How Much Are You Paid to Play Video Games?
Ever want to know how much you can actually get paid to play games?
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.
