Game developers aren't automatically gamers. They create the game and test it the best way they can, but they don't fill all the gaps. Their thoughts are fixed on creating a successful product that has to satisfy the customer.



Gamers have their own way of thinking and so they see the game in their own, non economical way, except for the purchasing price off course.

This creates the need for game developers to find and fix errors where their own personnel can't. Gamers find the most glitches in a game, that is just a hard proven fact.

When you visit a regular gaming forum you can find a lot of posts of gamers reporting flaws. Other gamers post in the same topic until the place becomes a hot spot with the hope the game developers will do something about it.

Sometimes it gets really ugly in those forums and because of that the game developers lose reputation and with that some profits too.

Paint yourself a picture here. When gamers find an error in a game, they get irritated. Not only do they get irritated, they talk about it to other gamers, friends and acquaintances. If these people were considering to buy the game, guess what? Most of them don't want to buy the game until the problem is fixed.

Game developers know about these things and off course they would like to increase the satisfaction level of their customers and the profits of their company so they actually hire gamers to test their games before the games get published. We call these games 'beta games'.

When video beta game testers test games and find errors, they report it to the game developers, the developers process and fix the problem, create a patch, and upgrade the game. Just like that.

These new job opportunities are received with open arms. Off course the idea of getting paid to test games is very welcome to a lot of people, but the results of the concept are even better.

With the help of video game testers a video game starts its path with much more success. The forums are calmer and the overall customer is more satisfied with off course the everlasting exception of a few people, but that is nothing new.

So, where can you go to become such a video game tester? There are some sources to check out, but beware, there are many people out there that will try to fool you and rob you of some money and your trust in other sources that might just be what you were looking for.

I have created a website and did some research for you, so that you only deal with the sources that have been checked. At the same time you can learn about the advantages and the disadvantages of being a game tester.
