The Best Video Game Career - Start Now With No Training!

Want to get into the video game industry and start earning a living being part of game development? Well, then the best videogame career for you is definitely "professional video game tester".

Being a paid game tester is the best chance you have of getting your foot in the door of the gaming industry. If your foot can stay there long enough, you're whole body will follow soon after and you'll actually be earning money from video games!

No Training Is Needed...

If you're 18 years old, have a next-gen console or high-end computer, a valid social security number, at least a few years experience with video games, decent writing/grammar/spelling, and a good eye for detail, then you QUALIFY to start a gaming career as a professional beta game tester!

What to Expect...

Game testing is more or less an entry level position; so don't expect to be earning piles and piles of cash when you start.

Most testers can make between about $9-$12 per hour when they begin this video game career. As he/she earns more experience, more doors will open up and more money can be earned. But until that time comes, the tester must stick with it until he can prove his worth to the game developers.

When to Start This Video Game Career...

If you want, you can start right now. All you have to do is find game developers that are hiring and apply for a position. The more places you apply, the better your chances are of being hired on as a video game tester. Admittedly, it won't be easy finding places to apply to when you first get out there -- but then again, that's what the internet is for!


These are the most efficient classes in my opinion. It all depends on your game-play so this can differ from person to person.Modern Warfare and you can always search the site for more useful information about this game.
