I am not going to leave you hanging - I know how much that sux.. The guides name is gamer testing ground review and I strongly recommend you check them out.

There are a few game testers than video game testing demand. Game companies are hiring game testers to find bug and error before the release date to avoid possible refund. Those game companies are earning million of dollars in revenue. They are willing to pay you to test their games to prevent loss in their sales if there is something wrong with their games. If you want to become a game tester you need sources which contain database and guide to become a game tester successfully. Gamer Testing Ground has a database of 50 gaming companies and other valuable sources.

Can you become a video game tester? Before I answer that question you need to understand a few things. If you are willing to spend a full whole day to test game and find bug and error on the game, then you wouldn’t have a problem to become a video game tester. If you have been playing video game since your childhood you should be able to understand how they function. Game companies are willing to pay you to test their games because their game programmers would rather spend the time to tweak and modify their own games. Testing game consumes long hours, if those programmers spend their valuable time testing their own games, no one will do the programming job, so these companies are happy to spend their money to hire someone to test their video games.

You do not need a college degree or programming skill to become a game tester. Game testers are usually people who love and enjoy playing video games and give some advices to the game programmers. You can become a game tester like I mentioned above but you need to know how and where to find these gaming companies and your resume does matter on whether you will get the job.

Gamer Testing Ground provides you a list of companies and led you through the application process. But there are many game testing jobs scams on the internet. You would have to consider wisely before you join them. I suggest you to join well-known gaming companies like Microsoft, Sony Corporation, EA, etc. So you won’t have to worry whether you will get paid or not.

Let me show you how to successfully become a game tester.

To become an Xbox game tester, you have to willing to spend an entire day testing video game and giving feedback to the gaming companies so they can tweak and improve their games. Xbox360 is owned by Microsoft, to become an Xbox game tester you need to own a Xbox360 console. Game testing job is usually home-based work you do not need to travel to the company to test their game, the assignments are send by post mail. This article will define 3 easy steps on how to become an Xbox game tester.

The first step you need to do is to find a source with a database of at least 50 game companies. You also need a guide on the application process. Game companies will decide on your resume whether they want to hire you or not. But a college degree or programming skill is not requiring becoming an Xbox game tester. It depends on how you write your resume. If you can give them a good reason why you want to become their game tester and why they should hire you, you will have a greater chance of becoming a game tester.

Second step, enjoy playing video games is not sufficient enough to become an Xbox game tester. You need to be consistent and willing to spend an entire day to sit in front of your television to test game and another 6 hours to complete the review. It can be a real chore for you if you do not like video games. The job can be tedious for those who don’t enjoy playing video game. For those who like it, you will find it fun and enjoy every moment testing games and earn up to $150 per hour.

Last step, you should be able to finish a game before deadline. Some game companies have a deadline for their game testers to submit their reviews within a specify date usually up to 15 days from the day they receive the game. A copied of the game and survey are usually sent by post mail so you don’t have to collect them at their office. You can send back the review to them by post and keep the game.

Disciplinary and consistency are a must have characteristic as a game tester. Since Microsoft releases a lot of games every months, as an Xbox game tester should be able to accomplish and provide accurate feedback of the tested game to them on time.

Is the local retailer’s game testing system becoming your primary console? Have you resorted to subscribing to game magazines just to play the included demos? Are you having to go on a forced Ready Rice diet because you can not afford to buy the latest games? Now you don’t have to, in this article we will examine ways for consumers to save money when purchasing video games.

Avoid Buying From Offline Retailers

One of the most worst things you can do as a consumer is to buy games, especially if they are not new, from a local retail outlet. Most of the games within these stores are overpriced even after you factor in the discount that you will get from the advertised sale price or the savings through the store’s discount card. If you have too, then its best to buy a game from the pre-owned section. Pre-owned games are generally in good condition and cost 20 % less then their counterparts, just remember to inspect the game box for any missing game manuals and the game disc for scratches.

Search For Online Deals

As a consumer your first choice should be eBay. Generally used games on eBay are much cheaper than the major retailer’s pre-owned selection and occasionally you do find good deals. Instead of bidding on a single title you should instead try to win a lot of 10 to 50 games. Keep the games that you need from the lot and auction off the rest. Lots are generally more cheaper, on a per game bases, and in my experience these sellers do not gouge buyers on shipping costs. Also when using eBay be sure to use Paypal as the payment option. Paypal issues, several times during the year, coupons which can be used when paying for eBay items, these coupons offer an additional saving of 5 - 10% and are usually found in eBay’s monthly newsletters. There are also online sites such as pricegrabber.com and dealrush.com that display weekly deals from all the major video game retailers. An advantage to using these sites is that they are updated daily meaning you can stop having to rely on the Sunday flyers to find deals. Apart from these sites you can also save money by purchasing used games from members on the various gaming forums (such as cheapassgamer.com) that you may participate in. Just be sure that the forum members that you trade with have a high iTrader rating.

Have Patience

Game prices fall dramatically within a span of four months. Therefore, you should consider waiting a couple of months before buying a new game. Apart from saving you money this approach also allows you to get a better idea of how good the game is and if its worth owning.

Rent If Broke

So why should you rent games? Because its cheap and it provides you the ability to test new games. Most of the latest games appear on the renting shelves within the first two weeks of the initial release date, and given that most major retailers charge only $4-$8 for a game rental, this is the perfect opportunity to test, review and hopefully finish the game. Renting works especially well if you just need to play the latest games without caring too much about owning a personal copy. Remember, you can always buy your favorite rented games later on in the year when they cost a fraction of the original price.

Sell Your Games After You Finish Them

As a broke gamer the worst thing you could is start a collection, especially with new releases. Most new games fall dramatically in price within the first few months, so its vital that you sell your new games as soon as possible. Remember, you can always rent games, either when company comes over or at times when you are bored. This method will not only provide you with additional revenue but will also insure that you are able to play the latest releases.
