Why You Can Get Paid to Play Games
Discover how a 19 year old gamer managed to secure a job as a video game tester and get paid to play games with next to no technical skills.
Who Am I?
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 Game Tester Guide. 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.
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.
