Hey, my name's Brian Matthews and I get paid to play video games!

As for who I am (I know you're curious!) I'm just your average Joe that's been obsessed with games since he was about 4. I heard you could get a job in the video game field as a tester even right out of high school, but no one was exactly pointing the way for me.

So I took a stab at some of the programs online and found a great one called Gamer Testing Ground. Now I spend my days chilling and playing video games.

Well, not just chilling and playing video games, I also attend DeVry University where I'm working on my degree in Game and Simulation Programming. I also play some games for free, like Farmville- one of my favorite things is looking up Farmville strategy guides lately

Thought I'd share my experience both as a tester and as a genuine video game fanatic, since so many people wonder if you can really get paid to play games.
