How to Become a Video Game Tester

This is a new blog that i just opened about getting jobs as a video game tester. I will also be reviewing some video games. If anyone would like me to purchase a game and review it before you buy, just let me know.(It would probably be better to just rent the game yourself, but i will do it for you if you would like). For my first post i found a couple of articles on how to become a video game tester. Check them out.

You can't just browse the jobs section of the classifieds to find companies looking to hire game testers for the latest games. You actually have to go straight to the companies that develop games and let them know who you are, what your gaming skills are and why you would be a great video game tester.

Make sure to present yourself in a professional manner. At the same time, don't be afraid to brag about how many games and consoles you own and how many hours a day you spend gaming. Experience counts! http://ezinearticles.com/?Become-A-Video-Game-Tester-In-3-Easy-Steps&id=375873

One of the first things you can do is participate in public beta tests for popular video games. This will allow you to become familiar with what a game tester actually may do on a daily basis. The great thing about beta testing is that it can be done from home in your spare time. As a bonus, often you will be able to get the final version of the game for free or at a reduced price. You may also be able to work at home for some game tester jobs but it's not extremely common for this to happen, certainly not for a full time employment. It is possible to find some part-time work at home testing games.
